Diaper Genies?

Question

For all the experienced moms out there, do diaper genies actually work? Do they only really work for pee diapers, and not the stinky 💩 diapers? 
I’d hate to purchase something that’s doesn’t really work well. Is there a better way to toss out the diapers without trapping smells in the bedroom or the house in general?

Answer

Works for sure!!! When u open it to empty it u realize just how well lol I would never go without one.

Answer

I used one with my first. It was cool and all. But I haven’t used one with my second and I won’t with my third. Just not necessary. I take out my trash in my house every day. If there is a really extra bad poopy diaper then I immediately take it out to the trash can outside.

Answer

They do get stinky. But if you empty it everyday it should be fine. Whether it works for everyone or not I still like it. I don’t have to figure out what to do with a poop diaper while changing it in the middle of the night or stress when we have a bad diaper that I need to get rid of right that second. I don’t know about anyone else but I don’t want to bag it up and walk it outside in the middle of the night 🤷🏻‍♀️ I find it helpful.

Answer

I don’t own one, but I’ve been places that have them and I still smell the diapers. I feel like no matter what kind of diaper pail you get, you can become “nose blind” to it. After about a year, I ended up just throwing out all the diapers in the big trash bin in the garage after each changing. I tie them up in old plastic grocery bags or the plastic diaper bags you can buy.

Answer

It’s a scam. Plus why would you leave a diaper with fecal matter in a room.

Answer

In my opinion I love mine. I've used it with all my babies you can put pee and poop in them but obviously poop gets stinky if left for a few days so you have to change it every couple days but it's so much better then open trash cans and running to the dumpster several times a day

Answer

I have them in their rooms! I find it works great! For downstairs we just use old grocery bags and take them straight to the big garbage outside.

Answer

yes 100% . it’s a wonderful thing .

Answer

I only use it for the poopy diapers. I find it really really keeps the smell away. You have to buy the carbon refills though, if you don’t then the smell is very present.

Answer

I had one but my little poop machine of a daughter filled up a diaper genie within a day, sometimes if I’m lucky 1.5 day and it was not convenient having to change it and take it out daily. So I switched to a bigger 13 gallon trash with a lid and that bought me an extra day (lol) and also did the trick for no smell. 2nd child I’ll be passing on the diaper genie again
