5 out of 5 stars Functional, stylish and very hygenic   July 13, 2007

I got the model advertised, not the dual control model the other reviewer has. I must say its great, large 50litre capacity with Brabantia's own bags or just use the common or garden black bin bags. Its a smart silver/chrome finish so fits in decor wise with most kitchens. The big plus for me is the fact you only ever have to touch the bin when removing the bag. I've had a variety of cheaper pedal operated and push top bins but none were as 'clean' as this. Buy this and you will be happy even if it seems a bit excessive price wise for a bin! It is guaranteed for 5years too so on the whole represents good value. I've probably spent more over five years on cheaper bins and regretted there flimsy design!


2 out of 5 stars Very good when working - poor customer service when it fails.   December 9, 2007

I've had this bin 3 months now.
The electronic lid is very handy and functions well when working. The open and close reponse time is good.
It's the cleanist bin I've ever owned you only need to touch the bin to replace the bag.

I cook at home a lot and found myself replacing the batteries on a weekly basis.

After two months the lid mechnism began to fail - It frequently started to make a whining sound and failed to open, or close for that matter when helped open.

I used the Brabantia website service pages to request a warenty replacment (they send you a paid post bag and you return the faulty lid first) - Heard nothing. I called customer service a week latter (they know nothing of my web based request), They send my a 2nd Class unsigned for postal sticker a few days latter (no bag no customer number or returns number!) I buy a large Jiffy bag and posted it back to them including a letter detailing the problem again and including my address.

That was nearly three weeks ago - I've not recived a replacment lid or any contact from Branbantia!

I'll now have to take time out my work day again to contact their customer service - I dubt I'll have a replacment lid before Christmas! The bin is lidless and smelly!

So in closing great when it works - Terrible customer service from Branbantia when it does not!
