Munchkin Arm & Hammer - Diaper Pail by Munchkin

Keep your nursery organized and tidy with the Munchkin Arm & Hammer Diaper Pail. It uses the odor-eliminating power of baking soda, combined with a patented self-sealing system, to lock away odors caused by used diapers. This baby diaper pail sprinkles baking soda each time the lid is closed, and continuously absorbs and eliminates odors even when the pail is not in use. The patented self-sealing system of the Munchkin Arm & Hammer Diaper Pail automatically seals the bag when the lid is closed and keeps it sealed when the lid is reopened. The disposable refill bag, each of which can hold up to 25 diapers, close tightly with a snap and can be easily tossed and replaced without cutting or tying. This diaper pail is an efficient way to dispose of your used baby diapers.

Review 1 for Arm & Hammer - Diaper Pail by Munchkin

We started out with one diaper pail in the baby's room upstairs and have recently added a second diaper pail on our main floor. After 8 months of use we are still odor free! We change the bag about once per week for each pail. It's very convenient. And we are not spending a ton of money on replacement bags. We like how the bags snap shut when being changed to further control odors. We highly recommend this product!

i got this as a gift for my baby shower and i was kind of worried about how it would work. and to my surprise I love it! i use it multiple times everyday. my daughter who is now 2 months old has A LOT of messy diapers and when i put them in this i never smell them. the only bad thing about this to me is it doesnt hold as many diapers as it says but i still think its worth it. in fact i'm buying another this weekend.

This is definitely worth the money. We have twins and as they grow you go through bags every few days.
Very simple and especially great for grandmas too since it is so affordable.

Great pail except for one thing..!

I would recommend this diaper pail, it seals the odor in like magic. I work in a day care so I am well aware of how smelly a room can get with a poor quality diaper pail. The only issue I have with it is how hard you have to shove the diaper down the flange. I always have to run to the bathroom and scrub my hands after. But obviously this is probably why the smell seals in so well. I have a newborn, and her diapers are small so I imagine it will be a bit more difficult once she gets bigger. Either way, its great to have in the nursery. It can fit a good amount of diapers in it. Would make a great baby shower gift.

This is the diaper pail I should have purchased

I bought another brand for my great grand baby 4 years ago. Then I bought this for my own home for incontinence pads. This is so much better. Easier to use, to refill liners, and to fix the occasional jams by opening the large front door and readjusting the bag. It's super at controlling odor even when putting in more diapers or reloading the liner. The baking soda dispenser in the lid adds a little after every diaper is added. The bathroom or nursery is always fresh-smelling with no masked odor. The full bag seals as it is taken out and stays sealed when discarded.
We've used ours several times a day for over a year with no problems at all. The new 30 bag packaging for refills is less expensive, too. This is a great system for diapers and incontinent pads.

Wonderful Diaper Pail

When ordering the Arm & Hammer diaper pail I wasn't sure if I should order this one or a Diaper Genie. I am so glad I chose this one. The bags are so easy to use and I love that I can refill the baking soda dispenser with different Arm and Hammer powders, such as Pet and Odor Control. I haven't smelled one dirty diaper since we started using it, and there have been some rather stinky ones. I do however wish they made them in larger sizes.

This actually exceeds my expectations! The diaper pail automatically twists the bag closed and sprinkles baking soda when you shut the lid, so no odors escape! And it does it without batteries or cords. I just love this system. Our nursery is pretty small and usually any amount of odor is REALLY noticeable, but with this, we dont smell anything! The bag refills are really decently priced and you can refill the baking soda yourself. This is a great product.

Review 10 for Arm & Hammer - Diaper Pail by Munchkin

Does the job

After owning one I have realized that basically all diaper pails are the same. So the best thing is to go with the cheapest one. All that a pail does is keeps the dirty diapers in a closed container for a long time and thus suppresses the smell. All the seemingly high-tech, odor eliminating technology talks are just plain nonsense. For example the pinch of backing soda that it spills inside the bag, every time you close the lid, or the self-sealing system, doesn't make any difference in eliminating the odor. The odor keeps out of your room simply because the smell stays inside the container. It will come out when you will open the lid. Ditto with Platex pail. Until these pails are actually made with a real odor eliminating technology, these pails are simply the same and serve the overall purpose. They merely look good in a room and are an alternative to having a grocery bag full of dirty diapers tied with rope. Functionally the latter method does the same job but doesn't look good.

I got this to repalce the gene i bought for my son two years ago. I had a problem with the gene sticking like crazy. but i think all diaper pails do. this stinks to like with some pretty stinky diapers. but i put a air freshener in pail. for some reason my pail started acting up. it can only be half way full and it acts like it cant close right and makes the crunching/breaking noise. but where so use to it. i like the bags there very easy to change and much nicer than the gene ones where its just one long bag. im not sure if the baking soda really helps any as i said i use a air freshner. if mine would break completely i think i would deff. buy this again i just wish the lid would have lasted a bit longer but im still satisfied.

I bought this diaper pail for my daughters nursery based on reviews compared to the diaper genie and I LOVE IT!! She is just making 1 month and Ive been using size 1 diapers the whole time for me it holds about 35-45 diapers (which is more than I expected) there is literally no odor and changing the bags are a breeze... So far it has been worth every penny :)

I have always loved all Arm & Hammer products so naturally when I saw this diaper pail I jumped right on it, and I am glad that I did. It dispenses baking soda with every diaper you put in so it always stays fresh. I thought it was tiny at first, but it holds a lot of diapers. Great purchase would buy it again just like any other Arm & Hammer products.

I have an incontinence problem and no way to dispose of the pads I used on a daily basis as I have trash pick up once a week. The odor was just awful. Then I thought if this works for baby diapers let me try it for my used pads. It works!!!! It holds a weeks worth of used pads and no odor at all!!! I keep it in my masterbath and empty once a week when the trash is picked up.

Best diaper pail

This is the best diaper pail! I like it so much better than my old Diaper Genie (which they discontinued the refills for). This one holds about the same amount; I empty it twice a week. That's with a baby in size 1 diapers and a child wearing Pull-Ups. It is SO much easier to empty; open the door, click the top thing shut, pull it out and throw it away. I rarely smell the diapers, even when changing the refills. You pretty much have to use their refill bags, but I don't think they are very expensive. Only drawback for me is I have to order them online; they aren't stocked in my local store. Oh well. I recommend this over the Diaper Genie (although we had the twistaway one).

I got this pail for my sister when she had her baby. She LOVES it! She said it was small enough in size that it doesn't take up alot of room in the nursery, but big enough for lots of diapers. Also, with the optional baking soda capsul...there is no smell. The re-fills are priced decent too. I have a Diaper Geine II and I don't like it, the re-fills are expensive and you can smell the dirty diapers. Also, my girls like to open and close it themselves, and the cover broke. Do your research....you'll probably end up with this one!

I live in a pretty small apartment and I have never once smelled anything that was in the pail. There had even been times I had left my house for days, came back, still no smell! You can even fit more diapers in the pail then it probably says- you just have to open the door and push the diapers down- you'll never have to touch anything nasty. I have read reviews on here of people complaining that it is too loud, doesn't fit many diapers, and is too easy for older kids to get into. I disagree!
