Flawed design

I received a diaper genie a few years ago and it has since broken I decided to go for the newer Elite model which is a big disappointment. The design is flawed, the front handle constantly falls off, the front canister doesn’t seal at all so I could remove the front piece without the handle, the compartment where the deodorizer goes always falls off. I love the old design and wish I would’ve purchased the original complete style. Poor poor design, nothing elite about it besides the slick look.

Works Great

I very much enjoyed having this. It makes it so much easier to have right next to the changing table. It is effective with holding In the odors. BUT BEWARE when you open the lid as it gets full, there's nothing that can save you from that whiff!

You need it!

I hear some people say that their Diaper Genie was a waste of money, but I do not agree. It is a must have. I buy the refills at Costco and shove Scentsy car bars or dryer sheets in both the lid and the compartment that holds the bag.

must have!

I cannot imagine my daily routine without diaper ganie. When you have a newborn, there is no much time for utilizing every dirty diaper in a separate garbage bag, so this device is a life saver, you won't need to deal with smelly diapers anymore.

A life saver

This diaper pail is a life saver! I have a 3.5 month old daughter and so far so good! It allows me to put dirty diapers in a closed bin locking in the smelly scent without having to go the garbage bin outside every few minutes. I have a pail on each floor! It is also so convenient during late nights and early morning where it is still dark outside and I don't have to walk up and down the stairs. I highly recommend!

Love it!

I love this product so much I actually have 2; one on each floor. It's so convenient to open and it contains the smell great! You do have to change the carbon filter about every 9 months (can buy them separately) or whenever it starts to stink.

I don't find the diaper genie works that great. The smell is contained until you open the top and add another diaper then its like a big old dirty diaper to the nose. The smell is awful . I change my refill bags daily to combat the odor but it doesn't seem to help. Im about ready to throw it out. Loved it for the first year, now not so much.

I absolutely love my Diaper Genie Elite. I find that it contains the dirty diaper smell very well. Once the lid is closed I cannot smell any dirty diapers. The foot peddle function to open the lid is perfect and makes dropping the diaper in the pail very easy. Also the top of the lid, two flaps close to help contain the odour and I find it works well. Don't know what I would do without my diaper genie!

I love the diaper genie i like having a seperate spot for diapers to go instead of putting them in my open green bin where they will smell. i love how you can get different colors as well

I have mixed reviews regarding this diaper genie. I loved it at first however since using it for over a year I would probably choose a different brand of diaper pail in the future.

My issues are:
- It does not keep the "smells" contained very well (even with changing the air freshener regularly),
- Ours has jammed a few times after changing the bags.
