Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the 3 Gal. Automatic Trash Can is the perfect size, especially for smaller spaces like guest bathrooms, and appreciate its ease of use, making it suitable for children. The sensor feature and automatic lid are also well-received, along with the product's quality and design. While the sensitivity of the sensor is a minor concern for some, the overall odor control and long battery life contribute to a positive customer experience.

    Too small

    Way too small. Online photos are deceiving bc they’re actually showing the larger ?13g trash cans. For this little wee thing, you have to get super close it for the lid to open. Perhaps may be ok if placed on a countertop or something but definitively NOT useful if placing on the floor.

    I had bought 5 of these. Opened and checked 2, returned all 5. There is a design flaw in these. The sensor does not respond or very picky in responding. This trash can would make you a patient person.

    Motion Sensor Does Not Work

    Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This looks great and was a great value at half price, but the whole idea of an automatic trash can is to open when it senses motion. The motion sensor on the one I got never worked. I could manually press the open and close button, but that defeats the purpose. If the one I got had a bad sensor, then I'm sure others will also..

      Hello,
      Do not wave your hand or rubbish above the sensor. The right gesture is placing your hand over the sensor for 1 second, then the lid will open. The sensor is located between the indicator light and the Open/Close button. BBY-ExBrand_Insignia

    Staggering how horrible this product is. Wouldn't close. If I wanted something that would stay open, I would have purchased a $2.00 open trash can. I can't put into words how low-quality this is. DO NOT BUY THIS.
