Amazon.com Review
When dealing with a young baby or squirming toddler at diaper changing time, the last thing you need is a diaper pail that requires two hands. The Diaper Champ helps eliminate hassle—and odor—by providing convenient one-hand operation for quick disposals.
Even better is that this wondrous device takes regular garbage bags. There is no need to constantly buy brand name refills because the Champ can use the typical tall kitchen sack, plus grocery or most other plastic bags. Aside from the use of regular bags making it the economical choice, this feature also makes the Champ more flexible. While diapers will no doubt be the most thrown away item, this pail can also accommodate wipes, cotton swabs, tissues, and other baby essentials.
Functionality is simple: drop a diaper (or other trash) into the pail’s top receptacle and flip the handle. To empty, just unlock the top and remove the bag. Standing about two feet high, the Diaper Champ’s capacity is on par or larger than many of its competitors, usually only requiring a bag change once a week.
But the true test of any diaper pail is its smell control, right? Most moms we polled claimed the Champ the hands-down winner, and only a few had occasional escaped odors after 18+ months of use. Once toddlers have been introduced to solid foods using scented bags can help fight off any excess pail smell. Another great tip for keeping the Champ fresh is to quickly spray it down with a disinfectant when changing bags.
Editorial Review
In this corner... it's the Diaper Champ. Standing a bit taller than the competition, this wondrous contraption actually uses regular garbage bags, making it super economical (no refills, hooray!). It also holds a few more diapers than other pails we've tried. To use it, simply drop a diaper in and flip the handle. To empty it, just unlock it and remove the bag. But the true test of a diaper pail is its smell control, right? Overall, most moms thought that the Champ deserved its title, and only a few detected an occasional escaped odor or two. It is a bit difficult to open (hint: take it slow), but for those of you with a curious and experimental toddler in your house, this may be okay. --Melissa Wilson

Does not work well with washable diaper pail liners
I bought the Diaper Champ with the understanding that it worked well with both cloth or disposable diapers - I'm planning to use cloth. I'm also using washable diaper pail liners (WAHMIES), and to my disappointment, I could not get the liners to work with the Diaper Champ. The liners were too bulky for it to close tightly. So I returned the Diaper Champ and ended up getting a Smart Can corner trash bin, which works fine (though the quality seems rather cheap, and it will undoubtedly not contain smells as well as the Diaper Champ). Just a head's up to those planning on using washable liners.
Perfect after replacing top piece
When I first got my Diaper Champ, I had problems similiar to other reviewers - the blue ring got stuck every time I flipped the lid over. I had to tuck the blue ring back into to it's slot to keep it from getting hung up as the mechanism swiveled around. It was very frustrating. I called the company I told them about my problem. I had no receipt because I got it for a shower present. They sent me a new replacement for the entire top of the Diaper Champ at no cost. Now it works perfectly. I gave the product four stars for the hassle of having a defective product initially. However, I was very pleased with the no questions asked customer service. I love that I can use shopping bags and don't have to buy special bags for it.
Stinky!
I am very disappointed with this diaper pail, I don't find that it contains the smell at all. It is especially bad when you flip the top to put a new diaper in. I actually took it out of my daughters room because I didn't want her to sleep in a poopy smelling room. I would not buy this product again and I would definitly not recommend it to anyone else.
