Questions people ask
Which colour lid do I get?
The colour field says silver and the title offers coloured lids, so it is worth confirming before ordering.
Does it have a pedal?
No, it is a touch top: press the lid and it opens and closes itself.
Is the capacity correct?
Yes. The dimensions give 101 litres of external volume for a 50 litre capacity.
Can I wash it?
There is no inner bucket, so it is wiped rather than washed.
Why is it seventh?
Because it is the best value here, and the colour field is ambiguous on a product sold in colours.
How many ratings does it have?
1126 at the time of collection, averaging 4.4 stars, with 72 per cent five-star and 8 per cent one-star.
