I absolutely love this trash can. It was a little hard for me to convince my husband that it’s worth that kind of money, but the 5 year warranty did the trick. If you’ve ever owned a sensor trash can you know that it will eventually go out. So this is why this warranty is so great! I can say “open can” and the lid will rise so i don’t have to get things dirty if my hands are full. It’s the perfect size for trash and recycling needs.
