You could fill them with those dad jokes for a start :)
Tough crowd today…

Do you know if you can use ordinary bin bags in these ?
I think you need the chrome bin bags for them
Like from out of the wine casks?
Precisely, goon bags
Do you know if you can use ordinary bin bags in these ?
Yes you can, large size. Bit of a trick to get them right as the internal bin has a handle and putting it back in the surround with the bag means using your fingers to keep it over the rim, as it's a tight fit. Once you work it out it's easy.
Plus it takes 4 AA batteries. If you use rechargeable they go for 4-6 months before needing a recharge. Occasionally the mechanism hits the fritz and there is an on/off button to reset it, or means it's time to charge the batteries.
Thanks OP
Weren't there previously reports that the sensors aren't great? Could be an older model but I'd like to hear from someone that has these please
Had one for a couple of years and sensor has worked fine. Occasionally hit the reset but good to go again. Bought one due to a pushy dog as the bin is stable, and didn't like the pedal bins.
Had one for 12 months and it broke due to my 5 year old constantly forcing the mechanism. Other sensor bins out there are stupidly priced for what they are, so I'd say this is definitely worth a shot
What happens when the sensor/motor dies? Paperweight on top?
You can still open the lid manually. I've had a couple of these (though not for 2-3 years so maybe they got better?) and they all eventually stop working.
Don't need, but bought 2.
No stock in any store
It says that, but they had one at my local (Qld)
Got one of these sensors bin but different brand and size. It isn’t a must compare to pedal bin, but I don’t like to touch the bin (feet or hand), so this kind of sensor bin a little bit more convenient for me.
They're slowly phasing out the House & Home brand so keep an eye out over the next few months for some more discounts.
Wish it had wifi or BT
I’ve just got it, it says can’t use rechargeable battery, also it is extremely hard to fit in battery for one side, I am not sure if the bin I got is faulty? Does anyone have similar experience? I almost feel like I will break the small piece plastic if I forces the battery to fit in.
Rechargeable work fine. Yes the battery fit is tight and not ideal, you do have to use a bit of force and small flat head screwdriver helps to remove them.
Thanks for your reply
Welcome.
What would I do with 30 of them?
