Rating: - BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD!
I MUST ADMIT I WAS SKEPTICAL ABOUT A "HANDS FREE " TRASH CAN AND EVEN CONSIDERED IT A NOVELTY BEFORE I OWNED IT, BUT AFTER USING IT FOR OVER A YEAR THIS IS ONE OUR THE BEST PRODUCTS THAT I HAVE PURCHASED THRU AMAZON. THIS IS THE REAL DEAL ....THIS TRASH CAN IS NOT A NOVELTY PRODUCT THAT YOU USE A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND THROW AWAY.
I FIRST PURCHASED THIS {OVER A YR AGO} I HAVE SINCE BOUGHT 4 MORE FOR BATH ROOMS,BASEMENT KITCHEN, ETC.
I AM VERY PLEASED AND SUGGEST ANYONE LOOKING AT THIS TRASH CAN SHOULD BUY IT.
BTW...BATTERIES LAST OVER A YR W/ CONSTANT USAGE, LOOKS GREAT, WORKS WELL W/ ALL 13 GALLON TRASH BAGS.
Rating: - A very cool trash can
I've had this trash can a little more than a month. So far, it's worked perfectly. I read with some concern the issues regarding the material and finish. All I can say is that mine is perfect. It's sturdy, it looks cool. It's easy to load the bags. It takes a little practice to hit the right spot to get the lid to open, but I'd rather have a narrow field to trigger the open than have it opening and closing every time you walk by it.
I did have one problem that concerned me. The lid stopped opening automatically. I had read other reviews claiming that this happened after a couple of weeks of use. I "rebooted" the lid by removing the batteries and then putting them back in. That solved the problem only to have it happen again several times. I noticed that it always seemed to happen after my wife used the trash can, so I asked her to show me how she was using it. She was pushing the "open" button (she was having trouble finding the sensor) and then pushing the lid down with her hand!!! By engaging the open button, she was turning off the sensor. Since she stopped doing that, we haven't had any problems.

Great product, only thing is if you walk to close to it the lid will open.
No problems with it.

This is our second trashcan like this. We love the hands-free convenience. Our grandkids & our great-grandkids are fascinated by it. We completely re-modeled our house, especially the kitchen--new appliances & everything, but this trash can is what everyone focuses on.--Wouldn't you know it?
Rating: - Good overall
This is a good can. It is our second one because the first one broke. Be careful with the lid. But we liked it enough to replace it and it's really nice when your hands are full.
