The EKO Econova Sensor Bin 80L has been hailed as a game changer for households, offering a blend of style, functionality, and convenience that sets it apart from traditional bins.
Design and Build Quality
The bin features a stainless steel design with a fingerprint-resistant finish, keeping it free from grubby hand marks and easy to clean. Its shape allows it to fit neatly against the wall, blending seamlessly into any kitchen decor. The lid conceals the bin liner, maintaining a tidy appearance.
Functionality and Capacity
With an 80L capacity, this bin offers impressive storage space, reducing the frequency of emptying. The tight-fitting lid helps contain odours, and the absence of an inner bucket allows for 'full use' of the capacity, as stated by EKO.
Hands-Free Operation
The standout feature is its motion sensor, which opens and closes the lid without touching any buttons. This is particularly useful when preparing food, as it prevents contamination. The lid stays open for a few seconds, with a blue LED countdown display, and manual buttons are also available for extended opening.
Priced at £119.99, the bin is not the cheapest on the market, but its quality and features justify the cost. The reviewer concludes that they cannot imagine their home without it, describing it as a 'game changer' with 'no going back'.
