iTouchless 13 Gallon Wings-Open Kitchen Trash Can with Lid and Odor Filter, Dog Proof Stainless Steel Automatic TrashCan Garbage Bin for Home Office Work Bedroom Living Room Garage Slim Wastebasket

If you are like me you might be hunting for a trash can that will keep your dog out. My dog had an issue of getting into the trash can when we’re were not home. This had become so much of problem that he had broken 2 trash cans in 2 months. So I looked for a trash can listed as pet proof. To my dismay there were not many options were to could lock the lid. But I did stumble upon this trash can and figured I would give it a try.I could not have been more impressed!!1. The lock close feature works. You can lock it when you leave and there is no way for your dog to get in it. As a bonus after sometime our dog stoped trying to even get in. So now I do not need to lock it (I think he might be scared of it because it opens on its own).2. The capacity of this trash can is amazing! No more taking the trash out every night or 2. Often times we end up going 4-5 days without needing to take it out.3. The charcoal filter works. I never smell anything from my trash can when it is closed. This helps us get 4-5 days with out having to empty it.4. The sensor works very well. It opens very easy and is simple to get used to. Also, I have never changed the batteries in over 6 months.Overall amazing trash can I am a huge fan. For anyone who wanted the negatives there are a couple.1. The lock just prevents the lid from opening. It does not turn the motor off. So the lid will try to open but gets stoped. I worry this could break the motor over time.2. It is a little bit difficult to clean around the top there are just some tight spots to get into.Other than that I have been nothing but happy with this trash can.

My husband purchased this because field mice were getting in through the bottom of our RV to get into the trash can compartment of our RV. They would make so much noise inside the trash can that they would wake me up at night.At first the trash can would not work inside the compartment and had some of the problems I’ve seen written in reviews. The color above it is important. My counters are white underneath. The sensors appear to be optical as opposed to motion detection and white does not reflect back. My husband covered the bottom of the counter over the trash can in black which made the can open and close perfectly. I suspect that may be the problem with some of the reviews here. They need to move the trash can to another area to have the correct color for the optical sensor.The second problem we encountered is that the sensor was not located in a place for me to wave my hand over it due to the small compartment size. My husband attached a piece of painter’s tape to the bottom of the lid and let it hang so that I rotate the lid to replicate the wave which opens the trash can. I remove the lid and drop in the trash, then replace the lid and either rotate it so that the tape is positioned away from the sensor or simply place the lid in the close position; thus the can closes. We intend to replace the tape with something else such as Velcro.My mouse problem has disappeared as they can’t get into my trash can anymore! Thank you iTouchless!

It's a great idea in theory. However it does not work as intended. The sensor is ridiculously temperamental and touchy, and works inconsistently. Sometimes you can wave your hand and it will open instantly, other times you wave back and forth several times before the lid will open. Sometimes someone walking by sets it off, other times it doesn't recognize any movement anywhere near it not even right on top of the sensor. Then there are times when it just repeatedly opens and closes at random when no one is even in the room. When it works it's great. However, if you change the trash bag, wipe off the lid, unplug it, or move or jiggle the can the sensor will suddenly not work and the light will just blink. Getting it to work again is seriously frustrating since you have to repeatedly try all the options for resetting - turn if off and on, unplug it and wait 20 seconds before plugging it back in, hold down the open button for 20 seconds, hold down the close button for 20 seconds. And sometimes none of it works, so I end up unplugging it and leaving it for several hours. The basket for the filter is inside the can under the lid on the sensor side, so it gets knocked off or falls off easily and is pretty useless. I kept having to fish mine out of the can (eww), then eventually I couldn't find it so I'm guessing it ended up in the trash by mistake.Bought it in October 2020. A month later, I had to return it and got a replacement because the lid completely stopped working. Then 4 months later, long after the return window closed, the new lid did the exact same thing - completely stopped working. This time I contacted the manufacturer who replaced it under the warranty. I assumed that the lid was defective and hoped the new one would work better. However it's now been 4 months and the new one is behaving the same way - inconsistent, unreliable, and frustrating. I'm discouraged because I really had high hopes for this thing, but it was a waste of money.

I purchased this kitchen trash can 2 years ago, and I’m very pleased.The sensor does not open if you wave trash over it, however the Sensor opening the lid has operated 100% of the time waving my hand within about 6” of the top.It must sense your hand, and your results are 100% of the time opening!Batteries last a very long time.When you turn off the power switch in the back to empty the garbage, you’ll need to press the close button to reset the sensor after turning back on.OUTSTANDING TRASH CAN!!!!

Looks sleek and functions well

Tengo un Beagle y el bote de basura era su juguete preferido lo que era muy estresante. Ahora gracias a esta maravilla puede estar horas intentando abrirlo pero no es posible gracias al seguro anti-mascotas. Es bonito, práctico y funciona muy bien.

quotidien

Tres pratique super pratique ce couvercle sauf qu’il y a 2mm entre les deux côtés du couvercle ce qui laisse passer toutes les odeurs… rendu le lendemain .

Lindo, práctico y funcional sin embargo difícil de limpiar y se rompió la tapa a los 3 meses dejó de cerrar

For years,I put recycling in grocery bags and hung them on my railing until I got this can. It hold quite a bit and freed up the clutter from my banister. It looks great and seems durable. The only downside is that I use the C batteries and after a while the sensor is affected by the loss of power and will be a bit expensive in the long run, however the touch less wings are great and throwing out garbage couldn’t be any easier.
