Pros and cons
Pros
- Three waste streams fit within one unit, which can reduce the need to position separate bins around the kitchen.
- Removable buckets and a pull-out lower compartment make sorting and liner changes more accessible.
- A stay-open mode may suit longer food-preparation or clean-up tasks.
Cons
- At 11 Kilograms, the listed weight is substantial for a bin that may need to be moved for cleaning.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing gives a three-compartment 30L + 15L + 15L layout, while some detail fields only confirm three openings and 60L total capacity. Sensor detection is described as both 30 cm and 12 inches, and the listed battery-life claim is not tied to a stated usage pattern. Confirm the selected listing’s configuration and operating details if these distinctions matter.

Customer feedback describes the bin as easy to use, appropriately sized and appealing in matte black, with positive comments about its overall quality and function. Some customers like the option to keep the lid open, while others find lid operation inconvenient. That mixed response matters if you expect frequent extended access during meal preparation. The listing’s three removable compartments support sorting, but customer comments should not be taken as confirmation of the stated capacity layout or sensor specifications.
Positive themes
- Customers describe the product as good quality and functional.
- Feedback praises its size, appearance, cleanliness and ease of use.
- Customers appreciate that the compartments can be lifted out.
Mixed feedback
- Feedback on lid operation is mixed, including differing views of the stay-open option.
Frequently asked questions
How is the 60L capacity divided?
The feature description specifies 30L + 15L + 15L across three compartments. Some detail fields state only three openings and 60L total, so check the chosen listing if the individual capacities are important.
Does the lid stay open?
The listing says pressing the button can keep the lid open for up to 20 minutes. It also claims automatic closing after 5 seconds during normal operation.
Are batteries included?
The listing states that the sensor uses 4 AA batteries, but it does not say whether batteries are included.
How long is the claimed battery life?
The listing claims up to 8 months, without specifying a usage pattern. Treat this as a listing estimate rather than a guaranteed interval.
