Baby Products Reviews of Playtex Diaper Genie Twist- Away Pail System
Customer Review: Great product! But don't use it their way.
Summary: 5 Stars
This thing is really good at eliminating odors in the house. How to conserve the specialty plastic: First:tie a really tight knot when you start, otherwise it can leak. Second, you twist the inner lid after each diaper, but instead of just adding another diaper to make a sausage-link-like chain, untwist and add the next diaper, then twist again. The odors are controlled. All the diapers wind up in a single "bag" you use a LOT less plastic than if you make a chain of diapers.Customer Review: Must Have
Summary: 5 Stars
The Diaper Genie is the best. Easy to use, keeps the smell out of the room, and easy disposal when full. I had read several horrible reviews on this after purchasing this item about how difficult it is to use and how it doesn't work properly. I have to think that people are not using it properly because it's really not a difficult product to use.Customer Review: Difficult to cut bag once the pail is full
Summary: 1 Stars
When I twist the top to seal the bag after a diaper, the cutting blade snags on the bag, making sealing the diaper really difficult. Even worse, when I DO try to cut the bag, the blade does a half-hearted job, so I have to finish the job with scissors.
This has been such a problem that now that we're out of refills, we're just going to get a different diaper pail.
Customer Review: WISH I WOULD HAVE DONE MORE RESEARCH BEFORE DECIDING ON THIS PRODUCT
Summary: 1 Stars
I am not a fan of this product. When we first got it, I liked it just fine. The smell was confined, and the clean up was easy. Now that my son is 6 months old, I wish I hadn't registered for it. You have to go to BabysRUs everytime you need a refill. I go through refills about once a month (I have a genie upstairs, and one down stairs, if I had one, I'd probably have to go every 2 weeks). Having a baby in my life, I'm more frugile with my money and $10 a month on refills is not cool. They are glorified trash bags. Plus I have to go out of my way to go to BabysRUs, then you factor in impulse buys... it's not worth it. If I had invested in something like the Diaper Champ, I'd be able to use regular trash bags, that we have at our house, and the smell would still be confined. Plus you can throw things away like Q-tips without having to worry about the bag tearing. Than not realize the bag has teared, and you keep stuffing dirty diapers in it, and when you go to empty it out, you get a big fat smelly mess. This product stinks, literally.Customer Review: playtex diaper genie twist away pail system
Summary: 2 Stars
i'm not as impressed with this product as i am the genie 2. this twist away pail system only holds 30 diapers whereas the genie 2 holds many more. it's also difficult to twist when it gets nearly full and the cutting mechanism never works and i end up having to cut the bag from the inside with a sissors. i will likely purchase another system soon when my child starts to eat solids.
