Instructions were easy to follow and I didn't feel rushed. The initial iPhone cable used to check if the device powered on was a bit faulty causing me having to reset the phone's position twice.

Thanks a ton for the awesome review! It’s great to know ecoATM made recycling your phone fast, easy, and maybe even a little fun.
Wonderful to Recycle But Takes A Lot of Time
The process of putting my phone into the recycling unit took ages. I believe the process took 1 full hour for recycling 2 phones. In addition to that, finding a working kiosk was difficult, let alone one that would accept my iPad that I was attempting to recycle. This was already the third location I had visited and ultimately gave up on recycling that one and brought it home with me.

We appreciate you sharing your experience. We're sorry the payout wasn't what you expected. Our offers are based on the device’s model and its internal and external condition, and we always aim to keep our pricing fair and transparent.
It’s the way to go
The transaction went fine but, due to the bank of windows it was next to, it was very difficult to see the screen.
