The Chinese brand Xiaomi has long surprised customers with original products with useful performance characteristics. This company was the first to automate the process of packing waste. This is how the “smart” bin appeared, the convenience of which was already appreciated by many users. Consider the features of this unique device in more detail.

About brand

Xiaomi is a Chinese company, founded in 2010. Today it is known for the release of smartphones, tablets, headphones, fitness bracelets. Besides, the company offers "smart goods" for the home. For example, many have heard of a toilet lid with heating, bidet function and lighting. Another example of a comfortable arrangement is an automated clothes dryer.

In 2014, the company introduced a whole home automation system. “Smart Home” includes alarms, surveillance cameras, night lights, a control unit for household appliances. And then came the turn to the topic of garbage. Special Townew T1 bucket decorates the house and makes life easier for its residents.

Equipment

The product is delivered in a cardboard box filled with protective elements made of foam. The kit includes a bucket, a cartridge with trash bags (28 pieces) and a charger. And also attached instruction. It is written in Chinese, but detailed illustrations make it easy to figure out how to connect a device.

The bucket can be kept permanently plugged in. If this option does not suit you, you can simply charge it periodically. The built-in battery (2000 mAh) lasts about 45 days. To fully replenish the charge, it takes 10 hours. During recharging works internal illumination. When the process ends, it turns off.

Specifications

The model is called Xiaomi Townew T1 Smart Trash. The bucket is made of plastic, has a rectangular shape with rounded edges. The dimensions of the device are 40.2x28x24 cm. At the same time, it is worth considering that there should be at least 70 cm free space above the bucket. Otherwise, the lid cannot fully open. Therefore, if you plan to put a bucket under the sink, make sure that there is enough space.

The container is sealed. Its volume is 15.5 liters. The size can be called average, but it is quite enough for domestic use.

The bucket is made in a minimalist modern design. The manufacturer offers models in two colors: white and black. Both options are matte.

And also there are two specifications. The first one has rubberized legs, a pallet (in case of leakage) and 3 LEDs on the inside surface of the cover. The second option is cheaper. Pallet and legs are not here, but there are 6 LEDs.

Principle of operation

When a person comes to the bucket and brings a hand to it, a motion sensor is triggered. The lid opens. This allows you to throw trash inside. When the hand is removed, the sensor tracks it. The device is closing.

Automation works only when moving over the lid (sensor sensitivity - 30-35 cm). And if, for example, you are used to throwing crumpled paper from a distance into the basket, this number will not work here. We'll have to go to the device.

In the process of opening / closing the lid there is a slight noise. According to users, it is quiet and completely non-irritating. It is worth noting that if there is something on the path of the lid that prevents the bucket from opening completely, the process automatically stops. Therefore, to place the tank in a small locker and throw garbage in a half-open container will not work.

When filling the bucket, you should activate the automatic packing of the package. To do this, click on the button. The top of the device folds down. A beep sounds. Hermetically sealed package can be reached. Then the container automatically closes. There is a change of bag.

After removing the bag, the fan is activated. With it, blown new package. Due to vacuum polyethylene is evenly distributed on the walls of the container.

Office bucket Townew T1 by using two buttons. The one on the back includes a device. The one on the front of the container is programmed for several options:

  • one press - opening the lid and disabling automation, including the motion sensor (this mode allows you to change the cartridge);
  • press again to close the lid and turn on the sensor;
  • long hold (4 seconds) - change trash bag.

    The cartridge with replaceable bags is installed on the cover from the inside. Garbage can be packaged in two ways.

    1. Normally, the package is sealed inside the container. After the procedure, the lid opens, a beep sounds.
    2. If the bag is full, the top part rises and seizes all the garbage. Only after this is the packaging open.

    Benefits

    Dignity buckets Townew T1 are obvious:

    • the device is easy to use (everyone can handle the connection and the principle of operation);
    • contact with garbage is eliminated, there is no need to manually tie a package, change it to a new one (everything happens in automatic mode);
    • unpleasant odors do not go beyond the capacity of the tank, which allows you to put a bucket in any room;
    • stylish design allows you to place the bucket even in a prominent place;
    • there is a child lock that does not allow the garbage can to turn into a toy;
    • LED backlighting is a useful feature;
    • at desire the bucket can be used in the manual mode.

    The disadvantages include only the high cost of the “smart” bucket. But numerous advantages fully justify the pricing policy of the company.

    Reviews

    The device seemed interesting and useful to many customers. Users note that the operation of the bucket is simple and quite pleasant. And the inclusion and installation of cartridges does not cause any difficulties. At the same time a person needs only to take out the garbage, the aggregate does the rest himself.

    People like the tightness of the container and its design. The versatility of the form and color design allows you to harmoniously fit the Townew T1 into any kitchen or even room interior. Some have adapted a bucket for paper debris, candy wrappers from sweets, putting it next to the desk.

    The quality of products does not cause complaints. There are no false positives of the motion sensor, the process of sealing the bags always goes well. The appearance of the tank is almost perfect - everything is done carefully, if you do not find fault with the little things.

    Users report that one cartridge with bags is enough for about a month. Brand packages can be called durable, but they do not have handles for carrying, which some attribute to flaws. In addition, the cost of consumables makes you think about the advisability of replacing an ordinary bucket with a “smart” technology miracle.

    Today Townew T1 can be purchased for about 5000 rubles. Cartridges are sold in sets of 6 pieces. The approximate price of such a set is about 2000 rubles. If you calculate the price of one bag and compare it with ordinary dense packages, you get a 10-fold excess. Nevertheless, is it worth paying for convenience, everyone decides for himself.
