Customer Review: welcome to the future
Summary: 5 Stars
I do not understand why the iTouchless trash can has gotten so many bad reviews. Since I have never used it or seen it prior to owning one I was very reluctant to get it based on all the negative things being said about it. This review is dedicated to anyone like me who had a lot of questions that no one really answered or discussed.
First of all, let me discuss the basic function of this trash can; the fact that it can open up on its own. It does it perfectly. All you need to do is go and throw something out and it automatically opens up. It has an electric eye right on the front of the top of the lid that will open up as soon as anything is within 5 inches of it. It's also very "smart." I have mine stationed right below a telephone and a light switch and it has never once opened spontaneously.
I also love this trash can because it is HUGE. It is very tall and very wide (but it also is slim and slender, if that makes any sense). I can get so much into it and still have extra room. This saves me on garbage bags because I don't need to get as much, and it saves time and effort because I don't need to empty the can as often.
Speaking of emptying the can, I was very afraid to do this. Again this was something that everyone said was a very poor task. I have not had this problem at all. I love the fact that it has the insertion ring because everything is completely self contained. And all I do is pull up the insertion ring and then grab the bag. It's so simple!
The installation/set is next to nothing. The can requires 4 D-batteries. You just pop the batteries in, put in the trash bag around the insertion ring and you're all set. I use larger sized bags, 30 gallon because these seem to hold a lot more and are much stronger. It's also been my experience that this is a universal type of can that will take any sized bag that is a minimum of 13 gallons.
iTouchless is the perfect addition to my kitchen. Because I am constantly cooking, preparing and baking and this is really like having an extra set of hands. I no longer have to worry if I am preparing chicken or have flour on my hands when there's something that needs to be thrown out.
The can also includes an on/off switch (on the back) and a few indicator lights. It also has manual buttons if you prefer to open it own your own or close it on your own. Speaking of closing, it knows to stay open the for exact amount of time and then closes when it's necessary, giving me enough time to throw out anything.
If you purchase it from Amazon (and frankly why wouldn't you, they have the best price and the best service) they will package it perfectly. The original manufacturer's box is packaged inside their own cardboard box. It also comes with an instructional manual and iTouchless also provides a 1-year warranty.
Cleaning the can is so easy. I simply spray it with a little Lysol spray to keep it fresh or use a soapy sponge on it. I also use Mr. Clean wipes, as well. And I keep an Arm & Hammer insert in the bottom of it (outside of the bag) since there is so much extra room. This helps keep everything even extra fresh and clean. And since there is so much extra space I keep my entire garbage bag roll inside the bottom of the can.
I also like this can because it's very attractive. The black color matches my kitchen exactly. And I like that it's totally wireless (it will also take a plug, but I like how it looks better by itself). And when the lid opens within itself it has a very futuristic look. I can remember as a child being in school many years ago and my teacher said that in the future people will have trash cans that open on their own. No one believed her. But she was right. The future is now.

Description of iTouchless Fully Automatic Stainless Steel Touchless Trashcan SX, 13 Gallon (52 Liter)
This new 52 Liter Touchless Trashcan SX model uses the latest sensor technology and patented space saving lid opening design. As your hand or debris enter the zone 6 inches from the infrared sensor on top of the trash can, the lid will automatically slide open. No up or down lid motion means more capacity in less space. The lid will remain open if debris or hand is within the 6 inch range of the infrared sensor. 3 seconds after your hand moves away from the lid it closes automatically. At top front of the lid there are open and close buttons for manual operation, and there is a on/off power switch on the back of the trash can. This 3rd generation automatic trash can is the only trash can with the automatic space saving design. Fits any regular 13 or 18 gallon trash bag. Comes with bag retainer ring to secure and hide the trash bag inside the trash can. Optional AC power adaptor is available. The Benefits: This 100% touch-free trash can creates a germ free, odor free, automated environment. It keeps your hands clean while you are cooking or playing with your children. It also helps prevent contamination, which reduces the threat of certain illnesses and infections. Because the trash can turns an ordinary chore into something fun, your kids will have enjoy throwing the trash away for you. In addition, the Touchless Trashcan could outlast most step-on and hand-touch cans since if you don't touch it, you can't break it! This could actually be the last trash can you ever buy, which will save you money, mess, time, and now space too.Wastebaskets
