Brabantia waste bins: More than a guarantee
I recently bought a new pedal bin for our flat and chose the Brabantia 30 litre pedal bin.
At this point some of you might be thinking, “A pedal bin? Just go down to Target and buy one. You even get a bonus bin!” You, my friends, are the reason why most pedal bins break after 1 - 2 years of use.
Brabantia bins are more expensive than your other options (much more so in the US than in the UK), but they have a 10-year guarantee. Yes, a 10-year guarantee. For a pedal bin. According to the seductive copy on their company history page, it’s more than a guarantee, it’s what drives the company.
I bought one the very next day. After buying it I discovered a few other features that made me even happier about my purchase:
- Ventilation openings in the inner bucket that prevents a vacuum from forming when removing the bin liner
- Non-skid base
- Plastic floor ring to keep the bin from scratching the floor
If you’re looking for a new kitchen waste bin, look no further than Brabantia. Unfortunately, they seem to be rather difficult to find in the United States, but a search on Shopping.com revealed a few online venders.
