There are good points and bad points to the bin so rather than writing about it I'll list the pros and cons
Pros
1, The lid does open when you wave a hand or object over the sensor making it easy to put cooking rubbish inside keeping your hand clean.
2, Its easy to empty and replace a bin bag and theres hardly any suction
3. Its a nice stylish design that fits into a modern kitchen being small and discrete also.
Cons
1. The bin will open when you walk past it and if you have a busy kitchen this will soon be a pain as the lid claps away.
2. Obviously it requires 4 AA batteries to work the motor and sensor, not sure on the life of these as we've only had it a month.
3. Its very light and when empty easy to knock over, I added some cat litter to the bottom to act as ballast for ours.
All round impressions are good and I think it was a good addition to our kitchen. You can turn it off and on with a handy button around the back of the lid. If your thinking about one look at the list above and weigh it up !
I found so many interesting stuff in your blog especially its discussion. From the tons of comments on your articles, I guess I am not the only one having all the enjoyment here! keep up the good work... Kevin Patrick Hobbs
