Just say, "open can" and the lid opens automatically, so throwing rubbish away is quick, efficient and hassle-free. You can also say, “stay open” while performing longer chores or cooking, and the lid won’t close until you say, “close can” (or it will close automatically after 10 minutes). It also has a motion sensor that opens the bin with a wave of your hand and is smart enough to adapt to you and the surrounding environment — no false triggers, no unexpected lid closures. The liner rim lifts up for easy access to the liner, then closes to grip and keep it neatly out of sight. The bin's stainless steel surface is protected by an invisible fingerprint-proof coating that protects against germs. Our Code Q custom fit liner fits this bin perfectly — no bunching or slipping for a cleaner experience. Liner refill packs store easily in this bin's liner pocket. The can's stainless steel surface is protected by an invisible silver-ion coating that resists fingerprints and germs (brushed model only).
