I'm VERY impressed by this Diaper Genie Platinum Pail, which was gifted to me as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. The design is beautiful - I love the color, the size, and the set-up. It's so thoughtfully made and easy to assemble. We had another pail, which was metal and was not as hygienic - it often smelled and I did not enjoy using it. My husband and I cannot get over how much better this option is. The pail itself stays cleaner, the design is SO much better with the foot petal (so you don't have to touch anything) and the flaps inside (so you don't smell the diapers and so the diapers aren't touching any part of the pail), and there are extra details like a carbon fiber packet to collect odor. If you're going to buy a diaper pail, this is ABSOLUTELY the one to go with.
