  • Today I'm taking a look at the Townew "automatic" trash can which can seal and install new bags automatically. Is it worth the hefty price tag?

      @ikmnification5737 Před 4 lety +22

      I don't think it technically uses trash bags, seems that when it seals the bag, it creates a new "bag" from the seal. So what you're buying is one long roll of a plastic cylinder that the device heat seals to make bags, this is why his first bag (of air) is much smaller than his full bag (and then the final speed test bag is between the two in size).

    • @jaysecure

      @@nowonmetube UV-C is energetic enough that it is capable of destroying the DNA and nucleic acids in cells and microorganisms. Since a lot of odors, especially in garbage, are caused by molds and bacteria breaking things down, killing or disrupting those microorganisms reduces the smell.
      The danger is that it has the same damaging effect on human cells and DNA. It's similar to UV-B (the kind that causes sunburns and skin cancers) but is much more energetic and so is capable of doing a lot more damage at a much faster rate. Most commercial applications of UV-C try to contain the light with enclosures or otherwise avoid exposure to humans and animals.
      The sun also produces massive amounts of UV-C but fortunately most of it is blocked by the upper atmosphere.

    I think it might be useful to put on the counter and put food scraps and vegetable bits in bc you can hold a cutting board and a knife while the trash can opens itself, though the timer is a bit short. And the bags are sealed so bugs won't get in after you take it out.

    We had one of these automatic lid opening trash cans as well and what we found was that the sound of the lid opening and closing was very annoying after a while and the lid never stayed open long enough to put extra trash in. Ours did not automatically seal the bag or dispense a new bag but in my opinion just a foot styled opening lid one is much better.

    I can see this being ideal for someone who is handicapped. I got a Simple Human motion/voice 12 gal., wide top can. It opens when you say"open can" and "close can". Also motion senses -- great when my hands are full with anything messy. It holds a lot, and is a metal, solid build. It doesn't seal the bags, but I LOVE the convenience. It was pricy $199.00, but a year later it's still going strong.

    The rings are almost a dollar per bag (80 cents) for the regular ones and just over a dollar per bag ($1.2) with the biodegradable ones. $119.95 for the trash can itself. You'd have to seal and throw away 120 bags before you're down to having payed $1/ used trash bag, but by that point you've also spent roughly $100 - $150 on the bags themselves. Which also is what you'd be stuck with paying for bags yearly if you filled up 1 bag every 3 days or so.

Most of the time it detects motion when you walk by and stays open so then it smells. So it stays open for no reason most of the time, useless. And $120 isn't even expensive for these kinds of cans, here in Canada at Bed Bath and Beyond, there's multiple over $150 or even $200

    I can understand the use on this. However I think they should have a sensor on the side facing down so you can just step in front of it and have it open. Also, I would much prefer no lid so I can just toss and go but people with kids might have issues. Maybe a silicone seal on the lids to help keep in odors. As for the charing indicator, I can guess that's on the inside so when you use it you see those lights that remind you when to charge it. Though I feel like a constant power supply would be better for some cases. This would be perfect for diapers and such though. Auto seals the bag and everything. It would be cool if it had a front panel where it could push/eject the bag before it auto changed the bag. So you could just walk up and see the bag and grab it and use the trash can in one shot.
