We got this diaper pail to use with our first child. While it worked well and maintained odors concealed initially. After about 6months, the room the pail was in would stink. We even bought a new one, and same thing, after only 2 months (with two kids now), stink would become apparent in the room. We ended up just tossing the diaper pail and putting diapers in the outside trash right away. A bit inconvenient, but preferable to a poop smelling house! This pail works ok for the first few months of one newborn poos-- but it will not contain poop smell once your baby starts eating solids-- it gets ultra stinky then!

Needs improvement Does nothing to stop the smell when you open the top. The front door broke within the first year. It served it's purpose but I thunk it has a loot to improve on

We have used this product for all 4 children. It does conceal odor but we find it doesn't hold many diapers. And as soon as you open to remove bag the odor does waft into the room.

Diaper pail no diaper smell I used one of these with my granddaughter. I did not have her 24/7 but I wanted something that decreased or eliminated diaper odor when she visited. This worked great. I loved it. But I am OCD with diapers. I put feces soiled diapers in individual bags before adding them to the pail. I also kept a Stick Up in the bottom of the pail. I loved the pail. I did not like the price of refill bags- but that is a small price to pay for a clean smelling room. The one I used had already been used by another family member and it was perfectly fine after 2 years of use by me. I intend to buy them for shower presents.

Great for newborns We loved this when we first started using this, but as time went on we no longer used it. We used this when my son first came home from the hospital. He was in preemie diapers at the time. It was really nice to have a place to put the diapers, especially the stinky ones. A baby also goes to the bathroom A LOT and this was more convenient than putting diapers in a trash can. However has he grew and his diapers got bigger we could not fit as many in it and it even became harder to get a diaper in it. So after about using it for a year we decided to put non-stinky diapers in the trash can in the house and the stinky ones in the trash can outside. The price of the container is not too bad and the price of the refillable bags does seem so bad at first, until you start to go through the bags faster due to bigger diapers. Also, it is not easy cleaning the inside when there is a diaper mishap. Overall I would still recommend this product to parents with a new baby and if I have another child I would buy this product again.

When I firt purchased this it worked awesome at not allowing odors in the room. I never smelled any diapers!! Even when opening it to put a new diaper in. Two years later I changed the baking soda and started using it for my baby and It no longer masks the smell. I am not sure why but it does not -the bags to buy are a bit pricey considering how often you have to replace them. The amount of diapers is for newborn size only-it will hold less diapers the larger they are.

Easy and clean! This is a great diaper pale I received this as a baby shower gift but the replacement bags are a bit high for what they are!!!

SO easy SO easy to use and helps keep the air smelling fresh and not of diapers.

Everyone says that diaper pails are a waste of money ( well at least the old school parents) but I knew I wanted it on my registry we received this one. It does the job. It conceals the unwanted scents in my sons room and is easy to dispose and use.

Helps keep odors at bay We bought one of these for our firstborn in 2011 and we initially loved it. However, we were working towards cloth diapering so as time went on, we fully transitioned to cloth and had no use for this. The product and concept is wonderful and if it would have had reusable/washable liners for cloth diapers at the time, we would have kept it and continued to use it. The only flaw that I found frustrating was the baking soda applicator. When closing the lid, it would release the baking soda too early or late and not directly into the center/bag area. It's not a big deal, and bonus points for even having a feature to help combat the dirty diaper odors! Although we never got the pail dirty, I would wipe it down from time to time for peace of mind. I'd imagine if you did get it dirty, it would wash up super easy because the design doesn't contain many conjoining pieces nor does it have many grooves and indents. I'll always recommend this one to friends who use disposables.

I am a new mom and I didn't think I needed a diaper pail because I thought a trash can would do me fine, but now I am glad that I received this at my baby shower. It has a canister that you fill with baking soda and attach to the top of the lid. Every time you close the lid it disperses baking soda into the bag and then the bag is sealed. It really cuts down the odors. i did not give this 5 stars because you really need their bags in order for this to work effectively which means more money out of your pocket. Other than that this product is something I have recommended to my friends that are new mom.

This diaper pail works. Easy to use. The replacement bags are a bit pricey but for the quality of this product, it's a good bargain.

I love this . we dont jabe the smell of fross diapee in our home because of it

We love this little pail it helps us keep things normal lol!

Impressive and effective diaper pail! I happened to catch this on clearance at Target, and it surprised me. Kept the smell down, and has decent volume. Emptying it also wasn't a hassle. But the price of the replacement bags is a bit high.... though with a little elbow grease, Glad's Febreze-scented trash bags served as alright replacements! Still would recommend this if you have the money for it.
