I got this can to replace another brand I had for a long time. I am super happy with the purchase. The product arrived very soon. perfect size and design. Is super quiet, The whole top lift to replace the bags instead to take the top off like the other brand I had. I hope this last many years.

The most wonderful gift I have ever given myself! In these times of Coronavirus it's an extra layer of sanitation because I don't have to touch the garbage can. Absolute love it. In fact it's my second one.

Beautiful Product, Disappointing Customer Service

This was not our first simplehuman trash can, but it was our first purchase directly from this site. The trash can is beautiful and exactly as described. We purchased it to replace our older simplehuman step can that finally broke after 10 yrs. I was hesitant to go with the sensor/no touch can just because it is one more thing to break. I loved the idea of potentially no dirty fingerprints all over the can so I gave this one a try. The delivery was prompt and the can looked beautiful in our kitchen. The can came with batteries and a sample liner pack and everything worked great. Where the 1 star falls off...the can stopped working the next day. I read the little book and it said if we see a red light the battery is low. I looked over and red light it was! For the price of this can you'd think that this company could afford to include 4 batteries that aren't dead!?! It is just bad form. I 'd rather you not include them at all than slap me in the face by sending dead batteries. Cheap kiddie toys come with batteries that last longer than the 12 hrs my straight from the box/manufacturer batteries lasted. It just wasn't a good first impression.

Love, Love, Love This Purchase

This is actually our second Touchless trash can from Simplehuman. Our first one is still kicking. This one is so much quieter and stylish. Works great! The design for the changing of the bags is exceptional. It couldn't be easier! The only complaint would be the lack of an external power source (it will only operate on batteries). Our first one had an optional power supply which we purchased.

Very nice can, could use some improvements

Very nice can.
Some features I didn't see in the description, the underside of the lid is lined with a plastic insert that makes it flush and allows for easy cleaning. The lid also has a blue light on the front edge that turns on when the motion sensor is activated then turns off letting you know it is going to close unless you activate the motion sensor again. The motion sensor is activated from both the top and the side. The bottom interior is concave plastic with air vents around the perimeter, the concave area will collect liquids if for some reason a bag leaks, and the vents break the suction to allow for easy removal of a full trash liner. This can is sturdy, and attractive with some well thought out design.

Here's my list where I see room for improvement.
It cannot be set against the wall, the lid hits the wall when it opens. It needs to be around 1/2" away to avoid damaging the lid or wall with continued use. My current resolution was to stack self adhesive felt pads to the back of the can near the top, until I find a more cosmetic resolution.

When opening the ring and lid to place a new liner the can becomes too heavy and will want to tip over on its back. My resolution, I filled a 1 quart Ziploc freezer bag with sand and placed it the the bottom, this counterbalanced the weight of the ring and lid enough to not tip over while placing a new liner in.
The onboard liner compartment is great until you or your husband has hand compacted the trash down which in turn pushes the liner and it's contents into the dispenser opening for the liners. When I went to remove the full liner it became a bit challenging as it was caught in the liner dispenser opening. My resolution, I cut a piece of old flexible polypropylene cutting mat and affixed it with duct tape to make a flap covering the liner dispenser hole, while allowing me to flip the flap up to retrieve a new liner.
It doesn't have portability, no handles, indents, cutouts to allow you to grab and drag the can around, although the plastic feet slide pretty well over the floor. I looked to see if simplehuman offered casters in lieu of feet and they don't. My resolution, I traced the bottom of the can on a piece of wood and cut it a bit larger than the can, painted the wood white to match my can, affixed casters to the wood, slid out the plastic feet it came with, and set the can on top, voila portability with just a push of one finger.
I have 2 simplehuman cans of different variety both, I would purchase again, they make quality products backed by warranties.
I also have a kitchen full of their slide out cabinet organizers, which are great.
