iTouchless 13 Gallon Kitchen Trash Can with Lid and Odor Filter, AC Adapter Included, Motion Sensor Stainless Steel Rectangular Garbage Bin for Home Office Work Bedroom Living Room Slim Wastebasket

I bought this to use as a diaper bin and it's been a true blessing. Even with it filled to capacity we only smell the nastiness for the brief moment the lid is open. Otherwise you'd never know the horrors that awaited inside lol! It's been running strong on the same batteries since I bought it. Bags are easy to replace and the removable bag ring is fantastic. With the top back on the bag is secure and completely concealed. I'm not sure how much the charcoal filter helps, but my main concern was odor when the can is closed, and for that purpose it works perfectly! As an added bonus the unit looks fantastic!Update: I've been using this daily for six months or so and it is a workhorse! Still running on the same batteries I purchased when I received it and blocking diaper odor just as effectively!Update: So, after working perfectly since last November, a couple weeks ago the lid decided to give up on me suddenly and completely! I figured the batteries had finally died, so I swapped in a fresh set and nothing happened. No light, no movement, nothing at all. I almost decided to just write it off, but figured I might as well try customer care. I sent them an email with a screen shot of my original order and description of the problem. To my pleasant surprise I got an email back within 24 hours with an incident number and instructions to call in for service. I called in thinking they were going to want me to send in the lid, but they surprised me by saying their policy had changed and I just had to pay a $9.95 service/shipping and handling fee and a new lid would be sent out. They didn't want the old one back at all. Since it would cost more than that to just ship the original lid in to them I had no issue paying the fee. About a week later I received my brand new lid! I really can'take say enough about the quality customer service I received from itouchless. It was all very simple and because of that I'm leaving my review at five stars!If you found this review to be helpful please indicate so.

I love this touchless trash can. It is my second purchase of this brand. The batteries lasted two years with daily kitchen use, which I consider great. The newer model includes a deodorizer, which is a nice touch if it actually works. It is slim and sleek and fits perfectly in the narrow space where it needs to go in my kitchen. At first I ordered the "used-like new" version because it was $16 cheaper. I do not recommend doing that. It arrived without a manual and missing parts. It was also dented and had some rust so I'm not sure why they advertised it as "like new." I returned it the next day and ordered a new one. Operation is smooth, just like my previous purchase, and if you can get five years worth of use out of it I definitely think it's worth it to have trash your kids and pets cannot get into. Very happy with this.

We had a large, plastic trash can with a manually activated, spring activated lid in the kitchen for over 15 years but the springs rusted out. We tried to replace it but could not find an equivalent. We tried a foot-operated trash can but that was a hassle. While shopping online, we saw several brands of motion-sensor operated trash cans that sounded like a good idea.We liked the rectangular shape of this one but some of the negative reviews made us a bit apprehensive. Those reviews talked about malfunctions of the sensor operation or the lid not closing. But, we proceeded with the purchase from Amazon.We've now had it for about 2 months and we are very happy with it! We did have a little problem in the beginning. It would only close completely about 80% of the time the first week we used it. But, we followed the instructions and turned the master switch off for over 2 hrs. before returning it back to operation. We did that cycle twice and since then, it has operated faithfully and reliably.We have only one minor complaint - very minor at that. The sensor is a bit too sensitive and if we walk to closely to the unit, it will activate the lid. It's not really a problem, just a minor nuisance.We're delighted with the product. Just wave your hand or trash above the lid and it pops open and stays open for 4 seconds and automatically closes. There is an "open" button that will open it and it will remain open, indefinitely, until the "close" button is touched. This allows us to clean something out over the trash can (empty hand-vac, dump coffee grounds, tear up mail with confidential info, peel an orange, etc.) And there is a red pilot light that blinks to indicate good batteries and normal operating conditions. Low battery power is indicated by the pilot light turning to yellow-amber instead of red.It's easy to take out the filled trash bag and put in a new one. There are no tools required for assembly but you do need to have 4 - "D" size batteries on-hand. There is a AC/DC adapter for the unit but that's optional and we have no electrical outlet nearby so we were not interested in that. Battery life is an unknown at this point but the instructions indicate 6 months as a normal use life cycle, depending upon family size and lifestyle variables.There is also an activated charcoal pouch that is designed to absorb odors. It's hard to assess its functionality. So far, we've not noticed any odors in the kitchen but then, we did not notice more odor with the previous, manual trash can with no charcoal filtering capability. We believe it to be a case of "might help, can't hurt" idea.So far we are pleased and consider it a good buy!Jim

Love it. It's gorgeous

Tengo menos de un año con el producto y se me acaba de romper un pieza de plástico que es la que sujeta va del mecanismo de engranes a la tapa, está pieza es la principal para que mecánicamente se pueda abrir o cerrar, quisiera preguntar si es posible que me enviaran la pieza como parte de la garantía, ya que de lo contrario el mecanismo de apertura y cierra ya no serviría y solo sería un bote común y corriente de basuras.

Loved the compact style. Stylish and excellent fit in our kitchen.

Very good, doggie proof kitchen can. Does the job, easy to use. Docked a star for the batteries and no plug.

We like the oblong shape, as it makes it easy to fit under the sink, next to the garbage and recycling containers. It also looks quite decent on the countertop, and the flashy green details are actually not irritating at all. The standard "small" (7.5 litre - 41x42cm - 16.3x16.6") compostable bags fit in nicely. One minor irritant is that the lid can sometimes fall into the container itself, but it is easy to fish it out.
