what parents are saying
Perfect for young baby pee diapers since you change them so much. Instead of filling up your kitchen and bathroom trash can you can use this. Holds so many diapers and locks the smell in. (Sep 28, 2017)

Honestly they all stink. There is no avoiding it. After a day+ of diapers any can is going to reek once you crack that lid. They are easy to change the bags which is nice. Aug 30, 2024

This works great for odor elimination and saving trips to the dumpster. Cutting the bag is easy with the built in slicer. It’s low profile and stores at least a few days worth of diapers. Aug 03, 2024

We love our diaper genie! It keeps the smell inside really well! Apr 09, 2024

I had originally received this as a gift at my baby shower. It broke within 2 weeks of my baby being born. Cheap material used and you have to purchase special trash bags for it as well. Jan 29, 2024

I can't say I would have purchased this myself, it was a shower gift. It works fine - my baby is breastfed and only just starting solids. The refills are expensive and I would buy a separate can. Jan 08, 2024

I have a love hate with the diaper geni! It is convenient especially with diaper hungry pets around, BUT even emptied daily and using scented bags and filters I found it smelled when opened Oct 27, 2023

This thing keeps the odor in surprisingly well. It's easy to change the bag and to replace the bag cartridge. Oct 25, 2023

Hate my diaper genie! Just get a dekor instead! Hard to change the bags and does not contain smells. Oct 06, 2023

Keeps odors away, seals well, easy to change bags, super easy to use and can be done one-handed while changing or holding baby. Aesthetically pleasing. Sep 14, 2023

It keeps smell in great, but does not hold a lot of diapers. I prefer pails that don’t require special bags. Sep 07, 2023

It’s OK. I absolutely hate changing the bag. I like the step to open Sep 04, 2023

As a nurse I smell poop all day at work and would rather not smell it all day at home, this is a life saver. Of course the smell escapes for the second you open it but once closed it keeps smells in! Aug 26, 2023

Dislike that it gets jammed when the diapers are not folded small enough for the genie's opening. Makes it a little tricky when baby has a pretty messy diaper and you have to get it just right to fit. Aug 14, 2023

I love this! When you walk into a room you know when someone didn't use the Diaper Genie. It keeps my nursery from getting smelly. Aug 09, 2023

we have this an the Elite, we prefer this one as its easer to empty and doesn't break as often. I like that is also have a spot to cut the bag so you don't need to rip it or find scissors to cut it. Jul 31, 2023

Holds in the stink and holds a lot of diapers too. Jan 31, 2023

I think this is very helpful in the beginning when my bevies had a lot of diapers but as they get older they don’t use as many diapers so it takes a while to fill up and then it begins to stink. Mar 23, 2022

No more stinky diapers. The foot pedal is nice so you don't have to push the dirty diaper down the chute like some other diaper pails. Mar 03, 2022

-keeps the smell in -it took us until our 3rd kid to buy this and we are kicking ourselves we didn't do it sooner -easy to change the bags -easy open foot pedal Jun 04, 2020

Great for diapers if you don't want to throw the trash out every night. It's just killer when you do need to remove the bag when the diapers are full. Mar 04, 2020

I like having a disconnected area to put my diapers in. I'm satisfied it does what it's supposed to. It contains the smells and it's easy to dispose of. Feb 01, 2020

I've been through 3 of these because they get gross and smelly. I don't like the mechanism, when it starts getting full you have to push the diaper down with your hand and then your hand smells! Dec 29, 2019

Minimizes odor, convenient, and easy to use. Removing bag is challenging if you put one too many diapers in though. Has built in bag cutter which is convenient. Jun 01, 2019

Must have product! Keeps the smell out of the room and as long as you change the carbon filters! The smell doesn’t linger out of the Genie when it’s open. Very convenient to have next to a changer. May 10, 2019

Love that it has a foot pedal which makes it easy to toss the diaper in. Keeps the smell contained. Easy to remove bags and replace them. Apr 06, 2019

I like that it holds a lot of diapers and contains odour fairly well.It's hard to refill the bags and hard to put dirty diapers into the genie one-handed Mar 26, 2019

Could not live without this right next to our changing table! No dirty diaper smell at all! Jan 27, 2019

We have the litter genie and that thing doesn't let smells out so I figured this would work just as well and YEP. Love it for stinky diapers. Apr 23, 2018

This is a great trash can for diapers, but you HAVE to remember to change it. The smell can only be contained for so long before it starts seeping out. Feb 04, 2018

Sleek looking and contains all the diaper smells. Easy to open with the foot pedal and easy to remove the dirty diapers. Has a bag cutting device built into the genie so you do not need scissors Jan 27, 2018

its okay- I use this in the nursery but end up using other trashcans around house as well. I like that the genie is contains the diapers more vs regular trash can. Oct 22, 2017

We went a year and a half just using a regular trash can. We finally decided to make the switch. Best decision ever. It has completely kept the smell out of our daughters room. Very happy with it! Jun 05, 2017

Purchased to replace our Elite and hugely regret. Does not contain smell, once opened the room the room will stink for an hour. Does not seal on sides, and first one broke while trying to assemble. Apr 03, 2017

I love love love genie, have two of them. Keeps small away, doesn't take much space in room. Bags are little expensive to rebuy, I get mine in Costco or bjs, great deal especially if you get coupon Mar 05, 2017

This was a must have in my household. Keeps the smell at bay and holds plenty of diapers. The refills are affordable as well Mar 02, 2017

I thought I was going to love this product and as much as I did, I did not. I walked into LO's room and it did nothing with containing the smell. I've seen other pails so wish me luck in finding one. Feb 20, 2017

I love my diaper genies. They save me money as far as garbage bags go! Super convenient Jan 05, 2017

They've changed from the old model- But it's still a cheap product. Broke within 3 weeks of baby. Returned it, store manager said they have so many issues and wish they didn't have to carry them. Dec 09, 2016

I didn't think we would ever really use our diaper genie and I am obsessed. So obsessed I bought a second for downstairs. So convenient and keeps you from having to throw diapers in your regular trash Nov 10, 2016

Playtex finally got it right! Love the pedal to lift the top. The front pulls out instead of lifting the whole top half off. Much easier to empty. Doesn't hold as many dirty diapers that I'd like, but it works. Jul 13, 2016
