Reply to comment by CLow48 in Hailo bins: 40 years old (left) and 1 month old (right) by xKobito

Right....but what you're forgetting is this is a bin that's been confirmed. So it has more credit in my book then whatever supposed bin you can bring up without a post on this subreddit.

What could possible go wrong with a garbage bin? I've got one at my mom's house that we had for 30 years, and it was some cheapo from K Mart or something.

I think your also missing the point that he was also able to repair it with a new lid after 35 years because the company still makes it.

You are still taking a massive gamble that will still be the case in the future.

We’ve had several crack around the rim when lifting them, especially when emptying litter boxes. Still looking for a good thin metal one that would be lightweight but strong.

Probably because anyone who has ever lived in a house for 20 years has multiple bins laying around and still working fine. Even the cheapest plastic bin is buy it for life if you don't go out of your way to try to break it. So why would anyone ever want to post one?
