what parents are saying
Have the older version. Still smells but I have nothing to compare it to. Easy to dispose diaper and holds quite a few diapers. Easy to handle once you understand how it works (took me a while). (Jun 21, 2017)

I kind of got this pail by accident and I'm so thankful! We now have 2. Keeps odors to a minimum without special bags. Jan 25, 2021

This does NOT keep the smell in whatsoever! Nov 22, 2019

We've used this for six years and three kids, and it's holding up great! You can use any garbage bag (no expensive specialty liners), and it REALLY keeps the stink in the can and out of your home! Aug 05, 2019

We were given the diaper champ from a friend who recently potty-trained her little one. While the design of it is really nice and I like that you don’t have to use special bags, we rarely use it. Jul 10, 2019

There is no way I would have stuck with buying bags for a competitor. This was the perfect alternative. I've used it through 4 kids already. It does get tricky when it's too full so gotta stay on top. Mar 21, 2019

This is a nice idea, I thought it was a good design until we start to put it to use. It doesn't contain the smell, the room still smells like poopie diapers. Save your money and buy something else. Mar 13, 2019

Does the job and doesn't require special bags. We haven't had a smell issue yet, but wish it was a little taller so we didn't have to stoop down to use it and it didn't fill up so fast. Feb 21, 2019

I love that it can use regular trash bags. It works great, but every time I open it to put another diaper in the stench from inside comes out. Also, it’s nearly impossible to get the stench out. Jul 16, 2018
- Hollie P.

Used this at home and at job at daycare. I love that I can just move the handle, place the diaper in opening and close it, dropping diaper into trash can. Also covers the smell really well. May 21, 2018

We have two of these for different rooms. They hold in oder well and you can use your own bags! Feb 12, 2018

Broke rather quickly and required replacement by the company. So far keeps odor of contents hidden, but we have not started solids yet. Love that I don't need to by expensive refills though! Aug 22, 2017

SO happy I don't have to buy separate liners for this! Jun 03, 2017

Great because you can use a standard garbage bag, but it still gets an odor over time even using an air freshener. May 09, 2017
- Lindsey T.

Love that this takes any garbage bags. It holds a lot, which is a plus, but after you open & close it to put a diaper in, you still smell dirty diapers. We keep it in the bathroom rather than nursery. Jan 04, 2017

When you put a new diaper in, it propels the dirty diaper smell into the room. Doesn't hold many diapers, hard to tell when it needs to be emptied.l, wipes get stuck in the top when thrown away. Jun 26, 2016

Slightly over complicated for me & A little too fun for toddlers to put toys in so I had to stop using it. Apr 20, 2016

The best! Sometimes the diapers get stuck but you can hardly smell anything. Nov 02, 2014

This is the best diaper pail hands down. No expensive bags--just put in your regular garbage bags. Does a great job of eliminating odors. Plus you can use it with one hand! Oct 08, 2014

Works pretty well and doesn't require special trash bags. Still will smell if not emptied often enough but cleans easily. Jul 24, 2014
I have an older model, which really works to keep the smells at bay. Apr 25, 2014
This is good. It saves on bad odors in the room, too! Easy to work with and uses regular tall kitchen trash bags, so that saves money, too! Apr 10, 2014
I love that this uses regular garbage bags, dont have to buy expensive refills Feb 13, 2014

BEST purchase! Use your own bin bags and keep the stench at bay. Feb 01, 2014

Does not require proprietary bags. Yay for eco friendliness! Keep the smell out well. Nov 13, 2013
Easy to maintain. Keeps smells at bay except when the bag is full. Can use regular tall trash bags instead of buying pail-specific bags. Oct 23, 2013
A family I used to nanny for had this and it didn't hold in the smell at all.. Oct 17, 2013
I liked this but still feel like you don't need a diaper catcher. Just keep small grocery bags near changing area and dispose of them right away. Keeps the smell so much better! Oct 11, 2013
Love not needing special liners. Oct 09, 2013

Have used one of these for dog waste bags for years - still going strong. Have one for baby, too. Keeps smell in. Like that you can use regular bags and don't need any extra parts. Sep 04, 2013

I have the 2006 version - so much better than the current model Mar 28, 2013
- Lara P.

We used this for about 18 months and had to toss it because the smell got so bad. I hate to blame the pail - I think all just get stinky at some point. Loved being able to use regular diaper bags. Jan 22, 2013

I was not very fond of this product. After a few uses the inside held a terrible smell. Even with fresh bags the odor would leak out every time the door openend. Jan 21, 2019

Cheaper than competitors and you can use your own trash bags. It does get stinky, but the stink stays in!!! Jul 10, 2017

The plastic holds the stinky diaper smelled. And the part where you put the diaper in and turn got mold in it. Feb 05, 2017

Going strong after 8 years and 3 kids! Our favorite feature is that you can use any trash bag and don't have to use special refills. Dec 30, 2016

I really don't like this. It does not do a good job of blocking odors, even with febreeze bags and backing soda disks in it. Plus the handle doesn't work well. Sep 18, 2016
- Erin F.
Keizer, Oregon
Love the price and the fact that there are no refills to buy! The best part is that it keeps the smell in better than even some of the high-end models! Note: don't let it get too full or it can jam! Oct 14, 2015
- Christa V.

Love this because you can use regular garbage bags, no fancy refills or expensive bags. I just purchase scented bags that I use for my kitchen. Works great! Oct 31, 2014

Never used this. I found that scented diaper bags and a trash can was a little easier and smelled better. Sep 26, 2014

Suggest highly based on the fact i can use regular garbage bags. I do admit, doesnt always keep the smell in, but I now tend to only throw pee diapers in here and take the poop out to main garbage Jan 15, 2014
