Product Description
Experienced moms love the way this popular product keeps germs and odors out of the nursery with just a twist of the wrist. Winner of the American Baby Magazine's AMBY award for products that moms just can't live without, the Diaper Genie is easy to use and easy to clean. Its simple twist-away action seals each diaper individually, locking in germs and odors. Simply open the lid, place the soiled diaper inside and twist the rotating ring. The diaper is sealed and the nursery is odor-free! A safety lid will keep curious children out, and the large base makes disposal easy. Holds about 30 medium-sized diapers.

Editorial Review
Everyone agrees: dirty diapers stink. If parents could, they'd probably call in a genie to magic away all evidence of those poopy dipes. But for those who have not found an enchanted lamp lately, the new and improved Diaper Genie is a pretty good alternative. The basic idea is that you drop the used diaper into the bin, give the lid a few twists, and voila! The offensive item has been sealed away into a scented plastic liner. When the bin is full, open the base of the Genie and dump the sausaged, wrapped diapers into the garbage. No odor, no germs, no fuss! The newly designed version features more convenient one-handed operation and a built-in cutting system (with safety latch to keep little fingers out) for easy and quick disposal. Inserting the refills has also been made easier--just remove the old refill, plop in the new one, and tie a knot. Includes one Stage 1 refill (for breast- or formula-fed babies only). Assembly required. --Emilie Coulter

Totally unnecessary!!! February 20, 2009

This is a useless money waster. The diapers are in an enclosed space and therefore they REEK! Get yourself a small cheap waste basket, line it with a plastic grocery store bag and take the diapers out at night when you put your baby to bed. You will save a ton of money and won't have to deal with diaper odor. My daughter is 7 yo and has special needs. If I don't have problems with a 7 yo's diaper odor you certainly won't with your baby. My diaper genie was smelly, expensive, and awkward to use. I would pay someone to take it away if I hadn't already thrown it in the dumpster.

Not the best in diaper pails February 1, 2009

I didn't know too much about diaper pails so when we got this, we thought it would work wonders. Wrong! The pail still has smells and you have to buy special containers to refill. My daughter goes though about one bundle a week and then we have to change it. We still however use it. It's been with us for about a year but I am defentially looking for a new one. Just make sure you have an air freshener near buy when you're changing the pail.

More of a pain than a help! November 21, 2008

This takes two hands, expensive refills, and it still allows the smell. Not worth it at all. We went to a regular trash can that we empty in the evening! So much easier!!!

I purchased the diaper genie based on previous experience with my mom using it with my much younger siblings. And my baby boy is almost 1 month old and we have had to empty it twice and we're still using the refill that came with it. What i love about it is how easy it is to use it. It does open with one hand, don't listen to the other reviews they just aren't using it right. There is a small notch, about the size of a nickel under the button that opens it, it's there for you to slide your finger under and use your thumb to press on the button, and WOW...it opens with one hand :) Yah it does make a crinkling noise when putting the diaper in and a cranking noise when turning the dial on top, but that doesn't bother me cause i don't want my baby to need complete silence to sleep, i think it's better they get used to loud noise's now and learn to sleep through them. Also it's really easy to empty, just use one hand to push the cutting button and the other to turn the dial, open the bottom and you have a nice strand of diapers tightly wound ready for the trash. Also we haven't had any problems with smell,and it's currently in our bedroom next to the pack n play. Definetly worth it, just don't buy it here, we got it locally for $25.

Great product ... just not for me September 7, 2008

I purchased this product but after about a week of use I realized it just wasn't for me. It seemed like a waste of money when I could just walk the diapers out to the trash and save the hassel of the diaper genie. I ended up selling it to a neighbor for half the price that I paid but at least I didn't waste tons more purchasing all of those refills. :)
