Review: Automatic bin lid didn’t last for 1 year - Overall bin was very good and 50L good capacity. Automatic bin lid didn’t even last for 1 year and stopped working. Replacement bin lid is costing nearly £33. No spare motor for infrared is available so far.
Review: Great bin... pricey, but worth it! :) - I love this bin! It’s pretty good looking for a bin too! I don’t actually use the hands free opening sensor as I have it right next to my back door and it would probably open every time my dog needed to go for a wee, but it’s brilliant anyway! I just bought it because it’s slimmer than the usual pedal bins but also big enough so that you don’t have to empty it every 5 mins!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Automatic bin lid didn’t last for 1 year

Overall bin was very good and 50L good capacity. Automatic bin lid didn’t even last for 1 year and stopped working. Replacement bin lid is costing nearly £33. No spare motor for infrared is available so far.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great bin... pricey, but worth it! :)
*by E***D on 7 January 2020*

I love this bin! It’s pretty good looking for a bin too! I don’t actually use the hands free opening sensor as I have it right next to my back door and it would probably open every time my dog needed to go for a wee, but it’s brilliant anyway! I just bought it because it’s slimmer than the usual pedal bins but also big enough so that you don’t have to empty it every 5 mins!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lovely Bin - However Broke After 6 Months
*by M***I on 24 September 2021*

The bin is lovely! The batteries last for a while and although the door doesn’t stay open for long (no way to change the timer) its a great addition to our kitchen! However after 6 months the bin stopped working but we received a replacement from Amazon with no problem or questions asked. Altogether lovely bin, a bit hard to clean around the lid area but good!
