Seemed like a great concept in the beginning, but way more complicated than it needs to be. For instance, I see no good reason for the bag tie to have to sick out the front of the lid. i found it confusing and time consuming to set up, when I should have been able to simply insert the bag into the receptacle and slide the lid over it without having to mess with the bag's tie. I did love the motion detector that causes the lid to open without you having to touch anything. Unfortunately, the cover for the batteries fell off without my noticing, and by the time I realized the lid wasn't opening bcuz the batteries had also fallen out, the battery cover was long gone, and so were the batteries. I am now on my 3rd set of replacement batteries. As I said at the beginning, this trash can is a great concept. It just needs more tweaking. It looks great, too.
