tools for efficient living®
We design housewares to make you more efficient at home — from a spoon rest on a utensil holder to a pedal that'll outlast 50,000 steps, or a paper towel holder that won't unravel and a dishrack that drains in different directions. We know we've done our job when you wonder how it's possible to love a trash can that much. See below for examples of our design innovations.
modular design
Our dishracks feature a modular design to allow you to place cup holders and other accessories in different spots along the railing to best suit your needs. Do your wet cups need a place to drip dry? Need extra space to fit more dishes? No problem — simply add or remove accessories as needed.
unique features
We asked ourselves how we could improve on the traditional utensil holder. How about with different storage heights, so you can hold both small and large utensils, and a removable spoon rest that's also dishwasher safe?
durable construction
Your trash can has to outlast a multitude of household chores - that's why each trash can pedal is tested to endure over 50,000 steps. Plus, we back every trash can with a 5 or 10 year limited warranty.
easy to use
Our pod brewer makes it easy to enjoy gourmet coffee at home – with a press of a button, it brews a cup in less than a minute without measuring, mess, or waste. It's coffee the simplehuman way - just plain simple.
quiet close lid
We like our trash can lids to close quietly, without the jarring “clang”. Many of our cans come with motion dampers so that the lid won't slam shut – instead, it closes with a gentle whisper.
innovative materials
Our dishracks are made of rustproof 18/10 stainless steel and clear ABS plastic for superior durability. We use ABS plastic because it's dishwasher safe, won't crack or discolor, and is safe for holding dishes in place without chipping.
chores made easy
We make taking out the trash less of a chore with our patented smartbucket bag change system.- Integrated handles make it easy to remove the bucket.
- Use the bucket park™ position to replace the bag.
- Tuck excess bag into the bag tuck™ opening to avoid messy bag overhang.
