Product DescriptionThe Touchless Trashcan uses patented invisible harmless infrared technology. Place hand or debris about 6 inches away from the infrared sensor near the lid. It will open instantly when you approach and will close automatically in 3-second after debris has been released and hand moves away. Lid will remain open if debris or hand is within 6 inches range of the infrared sensor. There are 2 buttons on the front to open and close the lid manually and an on/off switch on the back of the trashcan. It creates a germ free, odor free, automated environment. It keeps your hands clean when cooking or touching your kid. Helps prevent contamination! It opens for you automatically when your hands or feet are occupied. Your kids will have fun to throw the trash for you. It just make sense! In fact, it outlasts most of the step-on and hand-touch trash cans. ''You don't touch it and you won't break it!'' Tested opening 100,000 times in laboratory. If you open 20 times a day, it can last over 10 years. This can actually be the last trash can you will ever buy. It saves you money.

What Others Say
Great can, buy the AC Adaptor though
I got this can to replace a very large "bullet" style can. This can stays a lot cleaner (since the kids aren't touching it), holds a lot of trash, and is very easy to deal with in getting the bag in/out. My only complaint is that the batteries seems to run out frequently (it uses 4 D cells);I think this might be due to the fact that we use it a lot with little kids throwing away one napkin at a time, etc. I would recommend buying the AC adapter if you are placing this near an outlet.
Best product ever!!!
My kiddo had a blast when I first got this and it is sooooo convenient.
Would like to have differ sizes for all over the house. I use this one in my kitchen and it really comes in handy!
Working fine, but YOu Will Need an AC Adapter
My roomies and I love this trashcan but I 've replaced the batteries twice in already a month. THIS one didnt come with an ac adapter, but I know some do come with one. This trashcan is a decent size b/c I know there are some that are so small, only adults could only use it. This one is actually big enough to where any one can fit a McDonald's size bag of trash. They use kitchen size bags and it really only take 4 seconds to put another bag in....no tying the bag or stuffing the plastic bag...its pretty simple...i love it. I pray it'll never break b/c I'll have to buy another one b/c I cant go back to step cans.
The sensor broke after 9 months
I contacted the company, and they asked me to ship the lid back to CA and to attach money order on the sum of $9.95 !!!!! for them to ship it back !!!.... I went to the post office and it will cost me $40 to ship it back + the $ 9.95. This company does not know how to treat a customer and probably in a bad shape to ask money to ship it back an item to you that was defected from the beginning.
I am stuck with it now and it cost so much !!! very disappointed
Please do not buy from them
so far so good
So far we like it, first one didnt work and took quite some time to get here so we had to wait another week for replacement but its working good now, says full set of batterys will last 10,000 uses we shall see im counting them ! lol
