Totem Max Recycling Bin, Joseph Joseph - Review 

No problem. It's still running really well and no problems with the lid or anything. It gets lots of usage too as it's our main bin 🙂.

Thanks for saying so. It really is a great bin which I may do an update video on if I find time.

No problem at all, thanks for your comment

That's unlucky. Mine is still going well. If you get a replacement I hope it works out for you.

I must admit that I hadn't heard of problems with the lid but my one is still running really well and no problems with the lid or anything. It gets lots of usage too 🙂.

Thanks alot for the feedback 👍😁

Thanks for your comment and I'm glad it helped. It really is a good bin if you decide to purchase.

It should be under warranty. Have you contacted the seller yet. Try that first.

Thanks for the feedback. Yes you can definately use different bags. Even a black bin bag can be used to line the 2 orange containers. It is made of metal so is heavyish as bins go I guess. How talented and determined your dog is will be the question 😁

Jaffabite Thank you so much for the info. Haha yes, I suppose time will tell if he gets into it 🤣 I ordered the Compact 40L version so we shall see. Thanks again!

Hi, the main bin is static and the bottom compartment is on wheels to allow it to be pulled forward and pushed back. I hope that helps.

Hey, no I didn't do anything at all it just came like that. It's also new in the video so it's not like it was after any wear or anything. Maybe try contacting Totem directly? By the way my bin is still going really well so they do last. 🙂

@@Jaffabite I've read a lot of reviews and they say that these usually shit out after the year mark

By the side of the hand, arm or elbow, it really doesn't need much pressure at all to open.

Exactly then you have to use dirty hands to close the lid every time that would get we messy

@@songxingmu You could close it after cleaning your hands. If they put a pedal on it you wouldn't be able to pull out the bottom bin.

@@songxingmu why would your hands be dirty?

​@@leefreemanukMaybe you're making dinner and need to throw out the meat package you just took chicken out of with your hands or you're repotting a plant and are throwing out roots that you pruned so you've got soil on your hands? If I'm throwing out trash it's often because I'm handling...trash😂

Thanks for the question. I've not noticed any smells from it. Any smells would only be from the food waste part of it and that has a lid which fits well and but also that bin sits inside the top bin so seems to work alright. It's also not huge so it gets taken out to the outside bin fairly frequently. With reference to the price, yes I understand that it is alot to justify on a bin, maybe keep an eye on the price as it does go up and down, also try shopping around different stores/sites. Also look to see how much similar bins cost from other suppliers.
