Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I genuinely don't understand all the positive reviews. The design is terrible: narrow at bottom so that the lid/top of can hits the wall but the bottom does not. Now, when you step on the thing, it pushes the base against the wall, marks the wall with the lid, and causes the lid to interfere with the wall. Worked fine once I taped a box to the back of the can at the base. Second problem: the nice, metal lid-opening device is attached to the pedal with cheap plastic extension-thingies. The first one broke within a few months. The second several months after that. The lid went from opening, to mostly opening, to now I open it with my hand.
