Fourth Time’s a Charm?

I am not exaggerating in the least when I say this is the fourth diaper pail we used... with one child. We received the Diaper Genie as a gift and I absolutely despised it. It didn't keep the smell...

Pros: uses regular garbage bags, easy to change bags, easy to use, traps odors pretty well
Cons: can be tricky to open

When I was pregnant, I had many friends and family members recommending baby products that I had to have. This was fine with me because I had no clue how to select most of the things we needed. I knew we needed a diaper pail of some sort and had always ...

Pros: no special bags, one hand operation (at times), easy to replace bags
Cons: smelly, doesn't hold lots of diapers, messy and icky to clean

I don't think I've ever been more mortified than when someone I barely knew walked into my home and asked me if I had a lot of cats. Granted that kitty box smell was lingering in the air, but it wasn't caused by cats - it was caused primarily by one of...

Pros: No special bags required, Easy to use, perfect for use before solids
Cons: Bulkier than other versions, does not perfectly contain odors after starting solids

I chose the Diaper Champ over the Diaper Genie primarily because it doesn't require the purchase of special bags for its use. We've been using it for almost 8 months now, and have found it to work fairly well. Appearance Appearance is ...

Pros: Large Capacity, takes any bags, fairly easy to use
Cons: Smell, loading the bags

Well, I haven't quite figured out who the winner is with the Diaper Champ. Having suffered through my first-born's diaper days with the original Diaper Genie, I promised with my second child, things were going to be different.

I required...

Pros: Easy to use. Uses regular garbage bags.
Cons: Locks up when full and requires two hands to deal with, eyesore

I have been using the Diaper Champ for almost 4 months now. I considered the Diaper Genie, Diaper Dekor, and Diaper Champ. I chose the diaper champ mostly because it uses normal garbage bags instead of unique, expensive refills and because it was ...

Pros: Uses regular bags. Fun to use. Seems to fill up just as changes are necessary.
Cons: Probably won't hold the smells when baby gets older.

I have to admit that I was intrigued when I first saw the Diaper Genie at my brother's house. As he shoved one of my niece's soiled diapers into the opening and gave it a twist, I thought it seemed like some sort of high tech space-age diaper wrapper....

Pros: Can hold quite a few diapers, Can use your own plastic bags, Easy operation, Easy to clean and maintain
Cons: Doesn't really work well with heavily soiled diapers,

TO USE OR NOT TO USE:
With the arrival of our precious baby girl, we knew that there were some things that we needed very badly. One of the most dreaded things that comes to mind is changing diapers. Ooooh... My wife and I debated...

Pros: Can't be opened by my toddler, Can be opened by me, Uses regular trash bags
Cons: A little pricey

It's not normal to feel so strongly about a diaper pail. I LOVE my Diaper Champ. Probably because I hated my Diaper Genie and my Safety 1st Odorless Diaper Pail (see rather passionate opinion) so much.

The Diaper Champ:

* Uses...

Pros: Uses regular garbage bags for refills, can be used with cloth diapers
Cons: The locking mechanism can be a little tough to open

Ok, so I'm a first time mom...and like many others, one of my biggest concerns before having my baby was trying to minimize the muss and fuss around those dreaded diaper changes. I decided on the Diaper Champ because I didn't want a house that smelled...

Pros: USES ANY TRASH BAG! unobtrusive, easy to use, easy to unload.
Cons: Smells when unloading, but hey, you changed the diaper! The smell is inevitable.

When planning our nursery needs and her shopping list for "The Shower" my wife dragged me from store to store across hill and dale and from country to county in search of the best products for our registry, our first nursery and in effect for our first...

Pros: uses standard bags, durable, one-handed ease
Cons: not completely "odorless"

Over the course of being a mom, I have added many new titles to my career: Money Management Specialist, Scheduling Assistant, Experimental Dietician, Laundry Service Extraordinaire and now for my newest title -Waste Management Engineer. From the day my...

Pros: Large capacity, uses regular bags, easy to use and set up
Cons: Occasionally things get stuck/difficult to clean cylinder

First, let me say that until seeing reviews at epinions, we planned on getting the Diaper Genie. I didn't want to have to deal with the bags and the more difficult disposal method, so we gave the Diaper Champ the nod.

EASY TO ASSEMBLE
...

Pros: easy to use, can use regular bags
Cons: not totally odorless

When we did our baby registry at Toys R Us, we were given the choice between the Diaper Genie and the Diaper Champ. I remember a friend of mine complaining profusely that the Genie was horrible - her husband got his hand stuck in it, the refill bags were...

Pros: easy to operate, large capacity
Cons: lingering odor, large size

I had a Diaper Genie, actually two Genies, for 18 months before I started using the Diaper Champ. I had been convinced by other parents online that the Champ was better than the Genie, both in ease-of-use and odor control. I was pleased...
