Townew T1S Review
Does the Townew T1S work as described, Yes. You press the button and it will do the dirty work; except it doesn’t walk your trash bag out to the dumpster.
Is it worth the price? I guess this is a question you have to ask yourself. Some people appreciate smart gadgets and/or don’t want to mess around closing their trash bags. I particularly like not having to touch the trash lid. I like that it opens automatically, then closes itself.
Pros of the Townew T1S:
If you don’t like having to close and seal your trash bags, or smelly trash cans, this smart trash might be a solution.
You never have to close your own trash bags. This smart trash can will close and seal your trash liner. Once sealed, it’s opens the top so you can easily remove the bag and dispose.
The lid opens when it senses motion and closes itself back up. This is great when you hands are dirty, or full. Keeping the lids closed prevent smells of disposed foods from lingering in the house.
The thermo sealing aspect is great as it keeps liquids from spilling and odors locked up.
Cons of the Townew T1S:
Size, it’s small compared to the average kitchen trash can. Considering the average kitchen trash can is between 12 and 16 gallons, this is rather on the small size.
You have to charge it. The new T1S come with a larger capacity battery which is supposed to last up to 50 days on a full charge. First charge is recommended for 10 hours.
Pricey, considering the cost of a plain cheap trash can, this smart trash can is expensive at about $129.
Costs of replacement liners
The cost for a 6-pack of Townew T1/T/L Refill Rings is approximately $35 for approximately 150 bags; I use “approximately’ size this could be more or less depending on the size of the bags when sealed by the unit. This equate to .23 cents per bag.
The cost for regular trash can liners is about .17 per gallon; I compared using Glad ForceFlex Tall Kitchen Drawstring Trash Bags – 13 Gallon Trash Bag, Fresh Clean Scent with Febreze Freshness – 110 Count.
My personal thoughts:
It’s a cool and very innovative gadget that seems well designed. I would not buy it for my house, but then I have young kids and need a larger trash can.
I think this Townew T1S, the self sealing & self changing smart trash can would be great a fancy high-end office or for my parents house. In a higher end office it a great show-off gadget. My parents don’t use much and would do good with the smaller size smart trash can, and it’s self sealing aspect.
So what are your thoughts on this smart trash can? Leave your Townew T1S review in the comments below.
These things are a bit on the pricey end, but do work pretty good. I do agree, they are a bit on the small side, specially for the price. But they seal the bags, and replaces them all without having to touch anything.
