It was the right size, 13 gal. It looks great. It's easy to clean. Spray or wipe any smudges and it looks shiny new. There are no indentations or folds where dirt can collect making it hard to clean. A 13 gal. trash bag fits well and the can has a removable holder which fits around the rim sealing the space between the bag and can so that nothing can fall between the bag and can which keeps the interior of the can just as clean as the day you set it up. The top which contains the lid and mechanics for the automatic lid opener is removable. It houses 4 C cell batteries (not included) easily replaceable. This is the perfect can for those who don't like touching the lid when discarding garbage. Two motion sensors will automatically open the lid as you bring the garbage near and will close automatically when you leave. It has a tiny on/off switch in the back to turn off the power saving the batteries when you don't intend to use the can for awhile. The lid fits well confining smells to the inside of the can. The can is very light but heavy enough to stay in place with a plastic bottom which won't scratch the floor. What else do you look for in the perfect can? The price for such a can is reasonable too It would be super reasonable if shipping was included but it isn't and it's shipped from China. It also takes a few days for delivery which is understandable considering its place of origin. I bought two, one for garbage and the other for recyclables. They look great no matter where you place them.
