## At a glance

- The listing states a 50-litre capacity and a slim footprint of 41L x 26W x 57H centimetres.
- Wave a hand within the stated 15 cm sensing distance for automatic opening. The lid is listed to close after 6 seconds.
- Stay-open operation holds the lid at an 87° angle, while the soft-close feature is described as reducing slamming noise.
- Manual control is available as an alternative to the sensor.
- The listing recommends bags sized 70 x 90 cm or larger.

## Pros

- 50-litre capacity provides room for everyday kitchen waste without frequent emptying.
- Touchless sensor opening and manual control offer two ways to operate the lid.
- Stay-open mode can be useful during food preparation when repeated opening is needed.
- The anti-fingerprint finish is intended to resist visible smudges, and the stated 26 cm width may suit narrower spaces.

## Cons

- The sensor requires four C batteries, which are not included.
- The stated sensing range is limited to 15 cm, so hands need to be brought close to the sensor.

## Before you buy

- The lid is stated to open to 69 cm high, so check the available overhead clearance despite the listing's low-countertop wing-lid claim. The 30 x 22 cm opening may also be narrower than some buyers expect from a 50-litre bin.

## In the box

- Automatic trash can, quantity 1 (Included)
- User guide, quantity 1 (Included)

## A good fit for

- Households wanting a large-capacity bin with sensor or manual lid operation.
- Kitchens where a slim rectangular bin and stay-open mode are useful.

## Less suited to

- Buyers who want a bin that works without buying and fitting C batteries.
- Spaces where the 69 cm open height or 30 x 22 cm opening would be unsuitable.

## Customer feedback

Customer feedback highlights the bin's size, appearance and ease of use, including a favourable mention of the delay between opening and closing. These points are relevant to its listed 50-litre capacity and timed lid operation, though feedback does not establish how well those specifications perform in every kitchen. The overall ratings lean positive, but a smaller share are low ratings, so experiences are not uniformly favourable.
- Positive themes: Customers describe the size as appealing and appreciate the appearance.
- Positive themes: Customers mention ease of use, including the opening-to-closing delay.
