Spec me a classy looking kitchen bin

[craptakular]

I got a Joseph and Joseph totem pole one. Just don't tell people at work you spent£150 on a bin. They still mention it a year on

Why dont you get an undersink bin, then you wont have too see it

To be honest I'd favour a solution where we didn't need a bin in the kitchen at all. They all just seem to get in the way/mess with the aesthetics of the kitchen some what.

I periodically shuffle things about in the kitchen in an attempt to optimise the layout and have tried putting the bins in the utility room a couple of times. The problem is it just then becomes a bit annoying having to go through there everytime I want to chuck something away especially as the kitchen bins are used multiple times per day. It also encroaches on the space for clothes airers. So I end up moving them back and yes they do damage the aesthetic a bit.

There's nothing redeeming about my bin. It's a rubbish bin.

Why did I laugh at this.

There's no place to fit in there to be honest.

Ha, everyone's giving me grief for wanting to spend 80.

It's all in jest but if it is on display in the kitchen then it has got to look good.

We have one that is screwed to the inside of the door that goes under the sink;

Hidden from view and easy to empty!

We have this and its great although i got it for £60. Just little things like the ledge the internal bin sits on to get the bag in and out is really helpful. There is a 37L for £73 amazon wharehouse. Had brabantia but think there crap for the money.

I begrudged having to spend that much on a bin too, but having done so I don't regret it at all. I've always had cheap bins in the past but they looked rubbish or broke!

I have an undersink bin - if you have the cupboard space, I recommend it as it's out of sight and has multiple compartments

we have a small compartment for storing the bags, then large for recycle and small for waste. Works well.

Im trying to find a solution for our kitchen, since we fitted a dishwasher the door opens where we've always had the bin.
Only space weve got is infront of the cupboard to the left of the oven against the wall, but we need to move the bin to get into the cupboard

Why did I laugh at this.

How could I "refuse" to make the joke?

100+ queenheads for a bin! Yowsers!
Like another poster I have two of these for normal and recycling (grey and red): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Curver-177...&qid=1505241157&sr=8-1&keywords=curver+177729
Both are still working after 18 months, although to be fair the flip lid mechanism is starting to give up. However 40 sheets for two bins doesn't seem such a bad deal every few years or so and they look simple and sleek.
