Although I was hesitant on purchasing this can due to the higher price I’m glad I did so far. It’s been working great ! Haven’t had to change batteries yet and it’s very quiet when opening and closing. I like the ability to activate the longer open time before closing feature and it looks great in the kitchen. It also seem to hold quite a bit of trash. I got 2 packs of bags with it and still haven’t had to use any of my own bags I’ve had yet. There stiff bags and have no stretch or flex to them but there tough and haven’t torn open by accident yet and seem to do the job. I don’t think anyone would be disappointed with this item if they purchase it. And it you want a design or flowers or something on it they sell decals on this site that you can purchase that fit and look great on the can.
