I have purchased mine almost 3 years ago now and I love, love the product. It easily rolls around to wherever you need it when peeling and preparing food. It’s as hygienic as it can be as no one ever touches it. I wasn’t sure how long the batteries would last but the first set lasted over two years and I only replaced them because I didn’t want the batteries to leak as they sometimes do when too old. As for installing the trash bags, well, it’s a little more tedious, then again when you want a neat finish to hide overlapping plastic hanging out, one has to go the extra effort to give it a tidy finish. We recycle almost everything so the recycling compartment needs to be emptied several times a week, while the trash side lasts all week.
