3 L Acrylic Waste Basket with a Swing Lid That Stays Open, 500 g

Every bin in the shop is built for a kitchen. The place you actually want one is beside a desk, and there a big bin is just a big bin with three tissues in it.

What Are the Key Features of This 3 L Acrylic Bin's Swing Lid That Stays Open?

• 3 L, the smallest bin we stock - beside a desk or in a small bathroom you empty it every day or two anyway, so more litres would only mean rubbish waiting longer.
• Takes a bread bag as a liner - at this size an ordinary bag you already have does the job, so this room stops needing bin bags bought for it.
• The swing lid can be left open - prop it while you clear a drawer or sort paperwork, then let it fall shut and the contents are hidden again.
• Acrylic, not soft plastic - a hard glossy surface that wipes back to a shine instead of scuffing chalky where chair legs and shoes brush past it.
• 500 g - lifted with two fingers and emptied one-handed, which is the real reason a small bin gets emptied at all.

Where Can You Use This Small Acrylic Waste Basket?

• Between the wall and the leg of a desk
• In the corner behind a door
• At the end of a narrow bathroom counter
• In a bedroom, or a hotel room
• Beside an office desk, where a big bin holds three tissues

Why Does Acrylic Stay Glossy When Ordinary Plastic Turns Chalky?

• Acrylic stays glossy where plastic goes chalky - a small bin is always in view, and a cloth brings the shine straight back.
• Skip the liner entirely - 3 L of paper and tissue tips straight into the kitchen bin, so this room need never be lined at all.
• A bin for rooms that never had one - 3 L takes so little floor that a bedroom, a home office or a hotel room can each keep their own.

Material & Build

• Acrylic - a hard glossy sheet, the material used for pieces that sit out on show rather than hidden in a cupboard. One correction stated openly: you may see this bin called stainless steel elsewhere. The material specification says acrylic, and acrylic is what we follow - the other wording is being corrected.
• Swing lid that can be left standing open - propped for a long job, then dropped shut.
• Works with or without a liner - an ordinary bread bag fits.

Dimensions

• Capacity: 3 L - the smallest capacity in our whole range of bins.

Colours

• Beige, black and white - three finishes on a piece that stands in the open beside a desk or on a bathroom counter.

Care

• Wipe the acrylic with a damp cloth; it takes the gloss back.
