Is there any way for the lid to be kept open if you're going to be using it a lot & don't want to step on the pedal each & every time?

Despite other respondent's answer, the lid on mine will not stay open, whether using your hand or the pedal. It automatically closes either way.

Don't purchase, the purpose of the lid is for closing...I love this feature..... perhaps you need to purchase a trash can with no lid....

Tes, you can lift lid w/ hand (not engaging the pedal system) and it stays open.

There is a sliding cover to the 2 battery compartments. I don't have mine in front of me, but you should be able to figure out which way to slide it open.

You can pop the lid off but if you do it a lot it will loosen and not be as secure.

I tried to open and close the lid when it is empty. I had to use booth of my thumbs to push it open. I am not sure what is the best solution other than a different design.

Yes, just drill a hole through the lid. There's no provision for locking the rotation, but it hasn't been an issue for me.

I haven't had any issues with the lid coming open. The Velcro is pretty strong and I currently have my bike hanging from my ceiling upside down and the lid hasn't ever opened up even with items in the bag.

Can't help you friend. The instruction that came with mine , stated the lid is to remain open during operation. Sorry.

Yes, you can. You just lift the lid at the top of the stroke with the pedal depressed fully, and it clicks into an open mode. The lid is then 90 degrees to the floor.

Hyee Kim, I am not sure about that but it seems that lid has no permanent connection with the box. It's better to asked the constructor.thanks

Yes. There is a little red switch on the inside that will keep the lid open.

Lid must be down step firmly on peddle. Hope this helps I have three no problems.

The lid stays open slightly and requires you to fool the lid closure switch, I used a small piece of paper folded to wedged into to hole

Yes, there is a locking mechanism for the lid to remain open. This facilitates removing and changing the bag.

Probably ... I actually put the sticker on the inside of the lid rather than the seat to encourage it all...... being closed after everyone uses. Knaw what i mean!

It is my understanding locking the lid is an option. It's good for carrying the pot to another location.

I have not had trouble. Others have said press real hard on lid, maybe with foot pressure and it should open

Hi Joseph you could leave the pedals on but I think it will damage the bag or maybe the spokes if the wheels are close to them. I would remove them!
