Diaper Genie Classic Pail Includes 1 Starter Square Refill That can Hold up to 165 Newborn-Sized Diapers.

If your looking for something that does the job and is compact, does not take up a whole bunch of space. Great product for the price! Just make sure you buy the correct bag refills! Not all the refills fit.

To be honest sometimes better than the larger pail! I have the larger pail in the nursery and this smaller one in our bedroom and it works perfectly and fits sooo much with NO ODOR!

It holds well and the smells of diapers don't go up

Worth it! I got this one as a backup in another room for emergencies, after I purchased the large size one. Happy with both, game changer. Can’t smell a thing, easy to use, and change out.

### Pros1. **Twist It, Seal It, Love It**No foot pedal? Who cares! You plop that diaper in, give the top a twirl like you’re mixing a potion, and boom—stink’s gone faster than my willpower near a pizza. It’s hands-on, sure, but it’s like a mini workout for your wrists—parenting CrossFit, baby!2. **Smell Slayer (Most Days)**That seven-layer bag and clamp combo is like a wizard casting a “no-stink” spell. Once it’s twisted shut, your nursery stays fresher than a TikTok dance trend. It’s not invincible (hold that thought), but it’s leagues above the trash can that betrayed me last week.3. **Diaper Vault Goals**This thing’s a champ at hoarding—30-35 newborn diapers fit in there like a Tetris master’s dream. You’re not hauling trash out every day, which is clutch when you’re living in sweatpants and survival mode. It’s the procrastination enabler I never knew I needed.4. **Sleek Space-Saver**Tall and skinny, it slides into a corner like it’s auditioning for “Nursery Chic: The Movie.” Some models even let you slap a cute fabric sleeve on it—suddenly, it’s not just a diaper bin, it’s decor. No back-breaking bends required, either—hallelujah!5. **Bag Game Strong**The continuous bag roll with that built-in cutter? Smooth as butter. Fill it up, snip it, tie it, yeet it—no fumbling like a fool every time. It’s the kind of convenience that makes you whisper, “Okay, Diaper Genie, you’re kinda hot.”---### Cons1. **Stink Sneak Attack**Open that lid, and it’s like a poop gremlin jumps out yelling, “Surprise, sucker!” You’ve gotta twist quick, or the smell hits you like a toddler’s tantrum—loud and unavoidable. It locks it up after, but that moment? Woof.2. **Bag Refill Racket**Those fancy bags are the Genie’s side hustle—$6-$8 a pop, and you’re stuck buying them or risking a stink rebellion with generics. It’s like the Genie’s winking at you, “You’re in too deep now, pal—fork it over.”3. **Plastic Panic**The build’s flimsier than my excuses for skipping laundry. The twist part’s fine, but the body? One rogue kick from a cranky kid, and I’m betting it cracks like my dreams of a full night’s sleep. It’s not tank-tough, is what I’m saying.4. **Setup Struggle Bus**Installing that first bag roll is a sitcom-level disaster. Thread it, knot it, pull it through—directions sound simple, but it’s like wrestling an octopus while your baby wails the soundtrack. You’ll figure it out, but not without some swear-word poetry.5. **Big Diaper Drama**Hit size 4 or pull-ups, and this thing turns into a diva. You’re cramming those chonky diapers in like you’re stuffing a piñata, and the twist gets grumpy. It’s less “effortless” and more “please, just fit, I beg you.”---### The VerdictThe Diaper Genie (no pedal, all twist) is like a BFF who’s 80% awesome and 20% annoying. It traps smells, hides diapers, and looks decent doing it—earning big points for keeping my sanity intact. But the whiff when you open it, the bag hustle, and the plastic vibes? They dock it a star. It’s a 4/5 in my book—great, not perfect, like a babysitter who’s clutch but eats all your snacks. Would I arm-wrestle a possum for it? Sure, but I’d probably lose—worth it, though!

It's small but it works great. It doesn't leave the bad smell that other bigger ones have. I recommend it.

Buyers BEWARE!!! This is one of my least favorite items l've bought for my newborn. I always heard great things about this item but experiencing it myself is a totally different story! The diaper pail smells 100x WORSE than the actual diapers being changed. Every time I open it to throw out a dirty diaper it smells like ROTTEN EGGS and the smell lasts in the room for a while, I can't take it. I change the pail out every other day and it smells even if it is empty. I even bought the refills from this brand and it does not block the odor or whatever it claims. Lastly the refills I purchased do not stay put In the bin in keeps collapsing when I put a diaper in the bin. Save your money and buy a better option than this one!

Works great! Keeps the stink inside, easy to use, great size and looks nice for a garbage can!
