I'm very happy with my sensor bin. I opted for the cream model which matches my kitchen to perfection. I've never had a sensor bin before and now I'll never buy another kind. The sensor means that you don't have to touch it throughout the entire period between placing the bin bag and emptying it. You can also switch the sensor off (switch is at the back of the bin) in order to save battery power (4xAA batteries). All at a competitive price too. The five-year guarantee is the icing on the cake. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
