Ubbi Steel Odor Locking Nappy Disposal Bin, No Special Bag Required Money Saving, Awards-Winning, Modern Design Registry Must-Have Diaper Pail, White

Product Information

When choosing a nappy bin, you have to look for one with a child lock feature to make sure your little one won’t get hold of his/her dirty nappies. It can be operated with one hand – simply drop the nappy into the bin, rotate the top with the handle, and the nappy will fall into the bag, all without breaking the seal and releasing smelly odours. Metal bins, though more expensive, will be more effective at trapping odours than plastic bins, which are porous and can absorb odours. This also means you don’t have to leave your baby as often or have to go out to your bin on a dark, rainy, and cold evening. Weaning usually begins at six months, so you may find that your nappy bin becomes less useful when your baby is anywhere between eight and 14 months.

A versatile, eco-friendly alternative to a nappy bin, this machine-washable wet bag from Bambino Mio is fully waterproof thanks to the tapered seams and 100% laminated polyester. According to Tommee Tippee, the manufacturer of our top ranked nappy bin, each refill cassette should last around three to four weeks. While it isn’t the biggest nappy bin on our list, it can still hold up to 28 nappies, meaning fewer trips to your outside bin. Every purchase also includes 6 Snap, Seal, and Toss bags and 1 Starter Ring Refill, which is said to be enough for a whole month.Newborns need changing as frequently as 10 or 12 times a day, while older babies need to be changed at least six to eight times a day – although there are always exceptions to every rule. So by using a nappy bin, you can effectively trap the bad smell and prevent it from lingering around your home. For some nappy bins like the Ubbi Steel Diaper Pail, they can still let out foul smells when opened. We have one in our bedroom and there’s no smell at all, even with multiple dirty nappies sat in there for several days. The Ubbi Nappy Disposal Bin isn’t a cheap option, but it’s won several design awards and comes in several different colours – including Sage Green, Blush Pink, Chrome, Marble, Woodgrain and Slate – so there’s sure to be something to match your home decor.

Some people also said that the plastic itself picks up odours and starts to smell after a while, meaning it may not be the longest lasting bin out there. Little to no maintenance is required for them, just the need to replace the refill cassettes from time-to-time.The Sangenic is a rather simple and straightforward nappy bin; instead of sealed compartments and trapdoors, the Sangenic simply wraps each diaper individually in a multi-layer, odour-blocking antibacterial film before depositing them into the big. The bin actually has three different seals to trap in odours: a rubber seal around the lid, a seal around the trap door, and the plastic liner that contains the nappies themselves.

It is made of durable and sturdy plastic, and can hold up to 30 diapers before needing to be emptied. How often you empty a nappy bin is a personal choice, of course, and you may opt to empty it on a daily basis. Now, with that many nappies, can you just imagine how bad your home will smell without a proper disposal area? If you’re using disposable nappies, then nappy bins are particularly useful if you live in a flat or an upside-down house, with the living area on the top floor, as it can be more difficult to get to an outside bin during middle-of-the-night nappy changes.This fantastic nappy bin uses powder-coated steel to maximize odour containment, comes in a range of stylish colours and patterns, and can be used with standard bin bags or more specialised nappy bags. However, as a general rule, it’s a good idea to empty your nappy bin at least every three days to minimise the risk of nasty smells emitting from the bin when you open it. Yes it smells when you open the lid to put a nappy in, but that only lasts a few minutes and TBH the room smells when a toddler has just pooed in it, regardless of how the nappy is disposed of.

Another feature we like about the Creative Baby Tidy Diaper Pail is its piston system, which provides the extra push you need to prevent your child’s nappies from getting stuck when deposited. Once your baby is eating more, instead of fairly inoffensive milky poos (whether breast- or bottle-fed), you might find the need to get the nappy out of the house ASAP.If you want to match your nappy bin to your nursery colour scheme, that shouldn’t be a problem as there are three colour options: Apple Green, Cool Blue and Stone Grey. Mumsnetters on our forums have a top tip for keeping nasty smells at bay (look away now if you’re squeamish).
