does this have a slow closing lid or does it just slam down

You control the closing with your foot. Nothing automatically stops it, but it doesn't slam down abruptly either. Specially if you have a little trash bag, this softens the closing.

Does this trashcan have a stay-open feature, so that the lid can stay open even when the pedal is not being pressed?

If you don't keep pressure on the foot pedal while the lid is closing, it will come back down fairly fast.

Brunmar, It is NOT slow-closing. While it does slam down if you don't lower it slowly with your foot, it's not a really big can, so it doesn't bang like a bigger can would. Hope this helps.

Slowly. But its acceptable. I do like this product a lot. Ive tried many shakers and so far this is best. Mainly because i can get the lid off.

There is a string that lifts and lowers the door. It does not push it closed, only the weight of the door brings it down. Also it opens and closes slowly.

It does snap down securely to prevent particles from getting onto the butter. As I mentioned it also prevents my cats from getting into it if I have left it on the counter. But if you are looking for something sealed air tight. That it is not. I always still pick it up from the bottom just in case. I have had the lid come off if just picked up from the lid.

I've never just used the slow close mechanism to lower the seat, so I don't know. You can just push the seat down and lid will stay open.

When you press the lid down to close it, it latches automatically. Then to open it, there is a button you press down that releases it.

I don't know what a quiet close lid is. The rail has a plate with two holes that the bolts that are used to hold the lid down go into. So you remove the lid, put the metal plate down, then put the lid on top of it, using the bolts you use for the lid, bolt them down, apply the rails. Hope this helps.

Yes it has a lid that stays attached on one side and clicks closed on the other.

Yes, it's quiet. No thunk. I don't have the big one so I don't know if it's comparable. It's not on a special hinge that does a slower drop though.

It does not. It opens to the very top and slams down very easily. I use it as a toy box and it has been known to slam down on little fingers. Good luck

Does not appear to be a problem. Lid closes slowly, hard to force quickly so has not happened to my son.

It is a soft close works for both seat and cover-so yes if the seat is in the down position and you want to close downward the cover it will slow close with no noise.

If you open the lid fully until you feel it click it will stay in that position. Kind of like how a car door has that open point where it won't swing shut.

depends on the weight of the lidwith normal weight lids - slight pressure will close lid slowlyif lid is too heave lip will come down hardif lid is heavy use two supportsI used two supports on a heavy lipworks great

It's not a slow close. It has a magnet at the top to hold up. The child seat is light so it wouldn't squish fingers but the top solid lid is heavy.

You don't have to push it down. When you line the steam dot with the one on the lid it lifts up Letting steam out. When you set it to pressure, it drops down to seal it. It feels a bit funny because it's so loose feeling.
