Mirage-X 47 Liter / 12.4 Gallon Touchless Rectangular Motion Sensor Trash Can with Removable Liner, Brushed Stainless Steel Finish

I finally upgraded to a full-size recycling bin (EKO Phantom-T 50L/13.2 gallon vertical motion sensor version) since the Simplehuman under cabinet combo unit couldn't hold much more than a single 2L soda bottle on the recycling side. My needs then are clear bags which were easily found - Hefty scent free 13 gallon "Clear Tall Kitchen Drawstring Bags" available on Amazon in boxes of 60. The Hefty bags go all the way to the bottom eliminating the concern of heavy items yanking the bag loose. Reviewers had expressed concern about finding bags and it nearly prevented me from buying this unit so I wanted to offer some specifics. Perhaps the concerns were for other unit sizes as the listing has several choices. As with all garbages the recessed ring that holds the bag in place (and keep it from hanging outside the perimeter of the bin) is a pain, although it DOES work fine. I don't want to dedicate 5+ minutes to "tucking in" the bag all around between the ring and the perimeter so I just skip the ring entirely and put the bag overlapping the outside perimeter and pop the top back on - as you can see in the picture. It stays in place fine and I don't notice or care about an inch of bag being visible - it's not like people otherwise would think this thing is a piece of art - it's a garbage can no matter how you dress it. Maybe if company is coming I'll get up early that day... A red LED light that flashes every 6 seconds on the top could be annoying but easily solved with a LightDims black circle over it (also on Amazon and potentially visible in the picture). Our unit had a small ding on the right side despite the solid double-cardboard box packaging it arrived in which was frustrating but not enough to warrant a return given the size of the package, my laziness, and the fact that this is likely the just the first of many dings in it's natural life. It does however highlight the thinness of the stainless material used. Does it matter? Not really, but the unit is fairly light - that might be good or bad for you. I was worried about walking by - would it pop open all the time as it has a 6" sensitivity zone? No it doesn't and we walk very close to it in our regular paths of movement. If this is a problem for your location it's easy to set on manual mode and press the open button which is just as fast opening as the sensor. I read somewhere about an odor or filter package being there, but I never found the filter or where to put it even if I did. Given it's a recycling bin for me and not regular garbage this isn't a grave concern. The 6 AA batteries (which were not included) were easy to install. I choose to put felt feet on the bottom given the location otherwise it would be hard to drag out to replace the bag since you need clearance all around to pull the lid off. With the felt feet it's easy to slide out, pop the top off, replace the bag/top and slide back. I will say that moving from an open-topped under cabinet model to one where you need to pull off (and set down) a top every time you replace the bag takes some getting used to and is not ideal. But that is certainly not a problem unique to this unit and reflects more on my laziness than the company or the product.

The motion detector trash can is well built, it’s better than the earlier version. We are very happy with it, this model is more modern and requires 2 less AA batteries. It gets a lot of use in our home, the feature of the removable liner makes it very easy to take trash out and put in a new bag.

Purchased the trash can less than 3 months ago. Worked fine for the first month although the sensor seems a bit sensitive. After 1 month was up the phantom triggers started happening. The trash can would randomly open when no one was there. It would then stay open thinking something is keeping it open. Cleaning the sensor and lid doesn’t fix the issue. Only way it seems to fix it temporarily is turning the lid off leaving it off for a while and then back on. However only works for less than an hour then the lid would randomly open again. Contacted support opened a ticket 2 weeks ago, sent video evidence and no responses or follow ups. Very disappointed with the purchase as this was our second eko trash can. The first one lasted years. This one is not as well built and feels cheap for what was paid. Avoid.

*REVIEW UPDATE* Originally I was very disappointed that standard 13 gallon trash bags didn't fit. Upon some "practice runs" while it is a very tight fit (which is probably good), I was able to get the trash bag on there. The trash can is very stylish and the motion open and close works great. What a racket, they advertise this as a 12.4 gallon trash can so us unsuspecting customers ASSUME the standard 13 gallon trash bags would fit perfectly! NOPE, they designed the insert with such odd dimensions that the 13 gallon bags don't fit which FORCES you to buy very expensive ones through the trash can company. We had an EKO trash can for 4 years that we loved until the circuit board shorted out, the old one fit the 13 gallon bags perfectly. This is slimy bad business it's worst! Shame on you EKO!

EDIT: One year later, and I ended up deciding to order another one of these after my first mishap... I'm really pleased with this product. I've only had to change the batteries one time, I get a lot of complements on it, and it continues to work very well. Honestly, don't know what happened the first time. I guess I just got unlucky, can't get it out of my head though. If that had never happened, this would be a 5 star product! Previous review: I really wanted this product to work, and right when I unboxed it and set it up, it seemed like it was going to be amazing. I put in the batteries, set it all up, and the motion detection was awesome! I was very excited. Then I put the battery cover on and it immediately stopped working. No motion detection, no opening, no nothing. I opened the battery cover to discover that it had completely short circuited and melted all the plastic through the control unit in the lid. Very unpleasant and quite scary. Maybe I would try it again... but I'm nervous to do that now... seems like it could be a fire hazard. I made sure the batteries were all properly aligned with the correct polarity, so this was definitely just a defective unit. Amazon issued me a refund, going through support with the company seemed like it would be challenging. At least the refund came quickly! Too bad... I can't recommend trying this product.

This trash can impresses with its high quality and has truly exceeded my expectations! The brushed stainless steel finish enhances the appearance of my kitchen, adding a premium touch to the space. Its automatic door opening system operates flawlessly, responding instantly and smoothly every time, without any glitches. Pros: - Large capacity allows for fewer trips to empty, ideal for a busy household. - Comes with a roll of high-quality EKO bags. - Resists fingerprints effectively, keeping the finish clean and pristine with minimal maintenance. - Exceptional build quality feels solid and durable. I highly recommend this product to anyone seeking a premium bin with a fancy motion-sensing lid!

El bote de basura es excelente, lo compré hace meses y sirve a la perfección, buena calidad y luce muy bien
