About this product
This sensor bin gives you hands-free waste disposal that's clean and simple. Just wave your hand over it and the lid opens automatically, so you're not touching anything when you're chucking stuff away. It's got a 42l capacity, which is great for busy kitchens, and the sensor closes the lid after 5 seconds, keeping things tidy and odours locked in. The square shape means it fits neatly against walls or in corners without wasting space.
It's made from polished metal so it's easy to wipe down and keeps looking smart. The lid lifts off when you need to empty it, and it runs on 4 AA batteries, so no cables trailing about. There's a one-year guarantee included, and you can register for an extended warranty if you like. It's the kind of bin that just works quietly in the background, keeping your kitchen hygienic without any fuss.

Customers Say
The Tower 42L Sensor Bin is stylish, hands-free, and a good size for small kitchens. Sensor is convenient but can be temperamental and overly sensitive. Some find the bin flimsy with no inner liner and battery cover issues.

Literally rubbish
Literally rubbish! Doesn’t work and is too small. If I could I would rate it zero stars.

Looks good but a poor design.
The bin is a good size and looks good in the kitchen. The opening mechanism is a bit noisy compared with others that we have used. The sensor is on the front (facing outwards) and had I known this prior to purchasing I would not have bought this model. The problem is that anyone walking past the bin can trigger the sensor - especially children. The better ones have sensors on the top so that they only open when you wave your hand above them.

It’s alright but not fantastic
It’s ok. The bin was slightly out of shape & the sensor is temperamental. But it is a nice size for us.

Great!
I love not having to touch the bin at all. Well worth the money. Neat in appearance. The only thing I dont like is the fitting of the lid could be tighter onto the body of the bin.

Tower 42 Litre Sensor
Not impressed at all, there is no way this is 42l it is tiny. The rolled metal lip at the top makes pulling the bags out difficult. The sensor is ok but closes very quickly when you are trying to scrap plates off etc.

Hi Jordan24

Thanks for using Q&A.
Sensor is quite a specific area, jusr below lid directly in front. I've found this good as my previous one kept opening when anything was near it.. If it still doesnt work it's a faulty bin.
Hi Soph,
The motion sensor is at the top front.
Thank you for using Q and A.
This one should be fine. Mine doesn't activate if you pass your hand above, it has to be at the top front.
The sensor is central just below the lip. In order for the lid not to keep opening when being passed, I have had to place it so sensor faces an appliance. Under a breakfast bar you most likely have to place it side on or it will keep opening as before
