I think these are beautiful. I like the simple slabs of solid (solid-looking anyway) wood and don't think they hotel or dorm at all. They do look better without the knobs...

When my Mother needed to empty our house to move to a smaller place, we used CL to give away a lot of furniture -- it was good quality, good condition stuff and she had initially wanted to donate it but the various charitable destinations (Furniture Bank etc.) were too slow or complicated. The items were free and everything was wanted by someone.
Our best results were when we asked for a name and phone number, and first dibs went to the people who used full names.

A couple of years ago I got one at Container Store, German brand Leifheit, plain low plastic rectangle with internal holders for two garbage bags (grocery store bags work fine). It was the only two-in-one kitchen garbage can I could find and it works well. If you can still get one, I recommend it.
