Both are attractive and work well. The 13 gallon can is actually too tall for the standard sized bag liners, and the bag is stretched when in place. To solve this issue I used one of the packing pieces and placed in the bottom thereby shortening the depth by six inches. Based on some reviews, make sure you keep all packing materials for 6 months just in case it malfunctions. Wish the entire top would open.

In the description of this product, it mentions that it controls odors. I specifically ordered this trashcan in order to control odors and eliminate our fruit fly problem that our open older trashcan proliferated. Everything about this trashcan met my expectations except for the odor control. It is just slightly better at it, is all. The open and shutting mechanism works fine, even though it can be a little glitchy at times, it looks great in the kitchen, is easy to set out of the way, and b/c I am a cleaning nut, I have no problem maneuvering the lid out of the way when necessary. Simply put, I am sick of fruit flies, and living in South GA the warm moist weather encourages them. This trashcan just didn't eliminate them.

I have had this about a week. The only problem I have is that I could not put the trash can under a counter top. It is just a over hang of the counter but the sensor detects the counter so I had to find another place for the can. Other than that it is a nice trash can!

Plain and Simple, just get this. Big Bin - size is plenty and works great, no hiccup or anything. Simple to use, nothing fancy but don't have problems, that's what I was looking for. The kept open feature is good. Sensor works as you would expect. If any object is still within sensor area, the cover won't close, that's a feature both small and big bins. But the Kept open feature is only for big bin. Small Bin - works great, everything as expected. Battery Life - been using for more than half a year (I forgot), at least couple of months, still holding up fine, no signs of low battery. I am using Duracell. 5/5 hands down. Improvement - Always room for improvement, if they can make the opening door / area bigger that would be Perfect. Especially useful when you want to dispose vacuum (i.e. canister) wastes. For me, I just take off the top and dump the wastes this way.

Trashcans are both a good size and very helpful when your hands are full. I love the sleek, clean look. I once had the step open can that broke relatively quickly. This one is easy to set up, turn on and you are on your way. I definitely recommend.

We have had an automatic trash can for the last 10 yrs. It is really the way to go. Our last one was the really slim one, I like this kind better. the small one is perfect for the bath if you have dogs that like to eat the trash. the color of the grey top blends in w/stainless appliances . Not a big expense for what you get. as we have just got this one I can't say about durability, but our last one was made by same company and lasted about 7 years

It is so handy not to have to lift the lid to put in trash because the lid automatically opens when you hold your hand over the top. The liner is hidden under the lid so the can always looks neat and clean. It also does not take up much room. I think it looks more expensive than it is. I had one before which lasted several years.

My main reason for purchasing these trash cans was to keep my dog out of the garbage. The larger one serves this purpose perfectly. The smaller one is so low to the floor that he is able to get his nose over the sensor and open it. It seems to have deterred him though, I think maybe the lid came down on his snout and scared him. Now for the functionality. The sensor is more sensitive than I had hoped. I have a small kitchen and little space to put a trash can. Every time I walk by it, the lid goes up. This is a little annoying but more so, I think the battery life will suffer. It would be great to have a sensitivity adjustment. I would definitely recommend this product. I would also recommend that Nine Stars do something to adjust the sensitivity.

I Love my sensor trash can set. I had purchased one like this at Kmart a few years ago, it had messed up but my husband fixed it, but it is messed up again. So when I seen this online I had to have another one, I love not having to raise the lid. I would recommend this to everyone.

The garbage can looks great with the stainless steel appliances in kitchen. It is light weight and just the right size. The bathroom size is also great. Good bargain for sale price on this combination. The batteries to operate the auto opening seems to drain quicker then expected.
