Discuss Found a nice trash pullout for 12" base on IKEAFANS.com. We're Personalizing the IKEA Experience. Found a nice trash pullout for 12" base - Need help with planning your remodel? Want a kitchen planner to review your ideas? This is the happenin' spot!.
I bought the single pullout can after I discovered that the BPO12 I had originally planned for trash would not clear the door hardware on the adjacent corner cabinet.
So I switched to a 12" base with a single door. The simplehuman pull-out apparatus clears the hinges no problem. There is even enough room to mount an interior drawer above the trash bins for extra garbage bags.
That is an excellent find! I especially like the recycler. Is it possible to purchase just the cans and not the pullout apparatus? The 12" pullout already has those parts.
So I was going to order the single black bin--the Simple Human site indicates that the double bin is backordered--but had to run down to Ikea before I had a chance to place the order. My fiance kept saying, c'mon, Ikea must make a container for the 12" trash pullout, but I assured him that they don't. So imagine my surprise when an Ikean showed us a new 8-gallon waste bin. It's about 16" high and 16" deep and 10" wide, and although it fits pretty snugly in the 12" pullout I think it will work fine. (Kitchen isn't quite finished so we aren't using it routinely--and in fact most trash has been dropped in from above, though that's not possible now that the countertop has been installed )
Hi Becky, Thanks for delurking to share that info. Looks like a great solution. Congratulations on the new countertops! Would you like to share a picture?

absolutely! This site has been so helpful to me as we've worked out the plan for our kitchen, and if what we've done can be helpful to others I'll be delighted.
here is just one picture--more to come after more is done! (door pulls, pendant lights, backsplash tile, etc.)
Thanks so much for posting that

. Your new kitchen looks wonderful and calming. I see you too resorted to a corner sink.
You can also post that pic to your gallery so they're easier for you to locate when you want to refer to something.....and yet at the same time, others get to enjoy pics of your kitchen as well.
