There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The only bad thing that I had is that the sensor did not swivel for me. However, their CS was terrific when I alerted them to the problem. Due to the CS, I do not think the issue warrants the deduction of a star.
I have tried three others, and they are okay, but they don't compare to this can.
1. The A/C adapter (though not included) is fantastic. The others I had didn't have the option.
2. The switch is easily accessible if you need to turn it off.
3. The lid is much nicer than those that open like a clamshell. No matter the brand, a clamshell top will get disgusting, and it reduces the overall opening. This lid opens fully and does not obstruct the opening.
4. Due to 3, the can/lid will stay cleaner. My kids have a much easier time using it without messes. The short stature helps too.
5. The countdown on the lid closing is AMAZING. I haven't seen that with my others, and it is a huge advantage. Not only does it tell you when it is closing but, more importantly, it gives you immediate feedback if the sensor detected your hand for a second time to keep it from closing. With my others, you had to hope that it saw your hand.
6. The buttons for the manual open and close are hands-down the best I've seen. They are large and flush with the top rather than small and "bubbled."
7. Because this is rectangular, you can use the whole bag. What I mean is that the others (round or semi-round) do not make efficient use of the bag. When you remove the bag, the contents settle, and that means that you have an only half-used bag. With this being a rectangle, it keeps the bag open, so you get full use before you remove it.
8. Speaking of removal, it is much easier to remove this bag than the others.
You can use the ring or not. If you don't, it holds the bag tighter (much tighter), but you do see it sticking out of the can. I just used the ring for the first time so it will be interesting to see if we have issues. I do not expect issues because the size of the can allows the bag to rest on the bottom.

We have a large dog that would rummage in the trash when nobody was home, so we got this and plugged it into a SmartHome outlet that automatically turns the bin off when we leave home and on when someone arrives back. No more coming home to trash everywhere!
I really like this trash can but we’ve had issues with the lid time and time again. First the trash bag holder broke and they replaced that then the lid broke the first time. They replaced it but they told me it is under a year warranty but now they refuse to get back with me. The lid broke again. Then I go to look at why the lid wouldn’t close and the door came off the hinges. It is flimsy. Would love for the seller to get back with me and help me like they did.
Another great benefit is that the can does not need battery to function, which save me a lot of trouble to replace battery.
After 3 years of usage, the door actually did not open well. But the customer service fixed it for me free of charge. I could not approve the their dedication of quality more.
However, this thing is delicate with lots of little plastic gears. If you interfere with the lid while the motor is moving it, you're going to break the mechanism. You must never, even touch the lid. Just let it do its thing and keep your hands off it. It will last many years if you can avoid touching it.
