  • 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 4 роки тому +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

      That's what I was thinking too. If it is a UV-C light source (the sanitizing spectrum of UV) then leaving the light on while the lid is open is a very bad design. UV-C exposure can be very damaging to exposed skin and to the eyes. Not to mention all the ozone it produces as well.

      @@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.
      If you still have questions just do a web search for "ultraviolet germicidal irradiation".

      thats because these arent actually bags, its a long tube of material that creates bags from the seal, when the heat seals the bag, the other side of the seal becomes the bottom of the next bag..... however thats even more ridiculous for the price since a long tube of material is way cheaper to make than actual individual bags :/

    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.

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.

    As a professional cleaner who has cleaned in hundreds of peoples homes, I can say 100% that these garbage cans are NOT worth $5, not even close to the humongous price tag. 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 figured he couldn't open it because the sensor said it was so far up. well you are right. it's about 8 inches. and my dog figure out if he just leans over the top it opens. He pulled the ring out and and knocked it over and well diapers and wet wipes all over the floor. I replaced the bag ring thinking he wouldn't be able to do that again. The dog is smarter than me! again pulled out the ring and though there was nothing in the bag all the bag material was pulled down from the ring though it's still connected to the ring, I can't figure out how to stuff it back inside. haven't heard from the company either. the replacement bag ring costs about 25$ so now unless I buy another ring..its now just an ordinary trash can
