Touch-Free Stainless Steel 13-Gallon Trash Can

We bought this model a little over a year ago. However, it has been some months since the sensor worked properly. We had trouble with the manual close button on the sensor. After about 6 mos. it quit. The manual open sensor was next to go. The trashcan did open with the sensor, but if I had a bit of trash to put in there I needed to turn the can off and open the lid. When I finished I had to turn the can back on. Now the sensor and motor are not working. I think with the amount of money you pay for this it should work for more than a year. Also, I have searched their website and they do not offer a replacement lid for this model. I am very disappointed in this product and would not recommend it to anyone.

Absolutely wonderful. It's the second one I purchased. I just wish this product had replacement parts. The company shipped right on time, no delay, exactly what was expected.

I bought the Original Touchless Stainless Steel Trashcan (13 gallon), and it was wonderful. The touchless feature is great, and the plastic ring that holds the bag in place worked fabulously. The shape and finish were also nice.

So, when I decided I needed a smaller one for recyclables (13 gallons is too heavy for lots of glass and paper), I wanted another iTouchless, and decided on the "newer" version, and purchased the 8 gallon NX version.iTouchless Fully Automatic Stainless Steel Touchless Trashcan NX, 11 Gallon (42 Liter)

However, the newer version is not as nice. The sensor may be better, but the circular base takes up quite a bit more space, and the wire ring used to hold the bag in place doesn't work nearly as well.

So, if you are going to get a touchless trash can, go with the original one. You can tell the difference because the original has more of a rectangular footprint.

I am very happy with the item I received. It works flawlessly and couldn't be happier with my garbage can!

I bought this trash can over 2 years ago and it is still working flawlessly -- and I don't even recall ever changing the batteries yet. (Though maybe with busier households you'd get shorter battery life.) I use mine as a garbage can in the kitchen and I love it. I approach with wrappings from raw meat and the cover flips open on its own so I don't have to worry about touching the lid with my bacteria contaminated hands. (I need a kitchen faucet that works the same way!) And, naturally, it's great when your hands are full. It is also excellent at keeping in unpleasant odors -- at least until the cover flips open and then you realize it's probably time to change the bag. ;-) Ours is near a high-traffic area in the kitchen but is tucked back enough so it doesn't over-react to passing bodies. Not only do I have no complaints with this item, I can't imagine working around a kitchen without it!
