Nice for our Condo

This is a very nice trash can heavy duty. It is larger than a kitchen size so keep in mind the trash bags have to be oversized.

Sensor is not working!!

I recently purchased and received the trash can. The sensor is not functioning. I tried calling customer service but no one answering the phone. I really want this resolved but how can this problem be fixed if I can’t reach Nine Star?

Disappointed

After waiting for over a week to receive it, I was very disappointed , the trash can didn’t work. I have only purchased this brand twice before and loved it. Put new batteries twice, different brands, still didn’t work.

Broken in 2 weeks

Sensor and motor for lid broken in first two weeks. It takes a rare bag size (sold by company). It's big and bulky and a pain to return, but it looks nice.

Not a kitchen can

If you’re replacing your kitchen trash can, think again. This trash can is so wide that regular kitchen trash bags can’t go around the inside ring under the lid. Buying special bags defeats the purpose. Sent it back. Beautiful, but too large.

May cause thoughts of destruction

This trash can made me want to break things. It delays opening. So you're just standing there with trash in your hand. It severely Triggered me before I smashed it in my driveway.

Best Can Everrrr...so Luxe

I have zero issues with mine. I don't even think I change the batteries once a year, because I can't recall it's been so long. I do use the members mark 33 gal trash bags or I get the Hefty on sale. The trash can is amazing and we fill up ours about once a day or every second day. I will use a disinfectant wipe in my kitchen and then end by using it on the interior trash can lid area before I discard it. Easy peasy. I know I've had my trash can for years and I buy them for my grown children.
