3.0 out of 5 stars Not so good if you're using cloth., April 27, 2008
This review is from: Safety 1st Simple Step Diaper Pail (Baby Product)
I purchased this pail for use with cloth diapers. This pail works but has some flaws.

I like the foot pedal but it doesn't work all that well, it basically lifts it up enough to squeeze the diaper in. I feel it should lift higher so that I'm not struggling to insert a diaper.

The pail is made to use standard size grocery store bags but they are a tight squeeze and I can barely fit one days worth of cloth diapers in the pail. They are larger than disposable diapers so I'm not sure how many disposables it could hold. Trying to get a standard size grocery bag on it is such a pain (and in my case, wasteful since I use cloth diapers that I have to wash) that I made a liner from PUL (the waterproof material cloth diapers are made from) with an elastic top that goes in the wash with my diapers. It fits great although the heavier cloth material makes it more difficult for the metal rod/lever to lift the lid but it is not much different than with a plastic bag... Read more

"Helps keep unpleasant diaper odors from leaving the pail"
- Yes, it does. Our daugther is only 3 months old, so the really stinky diapers are still to come (so I'm told). I always change the pail outside, and it smells when doing so.

"Built-in deodorizer compartment"
- It doesn't stink around it, so I'll agree with that statement

"Locks in a closed position so children won't open the pail"
WRONG. You can easily life the lid up with your fingers. Our baby is too young to crawl, so that hasn't been an issue yet, but I guarantee she will be able to lift it open when the time comes.

"Uses standard plastic bags"
This was the selling point. My wife is anti-garbage bags. She saves all her grocery bags, throws trash in there which then goes to the can outside. I've learned to deal with it. It is amazing how many diapers a regular grocery bag can hold, but I suggest using a bag a little larger.

"Easy one-hand use"

5.0 out of 5 stars just what I needed, April 7, 2008

This review is from: Safety 1st Simple Step Diaper Pail (Baby Product)
I bought this to use for my daughter's cloth diapers. It works great. It's small enough to lift when dumping out the water (as long as you don't over fill it). It's also small enough to not take up too much space in the laundry room. And it's very easy to clean and you don't have to worry about touching the lid with a yucky diaper in your hand!
