The simplehuman trash bags work very well but are pricey. What other trash bags have you used that you recommend?

We just use Glad 13-gallon "Guaranteed Strong" bags (the popular one from Glad that comes 45 in a box) and they work perfectly!

We use the Kirkland brand (Costco) 13 Gal bags and they fit just as perfect as the PH ones.

I've tried others but they are all too short. I spend the extra money for a bag that fits.

I have used Great Value (Walmart brand) tall kitchen bags also and had no problem. I just prefer the Simplehuman. They really are stronger and I have not had any leakage or tearing at all with them no matter how full I stuff the can.

I can't compare them to Ucan, never heard of those, but I can say I had no problem with these. Although now I have found great bags at Costco, which is a much better deal! Just hope Costco continues to sell them. They are called BioBag food waste collection bags. 125 3gal bags for $12.99. Hope this helps.

I currently use a simplehuman 30L step can and it works great - it has a piece that holds the bag in place even when you open the trashcan to insert a diaper! any round kitchen trash can would probably work well.

We just use regular trash bags. It works just fine. The drawstring bags are the best. Easy to dispose of. Just make sure to get the sturdy ones, not the cheap ones that rip easily or you'll have a nasty mess to deal with. &lt;3

I use regular trash bags with mine. The simple human might go on easier but if you have ones that stretch at the top a bit it's fine.

I hate how quickly the refill rings run out and how hideously expensive they are. I started using white kitchen garbage bags and anchoring the corners to the outside of the locker using green painter's tape (no residue). The kitchen bags are stronger and bigger than regular grocery bags and a package of 100 is less than the cost of just TWO of the refill rings. I have a multi-cat household and am back to changing the bag once a week, rather than every other day.

We use a 13-gallon trash bag on both sides. We prefer not to spend the extra money on the SimpleHuman bags, so 13-gallong bags works just fine by twisting the tops and tucking them under.

Yes you can use regular trash bags. Though the tall kitchen garbage bags will be slightly small; we are able to make them fit (we just stretch them a bit to fit over the rim. Though since they are not actually sized for the trashcan, the bag will fill up before the trashcan does. Does that make sense? Whereas the Simple Human bag are made for the trashcan, so you can fit a lot more in the bag before having to change bags. I bought a huge box of normal tall kitchen garbage bags before buying this trashcan; so we are using those up before I even consider buying different bags. Hope this helps. I have to say though... I LOVE THIS TRASHCAN! Works easily, sturdy construction, and stains wipe off with ease.

The best would be to find smaller than average sized bags. Although the waste bin is smaller than what most are used to I enjoy not having a garbage can in plain sight. We use traditional sized bags and fill the remainder of the bag with garbage from bathrooms when it's time to take out so it works out. Even though sometimes we don't use ALL of the space in our bag every time, it's a price I'm willing to pay, especially when we buy them in bulk from Home Depot

I've got a Progressive and it works great! I like it better than the HEPA name brand bags that I was using.

We use the standard 13 gallon bags from Sam's Club. They are a little tight around the top, but they work and you don't have go around finding special sized bags.

Regular 13 gallon trash bags with drawstrings work great. Every brand I've tried has fitted the can well; some of them just need to be stretched a little to fit over the liner opening. The simple human bags fit the liner perfectly but are not needed; after trying them, I actually preferred my regular 13 gallon bags.

I use 4 gallon trash bags purchased from Target. Work great and I only have to replace the plastic receptacle every month or so.

We use heavy duty black trash bags but the white kitchen bags should be okay also.

Simple human bags are excellent quality and fit. Other bags work no problem, not messy just not quite as good.

We used any kind of trash bags. Big black ones that you can buy at any dollar stores or Glad garbage bags. Hope this helps you.

I use a ten gallon trash bag any brand so I can tuck the extra plastic around. I think it works perfectly. I have not used an 8 gallon bag yet.
