This is a fun and quirky trash can. I've only had it a couple of weeks, but it is working great. I feel like I've made a connection to it...kind of like a little pet. It opens its mouth on command and even sometimes when you reach over it or pass by. It's a little more difficult to change the trash bag than my old can, but not hard to get used to. It fills up very full and you can push a button to leave the lid open if you have a lot of plates to scape and don't want to keep opening and closing it. Have fun with it!

Generally satisfied with the 9-star sensor slim touchless 13-gal trash can. I am disappointed in how slowly it opens and how many times I have to wave my hand over the sensor to get it to open. That is a bit frustrating for the price. But it is nice looking and holds 13-gal plastic bags seamlessly.

I am a repeat buyer of this thrash can. The earlier one's motor started acting erratic after three years of use. The thrash can looks elegant, is definitely durable, and the batteries have to be replaced once in nine months or so. I definitely recommend it.

Like so many other reviews I found after the fact, just 2 months after buying it, the lid began opening and closing randomly when no one was even in the room. From what I also read about trying to get it fixed via the "warranty", it's not worth the shipping and the hassle. I really like the concept, but I'll go with a brand with better reviews in the future.

I love that there is a open button on this. That way I can scoop the litter box until I am done. Then I press the close button. Sometimes the sensor is not sensitive enough. It doesn't see my hand. I have to tap right on the sensor spot for it to see me. Overall, I give it 4 stars. It's good for a tight spot where a pedal trash can doesn't always fit.

This was such an awesome choice in trash cans. There is no getting food on your walls or trash can from people tossing their trash because you have to stand over the trash can to open it and put your trash in. My hubby is very pleased with the amount of trash that it actually holds (full bag of trash), and the lid that holds the bag in place is awesome. I'm ordering another one!!!!

I bought the 13 gallon model WM-50-13 at Walmart and have had about 6 months. I changed the batteries once after 3 months, and it was fine after that. It started slowing a bit, so I changed the batteries today. Now the sensor won't work. I double-checked to make sure I had the batteries secure and in the right position, and I did a light wipe (not wet) to make sure everything was clean. The lid goes up and down manually but sensor will not work. I tried calling and was put on hold, then cut off by Ninestars. Not very pleased.

This trash can looks great but that's all. Got it out the box, put it to together and began testing. The lid opened and closed three times and stopped working. I removed the batteries, put them back and turned it on and off nothing worked. Returned it for a refund.

Ok, so I'm still pretty impressed with this trash can and I've had it about a month. I guess it makes me feel "cool" to own it.. sad I know, but everyone who comes over thinks it's neat. Anyway, I got it at a GREAT price on walmart.com vs the prices for the same or similar trashcans at the actual walmart store and or competitors (Target, Bed,Bath&Beyond, Home Depot, HomeGoods, etc.). Most were $40+ more for the same size/features. I remember reading other reviews saying this wasn't very durable. I could see how it could be dented, but I am single, have no animals or kids so I don't see it getting dented easily. Appearance wise - it's nice, but come on, it's a trashcan, so I rated it 4 stars. lol Hope this is helpful.

Works very well, opens widely, good size. To keep garbage to stay open, have to keep hand or dish over sensor or it will close on you, but doesn't take long to get used to and isn't a sensitive sensor. Just know that it does not come with the 4 D-size batteries it requires to work.
