Ooh I love these! Yes I know that sounds strange but a bin is usually a dull necessity. These are stylish, well designed and have a sensible handle incorporated into the body. As they are so slim they tuck into corners, under desks and down by the sink. Yes, you've guessed it, I bought several to coordinate with different rooms. Bags will fit into them but the inside surface is so strong and smooth they are easy to wipe out. The outside is slightly textured so does not show fingerprints. Not only a workhorse but a work of art! Fantastic value for money

I'd originally ordered a white wooden bin from elsewhere but when it arrived it was damaged, so I was looking for a better alternative. I didn't want a pedal bin but something stylish in either silver/grey or white, so was really pleased when I spotted this bin. It fits neatly under a small dressing table, is easy to move around and empty, and easy to keep clean. It's not the hugest of bins but it suits my needs very well and looks fab.

Fits into a small space nicely. Useful shape. Waterproof and easy to clean. Sadly, we now know plastic and similar material is not environmentally friendly. Nevertheless, I had a strong reason to need the practicality of this bin and it has worked out well for me. Hope the handle doesn’t break at a later date - but if contents are heavy, there is no need to lift this bin by the handle. Great purchase!

I have 4 of these, they blend into a room really well. Easy to clean and carry. The best bin I’ve owned so far. The first one must have had something heavy drop into it as the base cracked, it’s still useable though. The base could do with being stronger. However, it ticked all the boxes for what I was looking for in a bin. It just fits in anywhere, I like that it’s slim and not a round bin.

Needed a small bin to fit in a tight space where the sofa and wall is (everyone has a small space like that) well, this bin fitted perfectly, so it is nicely out the way. Made from really good quality plastic it isn't flimsy at all. The handle is a perfect size for your hand to be able to grab and lift it too. It is also surprising how much rubbish it can hold also. Really pleased with it.

So my Mrs ordered this and at first I thought what is he point as we already had a regular circle bin? However as we place the bin behind the door the slimmer the bin the less it gets in the way of the door when fully opened. You hardly notice the bin is there which is great! Definitely recommend, the capacity is compromised a bit which is why it isn't 5 star.

Brought 2 for recycling/waste in my room. They both fit perfectly into an awkward space, can be pulled out of said awkward space by the handle, and fit a supermarket carrier bag for a lining.Update: I’m still using these, 2 years and 2 house moves on. They’re still great for awkward spaces. They are also water-tight if you ever need to throw up in them (...)

This is the second Skinny Bin I’ve bought as they’re perfect for bathrooms. Great capacity given the narrow depth, the bin fits neatly into improbably small gaps and is perfect for tissues, toilet roll cardboard etc. Easy to grab by the handle and easy to clean. Arrived speedily and earlier than expected. The Pearl white colour is very attractive.

Exactly what I wanted. Slim and modern. Fits under my desk perfectly without taking up much space at all. Another review on this site said that the colour is transluscent; it's not entirely opaque but it's not transparent either. It's advertised as being 'Metallic White' - it's not, it's just, well, plasticy white. But in an attractive way.

Liked that it was slim and good for between toilet and wall in a small powder room. However, I did feel it was very lightweight and the white was a bit on the translucent side. I was expecting a thicker plastic which was more clearly white but the thinner plastic was more translucent. It’s still nice, but different than what I had imagined.

Very convenient size and shape. Fits into small spaces and useful as a small waste bin or for recycling. Difficult to find bins of this size so very satisfied.Would like to see a taller option but this was good for what we needed - an end of counter bin for small recycling.Quality is good and is still being used today (3 years later).

Not much to say on this...this is better value than the not dissimilar wooden counterpart I purchased from the Umbra range...while it is not as aesthetically pleasing as the wooden bin, it is certainly good value and very modern, so it does what it says on the tin. Also very practical for narrow spaces such as by the side of beds etc.

Not much you can say about a bin really, other than that it's a striking, unusual design, a lovely bright colour, and perfect for slotting into a small space. Its slim shape means it won't hold much but it's perfect for a bedroom and means that the teenager now has somewhere to put his sweet wrappers that isn't the nearest drawer.

Very slim so a very good shape to fit into a small space and not have to devote too much precious room space to it. I have it in my son's bedroom and for that reason I thought grey would be a good colour, 'masculine'. However, in a bedroom the cream would have looked better, the grey looks officey. Good value for the price.

I love these, I wait to see them go on sale/price drop though. This brand tends to run a bit overpriced imho but when it's an add-on item I snatch them up. Fits a standard grocery store sized bag and is great for fitting in-between spaces which I have to do because my cats are overly curious about whatever's in the bin ?
