Really happy with this bin

"Really happy with this bin space saving and compact easy to clean and looks great. I had a problem with my bin self opening reported and I was sent a replacement in under 1 week. Excellant customer service really happy thank you Shirley"

— Shirley S. (5/5)

I love my new bin

"I love my new 40L stainless-steel bin. It's perfect for putting my recycling in the bottom compartment and then general rubbish and the food caddy insert in the top. Looks smart in my new kitchen. Too early to see how good and how long the special odour feature will last"

— Sammie T. (5/5)

The best waste & recycling bin I’ve had

"Fabulous waste bin. It took me months to make the decision due to the cost being so high. But am glad I purchased it, although I bought the wrong colour. Its compact every thing goes in the one System, it doesn’t smell due to the filter. Even food waste tub fits snugly inside and out of the way. I had the old stacking waste bins with the sliding lids but the plastic had become brittle and cracked. Love it P. S. I wasn’t happy at the time it took to arrive !!"

— Cath S. (5/5)

Loving my new waste system

"I am so pleased with my new kitchen bin. The word bin doesn’t do it justice! It’s slick & functional and a blooming gorgeous addition to my kitchen."

— Debbie W. (5/5)

It’s worth the money; I

"It’s worth the money; I did consider other brands, but I specifically needed this color because it matches my décor. It’s very convenient—no need to fuss with multiple compartments—and it looks beautiful."

— Sana K. (5/5)

The best bin ever !

"We previously had one of these and it has been the best bin ever , perfect neat size and even matches our kitchen exactly, many asking ‘did it come with the kitchen ! So was very sad after 3 or 4 years regular use the hinge to the top bin was beyond repair, So there was no question of replacing with another type of bin as we cannot fault the Joseph Joseph 40L totem bin apart from perhaps a stronger hinge so we just ordered the same and it so good to have it , just love it !"

— Catherine P. (5/5)

Great bin and lovely colour

"Perfect size for our new home and the colour matched perfectly, really good quality. Easy to order and arrived quickly. Would definitely recommend this company."

— Lee N. (5/5)

poor lid mechanism

"lid is poor, takes multiple attempts to close .. actually thinking about returning it"

— A B. (5/5)

Perfect waste bin

"We love it. Fits perfect in our kitchen. Has the perfect high and you could clearly see and feel its quality. rather then 3 bins. We now have a 3 in 1. We couldn’t ask for more"

— Valentina R. (5/5)

The Perfect Solution for my kitchen waste and recycling

"I couldn’t be more pleased with my Stone Totem Max Waste Bin. It is a perfect fit and does its job perfectly! Personally I prefer to use the food waste bin separately to the main bin and empty it straight away. No smells or mess that way and it tucks away neatly away under my sink. It has good size bins and I can recommend it highly."

— Mary G. (5/5)
