A lid that closes itself, and a ring that hides the bag
A small desktop bin with a 360-degree gravity swing lid, a stainless steel base under a PP body, and a removable inner ring that holds the liner out of sight.
EKO swing-lid desktop bin with a hidden bag ring
Best for: A desktop where the bin sits in the open and should not look like one.
Two liters is not a capacity, it is a gesture — and on a desk that is the right scale. This bin is 5.3 in across and 7.3 in tall, with a swing lid on a 360-degree gravity mechanism that opens under a finger and falls shut behind it, a PP body on a stainless steel base, and a removable ring inside that grips the liner and hides its edges.
That ring is the part worth paying for. A small bin with a bag folded over the rim looks like a bag; the same bin with the liner clamped out of sight looks like an object. EKO is explicit about the intent — “No exposed bag edges, no visual clutter” — and it is the only bin in this hub with a ring for it; the AIWE7D hides its bag between an inner and an outer wall instead.
The qualification is the obvious one: 2.2 liters against 7 gallons at the other end of this shelf. This replaces the handful of things you would otherwise carry across the room, not the bin under the desk. EKO gives no liner size, so the bags are found by measuring, and no weight for the bin itself. A 1.5 L version of the same Fandy is sold too, with the same bullets apart from the figures.

It is the detail that separates a desktop bin from a small bucket. EKO states a "removable inner liner ring, this bag hiding trash can securely holds the trash bag in place while keeping it neatly concealed... No exposed bag edges". A liner folded over the rim of an open bin is the thing that makes it look like a bin; a ring that clamps it inside the body is why this one can sit on a desk in view.
EKO also sells it as a desktop container for cotton pads, toiletries, coffee pods and small items. With the swing lid and a 5.3 in opening, it is sized for small dry things rather than for a day's office paper.
Yes. EKO lists the Fandy in 1.5 L (0.4 gallon) as well, reference EK9206, with bullets identical to this one apart from the figures. This 2.2 L listing is the one that also describes the hidden bag ring.
Two square steel mesh bins, 5 gallons each in a 9.75 in square, 12.25 in tall body — a footprint that fits flush into a corner, at about $10 a bin.
Best for: Two bins for paper and recycling, in a square footprint that sits flush to a wall.
A 3.25-gallon deskside bin in one-piece plastic with rolled rims, stated to fit under a standard-height desk — the lowest single price in this hub.
Best for: The space between a pedestal and a desk leg, where the bin has to slide under a standard-height desk.
Two tapered round mesh bins of 6 gallons each, with the base diameter and the liner size published — on a listing whose description says the set contains three.
Best for: A room where the bin is visible, a standard liner matters, and the footprint at floor level counts more than at the rim.
A tiered copyholder with five slots rather than a single clip, keeping several reference documents upright and in priority order — the second-cheapest holder in this hub.
Best for: Reference work with several live documents at once, rather than reading one page at a time.
A folding seven-position holder with a heavy-duty acrylic plate on a metal base, a clip at the top and a bookmark clip on the side — the most expensive of the three seven-angle stands here.
Best for: Sheet music and cookbooks, where a bookmark clip on the side keeps your place without covering a line.
A weighted single-clamp holder, 4.3 by 2.1 in, that stands one document upright beside the keyboard, publishes what it will take — up to 20 sheets — and is the cheapest holder here.
Best for: A desk with no room for a stand, where one page at a time needs to stand up next to the keyboard.
