The Benefits of the Touchless Trashcan This trashcan 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 trashcan turns an ordinary chore into something fun, your kids will have fun throwing the trash away for you. In addition, the Touchless Trashcan outlasts most of the step-on and hand-touch cans. If you can't touch it, you can't break it! These cans have been opened 100,000 times in laboratory tests, and they're still going strong. In fact, if you open your can 20 times a day, it can last over 10 years. This could actually be the last trashcan you ever buy, which will save you money, mess, and time.
Technology and Eco-Friendly Features Professionals recognize Touchless Trashcan as the next generation of waste receptacles. Its non-touch hygienic features meet the immediate needs in healthcare facilities and elderly homes. The new SilenX technology makes the closing of the lid even quieter while the "eagle eye" water-resistant sensor features reliable point-n-lock beam technology. In addition, the special energy saving design of Touchless Trashcan enables its four "D" size heavy duty batteries to support up to 10,000 consecutive openings and closings, or more than one year of use in non-frequent circumstances. There's also never a "fallen bag" problem with the Touchless Trashcan. The specially designed garbage bag retainer ring tightly holds the edges of the bag to prevent it from falling, and it seals the odors inside. You can use regular plastic garbage bags or even grocery bags, so there's no need to buy special garbage bags which many high-end garbage cans require.
The Touchless Trashcan will improve the look of your kitchen, giving it an ultra-modern look and feel. It comes with one year limited manufacturer's warranty and a 60-day unconditional money back guarantee.

Works good:
Works good, like the fact that the bag is totally inside the can so the dog can't pull it out. A bit annoying that when you walk too close past it the can will open. But you get used to it. The handsfree use is nice.
Only if it could take itself out to the curb automatically:
The iTouchless has been wonderful in our household. It is so much fun it seems we are having to swap out bags more often because every bit of trash in in the iTouchless. The house is spotless!!! So far I have not had any complaints. I haven't run into any problems other than user errors. We lost the plastic ring one time during a bag change. I don't remember where the battery is for the unit. I hope it isn't in a hard to reach location.
Great Gift Idea:
To all those wondering - my mother gave me one of these about 3 years ago and it still works great! Every now and then a glitch with the lid but still going strong even after a cross country move (where the outside got a bit dinged) but I wouldn't trade it (and will buy another when I have to replace this one).
Nice idea, poor execution:
The sensor and lid work great; it's the rest of the can that is poorly made. The main lid does not fit well on the metal can, and the plastic ring to support trash bag does not fit securely within the metal can, so the heavy lid sometimes tips, and the trash bag often slides down into the can. The trash bag ring is held only by friction within the walls of the can, which is not strong enough to support a full trash bag.
