I have mine on an aftermarket (Rev-a-shelf) 2 bin pullout. I replace one of the supplied bins with a smaller one from Ikea, which left space to tuck the box of dishwasher detergent in front (plus I don't like a large bin of trash accumulating). Left the 2nd bin and use that for recycling.

I meant to convert the door from a swing open/pull out trash to one attached to the pullout (so one pullout motion to open) but I haven't gotten around to it.

I have a double bin pull out (one pullout motion to open). I like everything about it, except it would be better if it had a foot pedal to open it so you wouldn't have to touch the handle. We use one bin for mixed recycling, and one for trash. The one we have now has the bins suspended/supported by plywood with cutouts toward the top, we used to have one in a different house that had the support at the bottom. Both work fine.

Many option. The Triple XL is my favorite. I remember that you are in the UK.

I did a rollout bin under my sink for both trash and recycle. Since it rolls out, I did have to go with a shorter trashcan. Happy with results.

Thanks I was looking at that actual bin from that company yesterday, just before I posted my question here! Will have a good look at it now, and yes, I'm in the UK.

Great to hear direct experiences too I've only had pedal bins in the past so it's lovely to have your advice

sjhockey and all: This may be too small for your needs, but I found these swivel cans where the lid pops up and down as the door opens and closes. We have a small space beneath our sink cabinet, and thought we might tuck one of these down there (if it clears our sink bottom!). Empty nest, so it takes us forever to fill up the old 13-gallon. Anyone ever use these and care to comment on experiences?

We just use one of these from Ikea inside our sink cabinet. It doesn't hold much but that's fine with us as we prefer to empty every day or two anyway. It's not fancy but it works great.

We put in a double bin pullout (24" cabinet) with a Servo-drive so that we don't have to touch the door when we have goo on our hands. We both love it.

Any time you can do a single motion, that's better than a door plus pull-out. I hate disposals, so the garbage portion of my my dual garbage/recycling pull-out gets dumped often. I'd be leery of breaking the pop-up lids, but it's a nice concept. No handle sounds great too!

I've had a small pop-up lid bin under my prep sink for over three years. I use it for compost. Every once in a while the lid derails and has to be popped back in place, but that's no big deal, and it's worked really well for me.
