Product Insights
The Simons Maison Soft-Close Smooth Feel Trash Can is a compact 2-gallon bin designed for narrow bathroom gaps, featuring a matte finish that hides fingerprints and water spots while resisting peeling thanks to a protective inner bucket. Its integral soft-close pedal ensures quiet operation, but the lid automatically closes on release and requires holding the pedal to stay open. The plastic shell is susceptible to permanent yellowing from UV light and harsh chemicals; hence, only damp cloth cleaning is recommended and bleach, strong solvents, and abrasive sprays must be avoided.

Deep Research
How much it holds and where it fits
- Calculating a cylinder from the 8.25-inch diameter and 9.75-inch height yields about 2.2 gallons (8.5 L); allowing for the inner bucket’s wall thickness and lid clearance, usable capacity lands near 2 gallons or 8 liters — ideal for daily bathroom refuse like tissues and wrappers, not kitchen scraps.
- At just under 21 cm across, the bin's footprint fits into the narrow gap between a toilet and vanity, where even a 12-inch clearance leaves room for the lid to operate without wall interference — making the diameter the key dimension for placement in compact powder rooms or ensuite baths.
How the matte plastic holds up in a bathroom
- White plastic in bathrooms with any natural light can slowly yellow over months or years because UV light triggers photooxidation in polymer chains, creating yellow-toned degradation products — this is a well-documented behavior for commodity plastics like polypropylene and polyethylene, so placing the can out of direct sun or behind a window film will prolong its crisp white look.
- The matte finish is integral to the plastic — it's achieved through a textured mold rather than an applied coating — which means there's no separate paint layer to chip or peel; the satin texture will only smooth out with repetitive heavy friction, and even then the color remains consistent throughout the material.
- Cleaning white matte plastic with bleach, strong solvents, or abrasive bathroom sprays can accelerate polymer oxidation and cause permanent yellowing — sticking to the manufacturer's damp-cloth approach, as recommended, avoids chemically stressing the material and helps maintain even coloring.
- Because the inner bucket lifts out for emptying, the outer matte shell rarely needs to be handled or moved, which keeps it free of the scuffs, fingernail marks, and daily wear that typically age a bathroom bin's finish.

Q&A
3 answered- Is the inner bin made of the same matte plastic and is it easy to clean?
- Yes, the inner bin is made of the same matte-finish plastic as the exterior. It's removable for easy emptying and can be wiped clean with a damp cloth — plastic with a matte finish is generally low-maintenance to clean.
- Does the lid stay open when you step on the pedal, or does it close immediately when you release?
- The lid is designed with a soft-close system, which means it closes automatically and gently when you release the pedal — it does not stay open on its own. However, you can hold the pedal down to keep it open while you toss items in.
- Does the matte finish resist fingerprints and water spots?
- The matte finish helps hide fingerprints and water spots better than high-gloss plastic, but it is not specially treated to be smudge-resistant. A quick wipe with a damp cloth will restore its clean appearance.
