Works perfectly, now my cats flush the toilet! Jan 15, 2009
By Bruce A. Ishikawa I have cats that are trained to use the human toilet. The problem was they did not flush. I found this gizmo, installed it, calibrated it to detect the cats and now the toilet flushes when they jump off. I had to fool around a little bit to adjust it so they didn't set it off by walking by, but that was easy and now everything is great!
Updated July 8, 2010: Calibration is easy, it's all in the manual. Just need a little patience and a lot of water for some trial and error.
Human users are not as easy to train, they slam the thing down with the normal amount of pressure that you need to work a mechanical flusher, not the light touch this electronic switch requires for manual operation. One product improvement would be to mount it somewhere else on the toilet, not on the flush handle. Still working well 18 months later. I still haven't changed the batteries!

Amazing Jun 05, 2009
By Matt Fedeli June 5, 2009: This is by far one of the greatest products to come home! Just like the commercial ones you see in the airports only instead of a hole in the wall it looks like an actual flush handle. The great thing about this product is that you still can flush by pressing down the handle for those needed courtesy flushes. The sensor is adjustable so that you can move the sensor to look more at the user or look away. That way, you don't walk by it and it flushes. Everything that you need is included, minus "C" batteries, all you need is a standard toilet. They claim to flush 23,000 times on the 4 "C" batteries you need before changing, We'll have to see.
Oh, and don't worry about water getting in, its all sealed with rubber seals.
UPDATE: MARCH 4, 2010 Same batteries and still flushing!
UPDATE: March 22, 2011 Same batteries and still flushing!
UPDATE: May 2011 The motor struggles to raise the flapper, I have decided to remove it after replacing the batteries. Could have been that my water is heavy in metals and that it may have corroded something. I had left the included wrench in the tank so that I wouldn't use it, and it had rusted away thanks to my well water.

Using this for my toilet trained cat Dec 10, 2009
By Megan M. Smith I purchased this auto flusher so I wouldn't have to flush the toilet for my toilet trained cat. It was easy to install, but a little tricky to adjust so it would work for a cat, but it does! I wish the instructions were a little more clear on how to make adjustments, but I was able to figure it out. All in all it works great for what I purchased it for, which I know is not what the product was designed for. I will be purchasing another one of these for my second bathroom for the cat shortly.
This product will allow me to take a vacation and not have to have someone visit my house twice a day to flush the toilet for the cat. I'm very pleased with it!

Read the last sentence! Sep 07, 2008
By trej24
"Nurse/Mom of 5"
In the advertisement the last sentence states "there will be a restocking fee." The reason that this statement mostlikely appears in their advertisement is because they know that it will be returned. I purchased TWO units at the same time; and neither unit worked appropriately. Even after every troubleshooting attempt was made....for both units....the product does not work appropriately. What I mean by appropriately is: Yes, this unit is very easy to assemble, the directions are clear cut and very easy, BUT the ir (infrared eye) within the handle has a mind of it's own. It may flush, but NOT after use without manually flushing the unit....Although, it flushes whenever it feels like it,... such as, in the middle of the night when everybody is asleep, and nobody is around. It's like having an entity in the house. Needless to say, both of these units will be returned.....The company undoubtedly has had this problem with previous purchased units for them to add the disclaimer of a "restocking fee." These units do not work appropriately, and the company should recall all of them, and repair the problems. Please purchase with caution.
God bless!

Works...but too good maybe Jun 12, 2009
By K. Sartain This thing works as expected. However, if the toilet is the first thing you walk by when entering the bathroom where it's installed, it could trigger a false flush. Otherwise it's a great idea.
