    Genius !

    "Love this bin. Doesn’t take up much room considering its large capacity and its genius the way the bottom element slides effortlessly out. Looks very attractive also."

    Francine G. (5/5)

    Wow I had my eye

    "Wow I had my eye on this bin for a while. Live in a flat. Fits perfectly in the space I wanted it in. The recycling bin is amazing n so is the compost bin. My other bin use to smell so I did wanna change it It’s expensive but honestly worth it especially if u do a lot recycling n compost. Bin bags are strong, bit expensive. Quick delivery by DPD. Overall a fab bin"

    Totem Waste

    "Love it, with increase in items that can now be recycled I needed a bigger bin and this fits the bill perfectly. Glass bin underneath glides in and out."

    Totem bin

    "Absolutely perfect bin combination and fits perfectly into my small utility room. Having 3 bins in one is brilliant and works very well indeed."

    Lid broken, no spare parts

    "I used to love my bins. However, some spring gave in and the lid does not spring open and stays there. I reached out to Joseph Joseph about buying a spare part and there are none. No additional effort to reach out to their manufacturer or any solution to be added. This is so disappointing as it de-valuates the experience and the product."

    Frank (2/5)

    Great product, love this bin!

    "Great product. I highly recommend getting this bin. I live alone and its a great size for me. However I think it would be big enough for a house of 2. Its compact, removable parts are great. Great design and easy to clean :)"

    Rebekah F. (5/5)

    Bought Tow!

    "Very impressed with these bins. We have two side by side so we enough space for paper/card, glass, metal/plastic and non recyclable waste."

    Rachel R. (5/5)

    Good design, but recurring lid mechanism failure

    "I really like the overall design of the Totem Max — it’s practical, space-efficient, and the waste separation system works very well in daily use. However, the lid mechanism has been disappointing. This is actually the second unit I’ve owned: the first developed a fault after a few years, and I had seen similar reports of lid issues at the time. I assumed the design would have been improved since then, but unfortunately this second unit failed much sooner — after around 6 months of normal use. The issue appears to be the internal plastic latch, which feels too fragile for a high-use part. I’ve included a video showing the lid not opening when pressed, with a clicking sound from the mechanism, as well as a photo of the broken latch. Customer service was straightforward and the return/refund process was handled well. Overall, it’s a great concept and design, but the durability of the lid mechanism needs improvement for long-term premium bin use."

    Another well designed bin!

    "Really well thought out. We are a household of two and the 40L works effectively for us. It’s helped with workflow in the kitchen as recycling is such a fundamental part of the day to day. This is our second bin from Joseph. It matches our existing joseph designed general waste bin (we loved the side opening which eliminated the “suction” effect when replacing the bin liners). It’s the little things that are well thought out that make the difference to your everyday experience."
