Convenient, sleek, malfunctions a bit
on July 26, 2026
Posted by: Shanece R.
5 stars for the physical design—I love that food & trash won’t get stuck at the top, back of the inner lid as trash goes in. The size of the sensor can is just right.
4 stars for the technology—the voice command doesn’t seem to work at all. The sensor can opens up when no one is near it.
4 stars for the price—I wish it was a bit less expensive.

Warranties matter
on July 26, 2026
Posted by: Jennifer Z.
I have always loved simple human items. From my dish rack to my trash can. My hands are always full so when my touchless tag can stopped working I tried every truck in the book to no avail. I contacted simple human and shared what was happening and my warranty allowed me to get a new replacement within just a few days. Thanks for keeping things simple for me!!!!

Really like the quiet clothes lid, and that it responds to voice command

I love the garbage can. I had a prior simple human garbage can for over 25 years. Really like this one quite a bit better because you can barely hear the lid open and close. And I love that it responses to voice commands.

Great can, odor eliminator fell in trash
on July 13, 2026
Posted by: JoAnn R.
Great trash can! Thin profile, and both the motion sensor and voice activation work well. It is easy to clean. The only issue is that the odor eliminator which was included in my purchase fell off into the trash and I inadvertently threw it out! I attached it according to the directions, so I would consider that the one flaw. Otherwise this would be a five star review.

Love the voice activation. Had the touch activated prior. Love the option of having both types of activation.

Unreal, garbage can friend
on July 10, 2026

The can is absolutely superb and simple. I would give a shout out to my friend Brad for recommending this garbage can. I talk to it daily and admire its skills. We may not see hi to eye because it is shorter than me, but it opens that lid as soon as I ask it to. it makes throwing away garbage simple.

As Perfect as it gets

This is my second sensor can which after many years failed. The replacement is perfect, opens and closes to voice commands as well as to gestures. The very best trash can ever!

You'll Love This Can!
on July 6, 2026
Posted by: Steven U.
I love my Simplehuman motion- and voice-activated trash can. The convenience of not having to step on a pedal every time you want to open the lid is great but being able to tell the can to open before you even get to it is incredible.
It looks great with my other stainless-steel appliances, offers plenty of trash capacity, and the replacement bags are easily accessible from the built-in storage compartment.
I also want to mention that it comes with a 5-year warranty, which shows that Simplehuman stands behind its products.
If you're on the fence about buying one, I think it's absolutely worth the money. I give it a 10/10!
