I always used grocery sacks in my diaper pails.
Dose it keep the smell out the same when you use grocery sacks?
No diaper pail or sacks keep the smell out, in my opinion. I love using the grocery sacks because I'm recycling something that would otherwise not be used for any other purpose.
We use grocery sacks to clean our cats litter box. LOL.
Yeah, we use it for that, too!
I would get a diaper pail that doesn't have to be used with special bags, it is a waste of money. I like the diaper champ, it is pretty good at keeping the smell in (until you introduce solids) and you can use garbage bags in it.
Once solids are given to a baby the poop smells so bad no pail can contain it lol.
The one we registered for and got from babies r us was one that you can use any tall kitchen/trashbag in. I definitely didn't want something that I had to use 'special' refills for! I can't remember the name or brand right now...but maybe you can try using the regular (smaller) sized trash bags.
