Playtex Diaper Genie II Review

While it certianly is not a necessity, the Diaper Genie II has been a godsend for us.  We have a dog that LOOOOVES to eat things like diapers.  The dirtier teh better if you catch my drift.  The diaper Genie II keeps him out!  Even flip top trash cans can't stop him so the fact that the lid snaps shut is perfect.  It does not pop open when knocked over either- so sneaky Fido can't even use that tactic.

Pros- Durable, it is sturdy and durable, so no issues with is cracking and releasing diaper smell.

It really does keep the smell contained.  The lid snaps tight so ther eisn't much room for stinky air to escape.  Now- when you open it to put a dirty dipe in it, well, what can you expect really?

Refills are easy to find and get.  Every grocery store and big box store has them.

Cons- That lid really snaps tight!  Sometimes this causes problems when trying to open it while holding a dipe and trying to stop a baby from squirming off the changing table.

Refills are expensive- $5 a pop around where I live.  Each lasts about a week or two at first (when baby has to be changed a million times a day!) Now that baby is older and more steady in her potty habits a refill lasts longer.- Plus she has daycare  during the week so we don't have to use it as much.

I like my Diaper Genie II-  My child is 10 months old and we still use it everyday.
