    All the reasons why we decided to get an ubbi. I was able to get it for less at bed bath and beyond by using the $20 off a purchase of $75 coupon and it qualified for free shipping!

    9 months in with the ubbi! Had first smell issue only in the last few days. Gave it a scrub on the inside and it should be good to go! Amazon also runs a sale every so often on it. We also use regular kitchen bags.

    Prior to having our baby we used it for our puppy pads while we were still living in an apartment and this thing could hold a week's worth (I know it's gross but taking out trash was rough) of dirty puppy pads without emitting any smell! 10/10 recommend. Also found ours at Burlington for like 40 bucks

I’ve watched pretty much every one of your videos and love your channel! Thanks for the awesome content 😁

      @melodygoad9146 3 роки тому +1

      @@lynettelike1781 so funny that you commented this because we actually just finished fully potty training our little girl! The answer is it depends on the age. About twice a week as a newborn then about once a week after that. Less and less as time goes on. It holds a surprising amount! I will say after 2.5 years of use it does develop some odor retention but that's from the plastic sealing ring. Just wrap the lid and ring the bags go through in newspaper for 24hrs and the odor dissipates. We totally recommend it still! We love it 😊

    At first I thought it was insane to go buy a $70 diaper trash can but I did my research on it and plenty of people seemed happy, so I went ahead and splurged. It truly does it’s job, just like you said in the video, so for anyone out there looking for a pail I strongly recommend it. At least, consider stainless steel instead of plastic it WILL keep your nursery smelling like your baby and NOT his/her smelly diapers.

  • @Shamrockin89
    @Shamrockin89 6 років тому +1

    I agree 100% it seems more expensive at first and I’m kicking myself for not looking into this one first. We received a diaper genie for our shower and it actually broke a few months in plus I didn’t like that there is a blade to cut off their bags with. I can especially appreciate that you can use your own trash bags which means no blades or no accidentally running out of the refills. Going back to the blade though I never thought of it til Natalie Bennett told in a video how her son cut his tongue on the blade so that was one of the final reasons we didn’t just buy another diaper genie

    Our first baby is due in a couple weeks but we have two special needs dogs who both uses diapers so we were super excited when this item was purchased off our registry. After a week of the diaper genie use I've noticed the smell leaks and was disappointed. I can only imagine the smell when the baby comes. Will be exchanging the refills for the ubbi asap.

We're going on #2 now and it looks like Diaper Genie's downgraded significantly. I'll admit, I've gotten a little overwhelmed by the way baby products have changed, but thankfully I thought to see if someone on YT reviewed these kinds of things! XD Thanks for comparing them, its helped make this decision easier. :D

  • @meowmi1130
    @meowmi1130 6 років тому

    Ubbi is probably the most popular diaper in recent years but I heard from other parents that their Ubbi container developed an odor in the long term. Please keep us posted how it goes after a year or so. I currently have the Prince Lionheart Twist'R which has a pretty awesome design to block the smell but since the baby is not here yet I can't tell how good it really is. Also, it is $99 plus the costs for exclusive trash bags which makes it more expensive than any the other options available in the market right now.

    • @dadverb
      @dadverb  6 років тому

      Ours has yet to develop an odor and we've used it for about a year. My main complaint is that since it does a great job at containing odors, when it comes time to change out the bag, the smell comes pouring out and it's excruciating, lol. The smell lingers in the room for a moment before dissipating. I still like our Ubbi, but I'd love to test the Twist'R. Looks like great option and very well designed.

  • @IcedCupcakes
    @IcedCupcakes 6 років тому

    Ubbi is great! I just wish they would come out with a bigger sized pale for cloth diapers since cloth diapers are bulkier and this size only stores about 1-2 days worth of one child in a diaper. Cloth diaper users normally wash every 3-4 days so yeah. Diaper Dekor makes a good decent size but the design isn't as sleek as Ubbi, it literally looks like a normal trash can, not as nice to keep in the nursery in my opinion.

    I've been looking in options for cat litter. I have had the litter locker before but it was a long time ago and I don't whether or not I found it worked very well. I also was curious of a diaper one would serve the same purpose but be made better quality and cheaper in the long run. I had never heard about the ubbi until today when I started researching. This was a great review. And I'm surprised that the system that doesn't temporarily seal the bag as you go blocked the smell better than the diaper genie types. Still researching, but this one seems cool. Just looking for where to get in canada.

    @morgan0179 6 років тому

    We were not going to go the diaper pail route, but we're gifted one. So we had to scramble in our research of these. After talking to friends with kids we gleaned this wisdom:
    Babies diapers don't smell that bad until they start eating more solid food. And even then, they aren't that bad until they're eating "normal human food" like off your plate. So we've decided not to actually use our diaper genie until we get to that point. At this point we are just hanging plastic bags on the door knob to the nursery and disposing of the diapers that way. (Woody is only a few weeks old...)
    I do like the idea of being able to use any bag with this Ubbi, as well as the fact that it locks!

    if a 3 pack refill lasts you a month, you are not using it correctly... ONE refill lasts for 290 diapers!!! it lasts about a month! I bought one of those 3 packs about 2 months ago when my baby was born and I still have 2 left (I used the one that came with the pail and one of the pack).. The diaper genie works GREAT if you know how to use it!

      It fit plenty when the baby was a newborn but by 6-8 months, that wasn't the case. Most reviewers on Amazon, even positive, have claimed similar. At most, 1 pack would last around 10 days. See here: amzn.to/2sUpXpd

      Handy trick and quite useful, but realistically, I think a majority of parents aren't taking the time to do that and stay as efficient as you. You're doing a great job at maximizing bag usage. For us, we're looking for the path of least resistance and eliminating revolving cost. Also, I think DG just let us down at locking smells.
