Next is the ultimate bin for a country kitchen
Kitchen bins are one of the features we look past in a cooking space. Often hidden in the corner of a cooking space or within a drawer, these practicality-first features don’t get the attention they deserve.
Bins are also often uninspiring – in stainless steel or black, which doesn’t always go with your scheme. So when I saw this floral kitchen bin from Next, I knew it was a unique design to shout about.
Whether you have a country kitchen or you want to add floral flair to a pared-back space, this adorable pedal bin will be the ultimate addition to your kitchen.

This 30L kitchen bin has it all – a substantial size for a family home, a handy pedal opening and a beautiful floral design that turns a functional item into a design moment.
While bins are often overlooked, the right bin can completely alter how your everyday routine feels. Thinking about whether or not you need a pedal bin, a dual-zone style with room for recycling or a larger size will turn an annoying chore into something that blends into the background of your life.
There are practical things to consider when choosing a bin, but style is also important. A kitchen bin will sit out on show, so opting for a colour and design that goes with your cabinetry will pull the space together.

The floral design of this Next bin is truly unique, making it perfect for adding to a pastel kitchen colour scheme or a cottage environment.
Bin preferences are specific to each person, but I think we can all agree what makes a design stand out.
‘I knew I had reached adulthood when I became extremely invested in my kitchen bin. It would be difficult to get me to stray from my trusty Joseph Joseph Totem Bin (£199) which is my kitchen hero thanks to its handy compartment system but if I had the country kitchen of my dreams I could definitely see a space for Next’s floral version,’ explains Ideal Home’s Kitchen Appliances Editor, Molly Cleary.
‘A pedal bin is a very hygienic option and the added decoration means you can add some interest to your usual kitchen colour scheme.’
