Simplehuman Butterfly sensor can | Test and reviews - European Consumers Choice - Product Reviews and Tests

I’ve got good sense: innovation only makes sense if it’s in sync with your needs. That’s why our butterfly sensor trash can has multi-sense™. It reacts to your behavior, so it won’t open unexpectedly or close before you’ve finished your task – very sensible. Don’t you wish you refrigerator was this smart?

• multi-sense: Our sensor adapts to your tasks. It’s touch-free technology that’s in sync with your needs
• ready mode: The trigger zone is a focused space directly above the lid — easy to reach, but precise enough to avoid false triggers
• task mode: Once the lid is open, the trigger zone extends to become more sensitive to activity, so the lid won’t close before you’re finished.
• stay-open mode: After 3 seconds of continued activity, the lid automatically opens wider and switches to a 30-second stay-open mode — great for longer chores
• butterfly lid: split doors open from the center for maximum clearance under low countertops
• robust internal hinge: the strong, die-cast steel hinge is built to last, but still sleek enough to place the can right against the wall
• robust mechanism: overstuff the can, slam the lid down, or even stop it with your hand. The patent-pending clutch system instantly disengages the motor to prevent damage.
• energy efficient: lasts up to 1 year with 6 high-quality alkaline C batteries, (not included) or use with optional simplehuman power adapter
• easy access battery compartment: conveniently located on the back of the can. No fumbling under the lid when you need to change the batteries
• odorsorb™ filters: natural charcoal filter is integrated into the lid to neutralize odors without harmful chemicals
• hide excess bag: bag tuck® opening opening tucks away excess bag so it stays neatly out of sight
• easy moving: nylon discs under the can make it easy to slide and gentle on floors
• fingerprint-proof stainless steel. More info
