Amazon.com Product Description: Once you've tried the iTouchless Touchless Trashcan, you will never go back to the traditional or step-on trash can again. After all, your trashcan is your most-used everyday "appliance," so why not make it easier, more pleasant, and a lot less messy to use?
iTouchless trashcan opens and closes without touching the bin. View larger.
About the Touchless Trashcan The 13-gallon, brushed stainless steel Touchless Trashcan is a patented product that's already widely recognized in Europe. Thousands have been sold on infomercials, QVC, and HSN home shopping channels. It also won the 2002 Invention Show, New Household Product Award. It is a 100 percent hands-free operated, wireless, lidded waste disposal system. The built-in Artificial Intelligent (AI) Smart-Chip knows when you need to open trash can, and it does all the openings and closings for you so you don't have to touch or step on anything.
How it Works The Touchless Trashcan uses patented, invisible, and harmless infrared technology. Simply place your hand or debris about six inches away from the infrared sensor near the lid. It will open instantly when you approach and will close automatically in three seconds after debris has been released and your hand moves away. The lid will remain open if debris or your hand is within the 6-inch range of the infrared sensor. There are two buttons on the front to open and close the lid manually, and a easy to reach on/off switch on the back of the trashcan.
The Benefits of the Touchless Trashcan This trashcan creates a germ free, odor free, automated environment. It keeps your hands clean while you are cooking or playing with your children. It also helps prevent contamination, which reduces the threat of certain illnesses and infections. Because the trashcan turns an ordinary chore into something fun, your kids will have fun throwing the trash away for you. In addition, the Touchless Trashcan outlasts most of the step-on and hand-touch cans. If you can't touch it, you can't break it! These cans have been opened 100,000 times in laboratory tests, and they're still going strong. In fact, if you open your can 20 times a day, it can last over 10 years. This could actually be the last trashcan you ever buy, which will save you money, mess, and time.
Technology and Eco-Friendly Features Professionals recognize Touchless Trashcan as the next generation of waste receptacles. Its non-touch hygienic features meet the immediate needs in healthcare facilities and elderly homes. The new SilenX technology makes the closing of the lid even quieter while the "eagle eye" water-resistant sensor features reliable point-n-lock beam technology. In addition, the special energy saving design of Touchless Trashcan enables its four "D" size heavy duty batteries to support up to 10,000 consecutive openings and closings, or more than one year of use in non-frequent circumstances. There's also never a "fallen bag" problem with the Touchless Trashcan. The specially designed garbage bag retainer ring tightly holds the edges of the bag to prevent it from falling, and it seals the odors inside. You can use regular plastic garbage bags or even grocery bags, so there's no need to buy special garbage bags which many high-end garbage cans require.
The Touchless Trashcan will improve the look of your kitchen, giving it an ultra-modern look and feel. It comes with one year limited manufacturer's warranty and a 60-day unconditional money back guarantee.

Rating: - Touchless Trash Can, 13 Gal.
We broke out first one (our fault) and were so pleased with it we bought another. The best kitchen trash can we've ever owned.
Rating: - A very good trashcan
I've been using this item for over a year now and it still works well.
I did have to turn off the auto lid because it would open spontaneously whenever I, or the dogs, walked past...I realize that it's supposed to do this but it was too often and then the garbage odors would permeate my kitchen. I simply turned off the auto lid and now we open it by hand.
It's still the best garbage can for my kitchen; it looks good, it's easy to keep clean, it's the right size and it keeps odors from the room.
Rating: - Piece of Junk
I have purchased 5 of these in the past 2 years. Bought 2 for my kids. Nice gimmick to have the lid open when you have your hands full. The problem is the little black gear at the rear of the lid strips out very easily or the lid at the rear self destructs. Made out of cheap plastic!!
You better keep your receipt because the company will not stand behind this crummy lid without it! Who saves a receipt to a garbage can?
Rating: - I love it!!!
This somewhat extravagant item is awesome! It looks marvelous and works perfectly. The action of the lid is virtually silent and works as advertised. It is definitely NOT too sensitive as it doesn't open by accident as we pass close by very often. By reading the reviews prior to buying I was able, from day one, to figure out which way the inner ring fit (wider end in the back). The outside is a bit tough to keep looking spotless, but because its brushed a slight mark doesn't show much.
The only critism I have is that it dents easily so treat it very gently. Once again, because ... Read More
Rating: - Shipping fees for warranty claims
I absolutely love my touchless 13 gal. trash can which I bought in June of 2007 but using the warranty cost me $20.00 more on top of the initial purchase price. In May 2008, my lid would no longer close so I contacted the manufacturer by email to initiate the warranty process. I mailed the defective lid and paperwork(keep your receipt!)along with a $9.95 check for return shipping. I had to pay for the postage to ship the defective lid. I received a replacement lid within the company's published return time. However, I may just forget the lid if it goes out again since there is only a 1 year warranty ... Read More
