This is perfect for what we needed it for. We can divide our plastic bottles from our cans.

Small Dent, Still Nice

I got this on sale and also used certificates so it was practically free. It’s all good, I don’t mind the two separate garbage bins. It helps me organize my thrash well enough so that I can fill it to the brim every time.
The sensor is perfect for me and doesn’t go off unless it is supposed to. The Three needed D batteries are fine since I get them super cheap in bulk.
There is a small to medium size dent on the side of the can unfortunately. I just turn it a certain way that it can’t be seen. It would take a week or two just to get a new one. Once again, I barely paid for it so I’m happy as is.

Great design. Keeps the garbage scents out. My only issue is that the lids close too quickly. The sensor does not work at times so i have to switch power off and on. Sometimes that works, other times it doesnt.

A lot bigger on the inside than I would have thought. Only downside is the lid comes up any time you walk by. I am hoping the battery will not die too quickly because of this.

Love the design and orientation of the doors. The capacity is sufficient for a two person home. It is light weight and easy to clean. To make it an even better waste receptacle it would be nice if the doors opened independently oh so it would help if there was some type of ventilation because the lid fits very tightly preventing any air circulation and mold grows very fast in that environment other than this I love the ways can I would give it a four star

This is a very large garbage can - so make sure you have room for it. If you do - it is awesome. I love the automatic lid and the side-by-side trash and recycling compartments. Simplified my kitchen/laundry room by replacing two cans with one. Apart from being large, my only other nit-pick is the labels on the front. I like having them there, but they look more like office/industrial artwork as opposed to having a more home décor-friendly look.

When I first ordered the trashcan I was very skeptical because I thought there wouldn't be enough room to carry much trash nor recycling. That was not the case, it actually fills the trash bags all the way. I do find the sensor to be handy because you just wave your hand and it opens. The only issue that I have but is not a big issue is that when I am passing by and I do get close it activates the sensor and opens the trash can. I do plan to purchase two more when they go back on sale.
