The fingerprint-resistant stainless steel finish stays looking polished even with daily use, and the removable inner bucket makes bag changes and cleaning simple.

Specifications

Buying guide

When choosing a step bin for a Kenyan kitchen or utility room, capacity and hygiene features matter more than looks alone. This 50 litre model suits a busy household or a small office pantry that fills a bin quickly, while its slim footprint means it slots neatly beside a sink or counter without blocking foot traffic. The foot-pedal, hands-free lid is worth prioritising if you cook with messy or wet hands often, and the soft-close mechanism is a genuine upgrade if your kitchen sits close to a living or dining area, since it removes the loud bang of a standard swing lid. Because the inner bucket lifts out for cleaning and bag changes, it is easier to keep odour-free than bins with a fixed liner, which matters in Nairobi's warmer months. Pay conveniently by M-Pesa or cash on delivery when your order arrives.

How it compares

Compared to the 20 Litre Stainless Steel Octos Step Bin, this 50 litre step bin holds well over double the waste before needing emptying, making it a better fit for family kitchens rather than compact apartments or single desks. Set next to the 45 Litre Stainless Steel Step Bin, the extra 5 litres of capacity is useful for larger households, but the standout difference is the soft-close lid, which the 45L version does not offer — if quiet, gentle closing matters to you, this 50L model is the one to pick. All three share the same fingerprint-resistant stainless steel finish and foot-pedal opening, so the decision mainly comes down to how much waste your household generates and whether a silent lid is a priority.

Frequently asked questions

Is the inner bucket removable for washing?
Yes, the inner bucket lifts straight out of the outer stainless steel shell, so you can rinse it, change the bin liner, or wipe it dry without handling the whole unit.

Will the soft-close lid work if the pedal is pressed quickly?
Yes, the soft-close mechanism controls the lid on both opening and closing regardless of pedal speed, so it lowers gently and quietly every time instead of dropping shut.

Does the stainless steel finish show fingerprints and smudges?
No, the surface has a fingerprint-resistant coating that is designed to stay looking clean and polished with normal daily use, unlike plain glossy stainless steel.

Do you deliver outside Nairobi?
Yes — same-day delivery within Nairobi and countrywide shipping to Mombasa, Kisumu, Nakuru, Eldoret and beyond, with payment by M-Pesa or on delivery.
