It features touch-free opening so you can dispose of household waste hygienically with one swift hand motion and includes a soft-close function to minimise noise disruption which closes itself after a few seconds of inactivity. Alternatively, there is a power switch if you want to open and close the lid manually. The bin is constructed from a robust yet stylish body that will ensure long-lasting durability. It has a large 60L capacity, meaning it can hold all of your everyday household waste so you can spend less time emptying the bin. This sleek sensor bin from Tower puts 60-litres of space into its compact rectangular form. Suitable for busier family homes yet still small enough to sit comfortably in smaller kitchens, it comes in a sleek grey colourway with metallic silver highlights. The lid takes advantage of a clever sensor that automatically opens with one swift hand motion. This means you don’t have to fumble trying to open it when your hands are full – emptying plates, for example – while also reducing the risk of being exposed to harmful bacteria. After a few seconds of inactivity, the soft-close mechanism kicks in to shut it again while minimising noise disruption. An On/Off button allows you full control over the bin’s operation, so it’s ideal for homes with nosy toddlers or larger pets, as well as those times where you need to keep it open for longer.
