Looking for recommendations for a new kitchen bin

Our kitchen layout is such that our bin is on display, there's no option to conceal one in a cupboard etc. I've been thinking our bin has seen better days and realised that we've had it for 20 years!! In my defence I can't remember exactly how much it cost at the time but I know it was a lot (for a bin) it's a Simplehuman one and I like it but maybe bin technology has improved in the last two decades 😆

Ideally I'd like something that is rectangular so that it can fit neatly where it needs to go. And I'd like a white or stainless steel one. Otherwise open to hearing about all sorts of fancy functions and features!

It's probably the boring answer but I really like our brabantia bin. I find the touch lid quite satisfying and the 60l holds a good amount before it needs taking out. This is the style we have- I always worry with rectangular bins you can't really fill the bag properly before taking it out.
