Lovewind Dual Trash and Recycling Bin, 2 x 13-Gallon, Stainless Steel

Sorting kitchen waste while cooking is easier when trash and recycling each have a dedicated place. This Lovewind dual-bin setup provides two 13-gallon compartments in one rectangular unit. Choose separate containers if you prefer to carry waste to different locations, choose a combined bin when you want both streams together by the kitchen counter.

Quick overview

The brushed stainless steel exterior gives the bin a clean, coordinated look, while two removable PP inner buckets make it easier to lift out and empty each side. The total capacity is 26 gallons, divided into two compartments for general waste and recyclables. Use the included magnetic labels to identify the sides at a glance, and fit standard 13-gallon trash bags.

Each compartment has its own foot pedal for hands-free opening, useful when your hands are full during meal prep. The stainless steel lids close softly, and the stay-open function holds a lid open for longer kitchen tasks. Its odor-seal feature helps keep waste contained between trips to the garbage or recycling area. The rectangular body measures 28.2 inches long, 15 inches wide, and 25.5 inches high with the lids closed, with a lid open, the height is 38.3 inches.

Cleaning & care

The brushed stainless steel exterior has a smudge-resistant finish and can be wiped with a damp cloth. Removable inner buckets with built-in handles make it simpler to empty and clean each compartment separately. Keeping the two sides distinct also gives household members a clear place for everyday trash and recyclable items, without adding separate standalone bins around the kitchen.

Who it’s for

This setup suits households that regularly separate recycling from general waste and want both containers within reach. It can sit against a cabinet or in a corner, and its two compartments offer a different approach from using one large bin and sorting later. The two sides are also useful when more than one person uses the kitchen: the magnetic labels help make the intended purpose of each side clear.

Buyer feedback often highlights the generous capacity, appearance, magnetic labels, and quiet lid action. Some comments differ on sturdiness and how securely bags stay in place, so experiences in those areas are not uniform.

Questions before you buy

What size bags fit this bin? Standard 13-gallon trash bags are designed to fit each compartment, so the two sides can be lined separately.

Can a lid stay open during a kitchen task? Yes. The stay-open feature holds a lid in position, which is useful while prepping food or handling several items. Each side also has its own foot pedal for hands-free opening.

How much clearance is needed to open a lid? The closed unit is 25.5 inches high, and the height with a lid open is 38.3 inches. Allow enough vertical room for the lid to open fully where you plan to place it.

When it makes sense

Choose this dual-compartment bin when a single kitchen station for trash and recycling matters more than keeping separate containers in different rooms. Its two removable buckets, independent pedals, soft-close lids, and standard-bag fit support everyday sorting and disposal, while the stainless steel finish provides a practical surface for a frequently used kitchen area.
