I think I'd go insane if I had to wave my hand in front of the sensor 10 times before it realized it was there.uhhh, yeah, read the 312 reviews (click here) on Amazon for this product, it seems most people really like it ... 202 people rated it 5 Star while 59 rated it 4 Star.

We've had this in our kitchen for over a year now and absolutely love it! As a matter of fact, it recently broke (plastic gear snapped by accident) and we immediately ordered another from Overstock. I paid $82 included shipping If times were a little easier I'd buy this as a back up!!

***** stars from me!

FYI I found out later that www.itouchless.com sells the replacement lids for $39.99.

Our lid broke on ours 2 weeks out of warranty. iTouchless told us to buy another lid. These things are not designed well enough to last more than a year or two.

There's a touchless 13 gallon can at Sam's Club for $40 regular. Not sure what brand, but fyi for those with a membership.

We have 2 and my sister has 2 we love them also. Though the foot pedal ones may be just as effective.

yes we paid more even without rebate

ConnieIL1 said:I bought one of these at Sam's Club a couple of years ago, and still on the original batteries. I love it, though only complaint is positioning so it doesn't open all the time when someone walks by, rather than waving a hand over the top.Did you ever try slightly covering part of the sensor, such as with electrical tape, to maybe try to cut down on the sensitivity of the sensor beam?

FYI - We picked up similar item at Costco over a year ago, was $39.99 in store - we really like the convenience. Not sure if still offered in store, but they do offer online: Costco Version $59.99 shipped - Note: Now on sale for $49.99

My sister, mom and friend all have same item, all of us very pleased with it. Same price as Amazon before the subscription refund, plus you get Costco's excellent warranty, if it should break simply return it to Costco under their return policy of guaranteed satisfaction. Some may also prefer Costco's style (all brushed chrome look) compared to the black plastic top on Amazon.
