I don't have it, but I have used it. I don't like it because the diapers still smell, and you have to buy refills. I got the Diaper Champ. I never smell it, unless I'm changing the bag, and you don't need to buy special refills. You use your own kitchen garbage bags.

My SIL and cousin have one from Target, its made by safety 1st and it works wonders! My cousin had the diper genie and threw it out and got this one!
They both love it and it doenst need any special bags, just kitchen bags and its a lot cheaper than diper genie!

Nope, don't use one. I get rid of dirty diapers as soon as I take them off.

I had one. After a while the thing just reaks of urine no matter how much we cleaned it. Much easier to throw them out as you go!

I have a Diaper Dekor and love it. No smells at all.It is easy to change and empty. I keep it in my room since that is where I normally change the baby and I am glad we got it.

Yuck! As soon as it's off it goes in a small trash can I leave outside of my front door, I put scented bags in it and it keeps all smells in the can and out of my house!!! The diaper genie was gross, how many times did I tryto turn the diaper as I pushed it through the top hole and that wonderful yellow, breastfed baby poop got all over my hand!

We had it in the beginning but after awhile when you had to empty it or change the bag thing, it got really stanky....

I now buy the Glad kitchen bags with odor eliminator... It even covers if DH forgets to take the bag out right away!! Phew!

I used it in the beginning with Emma. She was strictly breastfed for 5 months and their poop doesnt smell like formula fed babies do so I would change it when it got full. Now with her eatting solids... diapers go in the trash outside!
