Brabantia has always been a premium quality home ware for many years. The first time we saw this was in Harbourfront centre where they have a stand-alone booth in HomeFix that has a frontage. But it seens like a far fetch at $100+ for a trash can.
The price justifies when the item is made of high grade stainless steel with a 10 year mechanism warranty. Meaning, after many many years this bin is still alive and kicking. Bins are made of Steel instead of plastic which generate toxic when product and dispose. I specially like the idea of buying very durable goods rather than cheap & "disposable" goods that you have to throw away all the time. Disposables are never eco-friendly.
Last weekend, while grocery shopping in JASON's market place, this bin RRP $118 is discount for only $39.90 with minimum $30 purchase!! We grab it like PRC in LV.

The new Brabantia Matte Steel Pedal Bin Fingerprint Proof's whisper lid ensures silent closing. The lid can stay-open position when manually operated - smart hinge. Corrosion resistant - keeps its beauty for a very long time. Body and lid made of high-grade chromium steel or steel plate with Galfan coating. Removable plastic inner bucket. Special top rim - completely hides bin liner for a nice look. Sturdy metal carrying grip. Protective plastic base - prevents damage to the floor. Fingerprint Proof: A special coating that makes fingerprints nearly invisible and the products easy to clean. No matter what your color scheme is, you can find a Fingerprint Proof Pedal Bin from Brabantia that will work well with your room décor. For instance, the Fingerprint Proof Pedal Bins (in 5, 12, 20 and 30 liter sizes) look good with any type of room furniture, and add a classic and clean look to any living or working space. Its solid-metal lid opens by stepping on the pedal mechanism--convenient for when your hands are full or you want to keep them clean and germ-free. Then, instead of banging shut, the lid closes with nearly silent operation. It can also be set to stay open thanks to its sturdy nylon hinge design and will withstand 30,000 open and close cycles. Other highlights include a patented top rim for an odor-proof seal, corrosion-resistant high-quality materials, a non-skid base to keep the can steady even on wet or polished floors, and a plastic floor ring to protect floors from scratches, as well as a sturdy carrying handle and a fingerprint-proof finish that decreases smudges and keeps the steel looking shiny and new. In addition, the can offers a plastic inner bucket with ventilation holes for easy cleanup and removal of the custom bin liners (available separately).
