A kitchen trash can with a cleaning function, BIN makes cleaning easier, faster and fun. A lightweight vacuum is stored, charged and cleaned in an 18-liter trash can. The vacuum’s motor-powered brush sweeps debris off the kitchen floor; its hinged, spring-loaded handle extends and pivots 360 degrees for comfortable vacuuming under tables or around corners. The handle telescopes down to dock and lock into position on the BIN’s front surface, and the cord wraps on the back.
