I was debating between this and the original Baby Trend Diaper Champ in Pink and picked this mostly because it was on sale at the time. That being said, I am very pleased with this product and would highly recommend it to other new parents. Yes, it's basically a plastic trash can, but it does a great job of containing baby stink! I like that the diapers, wipes, etc are all contained within the plastic bag and I never have to clean the container itself...unlike the Diaper Champ I used at a friend's, when the diaper smeared all over the plunger part and I had to use a dozen wipes to get it cleaned up. Yuck!
I can generally go a full week without emptying the Genie, which takes all of twenty seconds - open the top half, cut, tie a knot on the full bag, remove full bag, tie a knot on the empty bag, pull a little extra through the "jaws" and close the top half. It's at a comfortable height for both myself (5'3") and my husband (5'10") to use. We're not exactly gentle with it sometimes and it's held up very well to 7 1/2 months of daily use. I did throw one of my Munchkin Arm and Hammer Nursery Fresheners, 5 Pack in the bottom of the Genie but that was more because I like the lavender scent than because there was odor to cover up. The refills generally last 3-4 weeks for us and it's easy to tell when you're almost out, since there's a big black line on the plastic bag.
If given a mulligan, I would buy this again.Get more detail about Diaper Genie II Elite Pail System.
