Diaper Genie Classic Pail Includes 1 Starter Square Refill That can Hold up to 165 Newborn-Sized Diapers.

The price point is what got me. 22 dollars?! That's insane! Keeps the smell out and is super convenient. You will have to buy more bags separately, but worth it.

I will have a diaper genie for all my babies! I have my second son now and I purchased this item again after using it with my older son! No one wants to smell a poppy diaper and even less people want to take the diaper outside each time. I myself am too busy for that but cannot stand the smell of dirty diapers. This pail is perfect! My son currently sleeps in my room and his diapers pail is at the end of the bed and you can’t smell a thing! You would never know! It is simple and compact and just hands down a baby must have.

This comes in handy for a new born

Great buy! The design is super cute, keeps smells locked in, super easy to use and cleaning is so simple my kiddos help!

### Pros1. **Twist It, Seal It, Love It**No foot pedal? Who cares! You plop that diaper in, give the top a twirl like you’re mixing a potion, and boom—stink’s gone faster than my willpower near a pizza. It’s hands-on, sure, but it’s like a mini workout for your wrists—parenting CrossFit, baby!2. **Smell Slayer (Most Days)**That seven-layer bag and clamp combo is like a wizard casting a “no-stink” spell. Once it’s twisted shut, your nursery stays fresher than a TikTok dance trend. It’s not invincible (hold that thought), but it’s leagues above the trash can that betrayed me last week.3. **Diaper Vault Goals**This thing’s a champ at hoarding—30-35 newborn diapers fit in there like a Tetris master’s dream. You’re not hauling trash out every day, which is clutch when you’re living in sweatpants and survival mode. It’s the procrastination enabler I never knew I needed.4. **Sleek Space-Saver**Tall and skinny, it slides into a corner like it’s auditioning for “Nursery Chic: The Movie.” Some models even let you slap a cute fabric sleeve on it—suddenly, it’s not just a diaper bin, it’s decor. No back-breaking bends required, either—hallelujah!5. **Bag Game Strong**The continuous bag roll with that built-in cutter? Smooth as butter. Fill it up, snip it, tie it, yeet it—no fumbling like a fool every time. It’s the kind of convenience that makes you whisper, “Okay, Diaper Genie, you’re kinda hot.”---### Cons1. **Stink Sneak Attack**Open that lid, and it’s like a poop gremlin jumps out yelling, “Surprise, sucker!” You’ve gotta twist quick, or the smell hits you like a toddler’s tantrum—loud and unavoidable. It locks it up after, but that moment? Woof.2. **Bag Refill Racket**Those fancy bags are the Genie’s side hustle—$6-$8 a pop, and you’re stuck buying them or risking a stink rebellion with generics. It’s like the Genie’s winking at you, “You’re in too deep now, pal—fork it over.”3. **Plastic Panic**The build’s flimsier than my excuses for skipping laundry. The twist part’s fine, but the body? One rogue kick from a cranky kid, and I’m betting it cracks like my dreams of a full night’s sleep. It’s not tank-tough, is what I’m saying.4. **Setup Struggle Bus**Installing that first bag roll is a sitcom-level disaster. Thread it, knot it, pull it through—directions sound simple, but it’s like wrestling an octopus while your baby wails the soundtrack. You’ll figure it out, but not without some swear-word poetry.5. **Big Diaper Drama**Hit size 4 or pull-ups, and this thing turns into a diva. You’re cramming those chonky diapers in like you’re stuffing a piñata, and the twist gets grumpy. It’s less “effortless” and more “please, just fit, I beg you.”---### The VerdictThe Diaper Genie (no pedal, all twist) is like a BFF who’s 80% awesome and 20% annoying. It traps smells, hides diapers, and looks decent doing it—earning big points for keeping my sanity intact. But the whiff when you open it, the bag hustle, and the plastic vibes? They dock it a star. It’s a 4/5 in my book—great, not perfect, like a babysitter who’s clutch but eats all your snacks. Would I arm-wrestle a possum for it? Sure, but I’d probably lose—worth it, though!

Stores a lot of diapers and the odorless !

I love this so much. I was a best purchase for our baby’s diaper . It is very easy to use . Lock all the odor inside . Very easy to clean and nice design .

Short version: Design changes have made this product crappy. I'm sure the higher end versions are better and easier to use but this is a freaking poop pail. Why is there a "signature series poop pail"?Long version: When my spawn were little and still using diapers, we were gifted a Diaper Genie. And out of all the items we received it was one of the most useful. It worked wonderfully. Changing the bags and the refills wasn't exactly fun but it wasn't the hellscape it is now.This new version is worse in almost every way. The square bit is frustrating, the fact that the bit that keeps the smells from coming out is now removable!? It's just bad.Only good thing I have to say is it does what it says it will do, it keeps the smells in the can. But my god it is a pain in ever other aspect. I especially hate that now, sometimes randomly, the refill bit will fall into the can as you put the diaper in.Don't buy this one, spring for the higher end model (or better yet, a competitors model!). This one is barely worth it.
