Utility and Convenience

Pros:

  • "The new garbage can is out of the way, uses disposable garbage bags as liners, and has a top to keep garbage securely in place."
  • "It’s very convenient and makes your car look so much better than a floorboard full of trash."
  • "I like hanging it on my front seat so it’s easily accessible, but that does mean I have to move it every time someone sits in the front seat."
  • "I use small plastic grocery bags as liners which work fine."
  • "Fits great in between the console or the car, holds plenty and is easy to clean out."
  • "The hook is perfect. Ended buying 2 more for family presents!"
  • "It holds trash without contact with the hands. How awesome is this!"
  • "It’s super easy to use and even if you end up having to replace the bag they provide you with extras."

Cons:

  • "I'm only giving 2 stars because you can't put a bag in it."
  • "It doesn’t do too well free standing."
  • "I personally don’t like anything hanging off my seat."
  • "A lot smaller than I expected, and super flimsy!"
  • "Have to remove this from behind the passenger seat headrest when we have anyone sit in the back seat."
  • "It's not huge, but it's the right size for tissues, papers, or a couple of cans."
  • "It is not rigid enough — the sides are very soft/floppy even with the plastic boning to reinforce them."
  • "I had to air out this thing for a week. When I opened it from the plastic bag it smelled terribly of cigarette smoke."

  • "It works well for its intended purpose."
  • "I think it’s cute and holds A LOT more garbage than you think can fit."
  • "It’s well made and I'm satisfied with it."

Cons:

  • "All the photos show a trash receptacle with rigid sides, so that is what I thought I was purchasing."
  • "Bags fit weirdly so you have some spaces where garbage can seep through."
  • "The item came very quick, it almost seemed like next day delivery which was super awesome of them."
  • "It's a pretty nice garbage can for the car, fits perfectly between my front seats."
  • "The item looked ok, but it collapses in on itself and does not look the the picture."
  • "The splints go in easy enough to help it keep it's shape."
  • "I love the concept, VERY nice bag, but these two side support pieces are HORRIBLE trying to get them in."
