This sensor bin is identical to the other VonHaus bin we reviewed above; it’s just the colour that is different. We have an electric bin for every kitchen and utility room from the leading brands, including the latest easy-sorting bins to help you manage your recycling. The sensors will also keep the lid closed when there’s no one around, so you don’t have to worry about pesky bugs or animals getting into your bin.

As you approach 40cm of the bin, the infrared sensor will detect movement and raise the bin lid, ready to accept your disposal items.There’s an on/off switch so you can turn the unit into manual mode, allowing the bin lid to remain permanently open should you wish.

So if you’re looking for a hygienic solution for waste disposal in your home or office environment, take a look at the sensor bin features below to find one that suits your needs.

There’s no inner bucket, so your sensor bin liner just attaches to the retainer ring within the body. A manual override button also features on the slim soft-close lid, which allows you to open when necessary and even comes with 3 free lemon scented bin liners. As with the other bins we’ve looked at, this model uses an infrared sensor to detect movement at around 30cm away. Using infrared technology which senses your hand from around 15cm away, this bin will add a little glamour to your kitchen!
