    Love the compartments for easily recycling. Large double compartments make this trash can a good purchase.

    Seems to work fine. Changing out the garbage bags is a little annoying. They seem to get stuck in there tight as you fill it up and if you are not careful, the bag rips (even the stronger flex bags).

    Purchased 3 months ago and its already broken. Ive changed the batteries multiple times but the top will not open. The sensor is still functional but the lid cannot lift more than 1/4 of the way when it is fully powered and after a few days the batteries die and it can no longer partially open. The top was never dropped or cleaned (they warn you about washing the lid because of potential water damage). I have two smaller versions of this trash can and have not had any issues but for some reason the most expensive version was far less durable. Unfortunately its outside of the return window so im stuck with it.

    Absolutely love it. I love to be able to sperate my regular garbage and my recyclables. It is very nice not having to push a foot pedal and it pops up hands free, great for throwing away meat wrappers. I have been using it for several months and batteries are still going strong, nor have my cats activated the motion sensor. My mom saw it and loved it. Once it goes back on sale or deal of the day (that is how I got it) I will pick one up for her too!

      I'm sorry to hear that your device stopped working even after replacing the batteries. It's frustrating when that happens! While I can't directly troubleshoot the issue, I recommend checking the battery contacts, ensuring they're clean and properly aligned. - Carl | Insignia Products BBY-ExBrand_Insignia
