40 Gal. Oak Wood Commercial Tray Top Waste Enclosure Trash Can Receptacle

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this product for a week now and I might say it looks nice. It is durable and makes a lot of room for garbage. Maintenance is easy but the assembly has been a pain. But overall it works great!

I am renovating a youth room at a local church and thought this would be perfect. They just had an open trash can so this would be more sanitary and look nicer I thought. And it does look nicer. But what I worry about is how long it will last because it seems pretty cheap to me. I'll explain. Normally you have the post screw that you screw in and then the other piece of the furniture has a round embedded locking nut that you turn half way. In this case the post screw would onlu go in a short way and then because the wood wasnt great quality (in my opinion and experience) the post screw would strip. There wa sno ledge that it would go into. I'll show you in a picture. Basically, because the post screws are barely in I dont expect them to hold together well. Especially in a space with young people. I also found adjusting the door to be difficult. It wants to scrape on the sides and bottom. Ive done a lot of doors on furniture and this one was not my favorite. All said, it's built and it works. I dont recommend it and wouldnt order again. But it functions and looks nicer. So 3 stars.

The Alpine Industries 40 gallon wooden waste receptacle is a quality waste receptacle with one drawback, the assembly instructions are not very good. In fact, had the assembly instructions been more detailed and clearly written, this item would have received a five-star rating instead of a four-star rating. The lack of detailed assembly information easily added 30 minutes to the assembly time and resulted in the bottom panel (Panel E) being installed upside down, which I didn’t fix. Additionally, while the panels are labeled alphabetically in the instructions, none of the panels are marked as such. More information regarding the hinge installation and adjustment would have been helpful too. Moving past the assembly instructions, the pieces came well packaged and are well constructed and fit together nicely. Once assembled, the Alpine Waste Receptacle looks very nice and is sturdy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 40 Gal. Black Wood Commercial Tray Top Waste Enclosure Trash Receptacle is great for any restaurant, store or even home. It was easy to put together and the instructions are clear and precise. The materials are well made and should last a good while. This receptacle makes sure the garbage ends up in the can where is belongs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super heavy duty garbage can. It was easy to put together not only is it very attractive and a great addition to our garage. Although we do not have trays we use the top shelf for returnable cans and bottles so that they don't get put in the garbage can oh, what a great way to separate your garbage.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this trash can but it's a little to big for home use definitely dont wanna get unless you have a big space for it cause takes up some room. Would be great if opening a restaurant for sure but dont get for home use takes up to much room. Other than that I love this trash can easy to use and keeps a mess of trash inside not all over.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As enthusiastic cooks, we spend a lot of time in our kitchen and decided we needed a more useful and more attractive solution for our trash can, one that would also keep our 3 dogs from “investigating” our throwaways. This waste receptacle in Medium Oak blends well with our kitchen style and provides the perfect solution. For assembly, we laid a large blanket down to protect our wood living room floor and separated the hardware pieces in a desk tray. The instructions are clear and well written while the holes for wood pegs, screws and cam locks on each section lined up precisely. The only suggestion I would make to help amateur assemblers like us is to add peel-off stickers to the inside of each of the 7 sections to match the instructions, i.e. “Left Side - Up” with an arrow pointing upward to show the orientation of that section. Assembly took about 2-1/2 hours, including a break to study the instructions and figure out what we were doing wrong. It turns out we had the top piece sideways and just needed to turn it 45 degrees. After correcting that error, the 7 pieces went together quickly. The receptacle is heavy and solid with smooth edges and a finish that wipes down easily. The interior is large enough to hold a wide variety of sizes and shapes of trash containers. The lower door opens and closes at a touch with a magnetic connector for ease of pulling out and replacing the trash container, and the upper door swings effortlessly to deposit waste Since we’re using it in our home, we turned the top tray section into a space to keep boxes of trash bags, freezer and storage bags, aluminum foil and plastic wrap. Because it is a closed environment, I noticed smells were accumulating. The solution was to place a small air deodorizer on the floor of the receptacle. The more we use this in our home kitchen, the more we enjoy and appreciate that it is both good looking and practical.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very well constructed garbage can. The wood is heavy and you can tell this will last a long time. The wood finish is beautiful and would look great in any business setting or even in a home setting. This holds 40 gallons of trash and is very roomy. I like being able to push the Thank you sign to toss the garbage. I was a little intimidated to put it together but a friend of mine had no trouble at all and in less than an hour. The top tray makes it convenient to store extra stuff on. My only wish is that it came with the receptacle.
