Germs can spread in a myriad of ways, but it goes without saying that trash cans are a breeding ground for bacteria — after all, that’s what they’re made for, right?

With this in mind, several companies have designed trash cans that perform their standard functions — and then some — without the need of physical touch. These, however, usually retail for $100 and up. iTouchless is offering a more affordable option that’s also a vast customer favorite, boasting the “#1 Best Seller” label on Amazon.

This modern and 100 percent hands-free trash can is the perfect addition to any space. Loved for its slim form factor, this compact gadget packs a significant punch with its comprehensive list of features.

Helping to further reduce the spreading of germs, it is 100 percent touch-less and hands-free. To open the lid, simply motion your hands in front of the device and the lid will automatically open.

Another feature that makes this well worth the small investment is its odor-controlling capabilities. The trash can houses one natural carbon odor filter (included in the purchase) that is said to “absorb and neutralize trash odors,” ensuring that your living space is fresh and clean-smelling.

That’s not all, folks — this iTouchless model is operated by four D-size batteries or an optional AC adapter for battery-free power (both sold separately). It’s made of fingerprint-proof stainless steel and conveniently fits standard 13-gallon trash bags.

In addition to being an Amazon No. 1 best seller, this iTouchless trash can is also a Walmart customer favorite with hundreds of shoppers raving about its “no fuss” functionality.

One shopper admitted that while the gadget “spoils you,” it’s totally “worth it.”

“Have had this model for a month and love it. The opening is larger than [the] old one and it makes putting trash into the trash can much easier/less messy,” the five-star reviewer wrote, with another noting that it’s “very convenient when cooking and having to throw out raw chicken without touching the garbage.”

Shoppers also shared that the trash can is also “very quiet,” while others expressed disappointment in the fact that it does not come equipped with the power adaptor. Nonetheless, they ruled that this is not a deal-breaker when making the purchase.
