I recommend to all my new mom to be friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1608485 Fri, 02 May 2014 11:01:16 +0000 photojane 1608485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a Diaper Genie, but it didn't even contain the pee smell - let alone the poop. It stinks and barely holds any diapers, so we bought a regular step-open trash can for pee diapers. We put the poops in a plastic bag and put them in the outside trash.</p> <p>ETA: I regularly Lysol the pee diaper trash can, because it can be really smelly when you open to put a new diaper in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1608405 Fri, 02 May 2014 10:46:14 +0000 MrsH 1608405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The ubbi is pretty amazing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1608329 Fri, 02 May 2014 10:31:53 +0000 Smurfette 1608329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ElbieKay: We have the Dekor.......just wait! There is no masking that solid poop smell :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1608323 Fri, 02 May 2014 10:30:32 +0000 cascademom 1608323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like our Diaper Genie. It does the job. We use the Target refills for it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1608309 Fri, 02 May 2014 10:27:58 +0000 Meltini 1608309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the Ubbi and love it. It uses regular trash bags and doesn't smell at all when closed. We flush the poop so it doesn't stink when open but if you don't flush the poop you will get hit with a wall of stank when you open it to put in a new diaper. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1608301 Fri, 02 May 2014 10:25:52 +0000 sumer08 1608301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a Diaper Genie, and honestly, it's worked great for us. No complaints! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1608100 Fri, 02 May 2014 09:41:40 +0000 Beehive 1608100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the Ubbi is great. I realize how great it is every time I slide open the top to put another diaper in, and really get to smell what's going on in there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607708 Fri, 02 May 2014 07:49:15 +0000 Alivoo01 1607708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another Ubbi fan here! Love that I can use regular trash bags and it contains the smell. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607564 Fri, 02 May 2014 06:10:04 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1607564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What really worked for us is using plain old freezer bags. We wrap all her poopy diapers in them and use a normal (small) trash can with lid. When she was younger and didn't eat solids, we had the Korbell diaper bin that we loved. We got the Angelcare one for free and thought it was pretty useless since the seal wasn't as tight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607558 Fri, 02 May 2014 06:05:02 +0000 looch 1607558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone who says their diaper can doesn't smell is immune to the smell. They all stink at some point, sorry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607550 Fri, 02 May 2014 05:49:59 +0000 hilsy85 1607550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ElbieKay: oh man I miss the days of breast fed baby poops!! I don't remember them being stinky at all! Nowadays, however.... :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607517 Fri, 02 May 2014 04:46:21 +0000 London Mama 1607517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the diaper genie and like it a lot, it's a great height and contains the smell just fine. You still have to empty it regularly of course but it's been a life saver in our house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607416 Fri, 02 May 2014 01:13:16 +0000 CRGmama 1607416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my ubbi so far!

So there is a lot is opportunity for the odor situation to devolve. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607293 Thu, 01 May 2014 22:09:48 +0000 Jellyfish 1607293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a diaper genie and it works pretty well at containing the stink...for explosives poops, I put it in a plastic bag and throw it out right away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607288 Thu, 01 May 2014 22:07:33 +0000 mrs. wagon 1607288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. We put all poopy diapers into a plastic bag, knot it and put it directly outside in the trash can with our dog poops too. We have the diaper champ and for just pee dipes it's fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607283 Thu, 01 May 2014 22:05:08 +0000 Bookish 1607283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pui: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0015YJ9WA" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0015YJ9WA</a><br /> This one! Normal grocery bags fit in it, which we liked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607269 Thu, 01 May 2014 22:00:30 +0000 bookwormmama 1607269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second @troberts1021's comments on the Dekor Plus. I bought it because it was at my Target for $10 (online only returned to store) but it actually does a good job holding in the smell. There was a period where the diapers definitely stunk (it smelled when we put a diaper in) but the room never smelled, even with the door closed when we weren't in there.</p> <p>My LO is 6 weeks and EBF. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607234 Thu, 01 May 2014 21:41:10 +0000 pui 1607234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bookish: Which simplehuman trash can did you use? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607228 Thu, 01 May 2014 21:39:50 +0000 Tanjowen 1607228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought a Dekor pail at Target and love it so far. I wanted something with a foot pedal and it is easy to empty and contains the smell so far. It can also double as a regular trash can in the future. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607136 Thu, 01 May 2014 21:09:41 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1607136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like our Ubbi so far! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607104 Thu, 01 May 2014 20:52:37 +0000 septca 1607104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We also have the Munchkin Arm and Hammer. Honestly, I love it. I did not have high expectations, but it's pretty great.

Then again, we only use 1-2 a day. I have a simple Safety 1st can for my cloth and it works very well for the poopy cloth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1607048 Thu, 01 May 2014 20:34:02 +0000 Sapphiresun 1607048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think people have unrealistic expectations of their diaper pails. </p> <p>We just have an ikea trash can with an air freshener stuck on top, and we take it out frequently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1606991 Thu, 01 May 2014 20:13:35 +0000 hilsy85 1606991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like the ubbi! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1606987 Thu, 01 May 2014 20:12:49 +0000 delight 1606987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We like our Munchkin Arm &amp; Hammer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1606981 Thu, 01 May 2014 20:11:35 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 1606981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've been pretty happy with the Munchkin Arm &amp; Hammer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-decent-diaper-pails#post-1606969 Thu, 01 May 2014 20:07:27 +0000 HLK208 1606969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like the diaper genie.
