About the Touchless Trashcan
The 13-gallon, brushed stainless steel Touchless Trashcan is a patented product that’s already widely recognized in Europe. Thousands have been sold on infomercials, QVC, and HSN home shopping channels. It also won the 2002 Invention Show, New Household Product Award. It is a 100 percent hands-free operated, wireless, lidded waste disposal system. The built-in Artificial Intelligent (AI) Smart-Chip knows when you need to open trash can, and it does all the openings and closings for you so you don’t have to touch or step on anything.
How it Works
The Touchless Trashcan uses patented, invisible, and harmless infrared technology. Simply place your hand or debris about six inches away from the infrared sensor near the lid. It will open instantly when you approach and will close automatically in three seconds after debris has been released and your hand moves away. The lid will remain open if debris or your hand is within the 6-inch range of the infrared sensor. There are two buttons on the front to open and close the lid manually, and a easy to reach on/off switch on the back of the trashcan.
The Benefits of the Touchless Trashcan
This trashcan creates a germ free, odor free, automated environment. It keeps your hands clean while you are cooking or playing with your children. It also helps prevent contamination, which reduces the threat of certain illnesses and infections. Because the trashcan turns an ordinary chore into something fun, your kids will have fun throwing the trash away for you. In addition, the Touchless Trashcan outlasts most of the step-on and hand-touch cans. If you can’t touch it, you can’t break it! These cans have been opened 100,000 times in laboratory tests, and they’re still going strong. In fact, if you open your can 20 times a day, it can last over 10 years. This could actually be the last trashcan you ever buy, which will save you money, mess, and time.
Technology and Eco-Friendly Features
Professionals recognize Touchless Trashcan as the next generation of waste receptacles. Its non-touch hygienic features meet the immediate needs in healthcare facilities and elderly homes. The new SilenX technology makes the closing of the lid even quieter while the “eagle eye” water-resistant sensor features reliable point-n-lock beam technology. In addition, the special energy saving design of Touchless Trashcan enables its four “D” size heavy duty batteries to support up to 10,000 consecutive openings and closings, or more than one year of use in non-frequent circumstances. There’s also never a “fallen bag” problem with the Touchless Trashcan. The specially designed garbage bag retainer ring tightly holds the edges of the bag to prevent it from falling, and it seals the odors inside. You can use regular plastic garbage bags or even grocery bags, so there’s no need to buy special garbage bags which many high-end garbage cans require.
The Touchless Trashcan will improve the look of your kitchen, giving it an ultra-modern look and feel. It comes with one year limited manufacturer’s warranty and a 60-day unconditional money back guarantee.

Customer Review: A delight while it worked. And then, after a month
This product was a delight while it worked. Even my two teenage sons, who rarely compliment anything, independently said “I love this garbage can.” Alas, it broke after a month–the lid stopped opening. Fresh batteries did not help. It simply stopped opening, even when I pressed the manual open button. It’s too bad–it helped keep the kitchen clean, the garbage lid itself stayed clean, and it was tall enough that the dog couldn’t activate the sensor. But, in the end, it gave only a month of utility before it joined the ranks of yet another appliance that had to be returned.
Customer Review: Works fine for me
So far the experience with this trash can has been great, don’t have any complaints, other than sometimes I walk to close to it. Which I knew could be a problem when I bought it because of where it would go, a small price to pay compared to the filth that was on my old trash can lid. So, so far so good.

Since 1998, SIGG has concentrated on its core business: drinking bottles that deliver ultimate customer benefit.

Customer Review: Toddler Loves It
My toddler really like this bottle. She can drink from it with ease. I feel better knowing it’s a safer material. I wish it was spill proof but the little twist lock on the spout seems to do the trick when she takes off with the bottle.
Customer Review: Super cute, but a little unrealistic.
I ordered this bottle for my 1 year old daughter. I wanted something that was not made out of the unsafe plastic, which it is. The drinking spout was too hard for her to open, but if I left it open for her, it was NOT leak-proof at all. So, I ended up ordering myself a Sigg bottle with a different spout (that I switched with hers) that was leak-proof & only had to be pushed in a little with the mouth to drink, which she can do just fine. Another thing is that I did not realize that it would dent so easily when dropped. If you have kids, you know that they drop things A LOT! So this bottle is pretty dented up by now, but still very usable anyway. It is a good bottle for a little older kids though.

Customer Review: Wishbone: Legend of Sleepy Hollow
Wishbone is a jack russell terrier who imagines himself as different characters in literature. In this story, he imagines himself as the schoolteacher Ichabod Crane. Each of the wishbone stories has two parts. In one part wishbone daydreams about being a character in literature, and in the other part his owner, Joe Talbot goes thru adventures of his own with his friends, and of course, Wishbone. This is another of my favorites. It defintely teaches kids about literature, and of course, having a cute little dog helps.
Customer Review: wishbone is the best show ever and forever!!!
wishbone is great why didn’t they keep the show on longer the shows in the 90’s treated kids like they were smarter but now it’s almost like the new kids shows are trying to make a whole new generation stupid because they dance and sing about people being “friends”
