I really love this bin.
I had a sensor bin previously (Tower) and I liked it but the build quality was poor and the battery compartment cover kept falling off, releasing the batteries into the bin bag (not good if full). I spent a long time browsing for better products and the best alternative (that wasn’t a generic reproduction of the Tower bin) was this product. I wondered if it was worth spending twice as much… I now know.
There was a minor hiccup with my order but this was rectified very quickly and efficiently via the customer service team (thank you Lara).
I bought this particular model because the two sides of the cover leave clearance to fit under my kitchen counter when open. When I installed the bin, I noted that I had slightly underestimated the sensor clearance which kept the bin open. This was easily rectified with a piece of dark card placed on the underside of the counter (the alternative, in my experience, would be to put a small dot of permanent marker over the sensors to reduce their gain – but don’t do that, it’ll invalidate your warranty!)
I LOVE this bin. It’s not as cheap as inferior sensor bins but the build quality of this bin is clearly very much more robust and it looks as though EKO have put a good deal of thought into the design and construction of this bin.
PROS: Exellent build quality, great dimensions, lots of variations of models, very quiet, robust, plenty of reasonably priced accessories but doesn’t require them.
CONS: A bit more pricey – but it would have been a false economy to replace my Tower/generic bin, in my opinion, annually. Sensor not adjustable on lid but there are workarounds which I can forgive.
Overall, am I glad that I bought this bin? YES

I can only underline what the other 5-star reviews have said – it’s a fantastic bin. Having bought the Himalaya for the kitchen and been really pleased with it, I decided to buy this one for the bathroom and the rest of upstairs – its hungry jaws are often in action and it looks extremely stylish! Highly recommended.
