Unfortunately the battery option does not work. 6 brand new batteries were inserted but trash can didn’t work. Only works when plugged into an outlet. Very disappointed because I don’t have an outlet where I wanted the trash can to be.
It’s strange to think a little thing like voice command of you trash can can save so many headaches. . but it’s amazing… My Aunt stayed with us for two weeks then called when she went home complaining her trash can wasn’t listening to her… You just get used to the convenience so quickly. . highly recommend. .
Thanks to the people at simple human for helping me out with a claim and getting me a new 58l sensor can. My old one broke and they made my warranty come thru. Thank you awesome company.
Our niece just bought her first house and we wanted to ensure she felt not only proud of what she did, but proud also for how everything looks. She has excellent taste and this fits right in. She is grown up and now has nice grown up accents to appreciate.
Our son bought us one of the voice activated trash cans a couple of years ago, and we love it. Soooo. We bought one for another family member this year who had really wanted one and they are thrilled. It was opened when we had additional company over for Christmas, so there may be another sale after they were amazed by it.
Great product. Just make it last longer and make easier access to to take apart so when it starts to fail, the customer can do the many troubleshooting suggestions that simple human provides. Also include the troubleshooting suggestions in a separate manual. Thank goodness there's a 5 year warranty. SH should take note that this design has been very well known to fail /break/malfunction and its documented on social media. Please improve the design mechanism.
