Expensive – Great concept but ridiculous price for refill cassettes (25€ for 3) which are in essence simply bin bags! We will continue to use the bin but without replacing the cassettes going forward. Can buy nappy bags for a fraction of the price. If I had know the price of refills I would not have purchased this.

works but – The diaper pail works but be careful when you buy refills. They have designed them in such a way that although practically identical in all ways, the cartridges cannot be used between different systems. Particularly disappointing when the old cartridge is offered for sale in a display next to the new product.

Good – I got this as a gift before my son was born, I wouldn't have purchased one, but it is handy. I use it for poo nappies only to save a walk to the outside bin each time so it's been good to have. The refills are too expensive to use for wee nappies too. As mentioned above, the bin keeps the smell inside when the lid is closed, but when you open the… Read more

lid to put a new nappy inside the smell gets out and it's (of course) horrible! Emptying the bin requires a nose peg!! Would still recommend if you are prepared for the smell when lid is open and for expense of refills. I am still on my first roll of plastic and our son is nearly 7wks old (the bin has had to be emptied a few times, but you can just cut/rip the plastic and throw out the used part, then re-tie the plastic and keep using the same container). I only use it for poo nappies so 2 a day or so, but I'm happy I haven't had to re-fill the plastic wrap yet. easy to use hold your breath when you open the lid to put a nappy in - the smell is horrible it doesn't tend to keep the smell in the bin after you open the lid (but cannot smell anything with lid closed), refills are expensive

Terrible – overall it is a crap product and im not happy with it at all,i love tommee tippee products i have alot of them .i have been using them since i had my first child,now with my third baby i wanted to use more and new products,and found this one not very good...im hoping it was just a bad one made and maybe with a new one it will work the way its ment… Read more

to,but you guys will be the only ones to know for sure why this happened.im still going to buy your products but id like this one sorted as i really liked the idea of what it does and would like one that works properly,if possable....thank you...liz.... i thought it was a good way to store nappies without smell,germs ect...it looked like a good product. after using it i was very disappointed...it makes my daughters room smell...especially after you open the lid to put the next nappy in....even with the very first nappy going in makes it smell..and also when you put the nappy in and twist to close it,it doesnt twist properly,it opens up even if you keep twisting,it wont close most times....i thought it was ment to be a really good product,if i knew these things were going to happen i would have never bought one,you would thing paying almost $90 it would work really well.

Good – I bought this because I liked the convenience of it and didn't want to go to kitchen to put nappies in the bin each time(which don't contain the # 2 smell anyway), nor is it convenient to go to the large garbo bin each time I want to dispose of a nappy. I do wish the cassettes were more affordable and for this reason only I drop the rating to a… Read more

4/5. Otherwise very happy with the product. Quick and easy to dispose of nappy

Time saving - only need to take nappies to the bin once the tub is full.

Most smells are contained within the tub well.

Good height to reach down and place nappy in bin while changing baby on change table

Nice looking design, not an eye sore in the nursery

Easy to replace cassettes

If you run out of cassettes, works just as well to place nappy in alternative bags and push them through the chute, however normals bags don't contain smell as well as the cassette bags.

Easy to carry to garbage bin and tip bulk nappy's in. Very expensive. I only buy on bulk when on special.

Can get smelly when my baby has a bout of diareahha nappies so I will empty it half full during these periods.

Good – The nappy wrapper was most useful when in the newborn stage where you are changing nappies a lot but they don't take up much room. At that age you can fit a lot in the tub before you need to empty it and the cartridges last a while. As the baby and nappies get bigger it becomes more expensive to keep using it because of the cartridge cost. It… Read more

keeps the smell under control even in the hotest weather. It is easy to use and can be operated one-handed. The cartridges can be expensive if you are not purchasing them on sale.

Good – I am very happy with my Tommee Tippee Nappy wrapper, it has lasted 2 kids and the only thing that has broken was the inside flap which hasn't been an issue at all. Would recommend it any one including family as it makes life a little bit simpler when you have little ones. It keeps smell down to a minimum, able to store nearly a weeks worth of… Read more

dirty nappies, hygienic as your not handling dirty nappies too much, when disposing of nappies into the outside bin I have no fears that if the garbage truck tips over my bin that I have to pick up dirty nappies. Easy to use, closes securely to prevent little ones getting into it, not ugly that it looks like a bin. Cartages last a long time. Refill cartages are expensive if you aren't buying them on special.

Good – Glad I bought the Nappy Wrapper as its makes life easier being able dispose of nappies and wipes right next to my change table rather than having to take rubbish directly outside. Definately worth it. Easy to use, keeps smells at bay. Replace disk expensive however lasts ages.

Not impressed! – I got one of these second hand and now know why the person didn't use it anymore. It is small and while space wise that's good, it doesn't always even last the day! The inner flap comes apart all the time, the lid is heavy and the smell isn't really captured all that well. We now place nappies in scented nappy bags and just use it like a bin… Read more

without the cartridges. I wouldn't buy another nappy disposal unit unless someone I really trust suggested something fantastic.

Small, expensive refills, smells, top heavy

Bad – Not a product I would recomend. The refills dont last long & are expensive. I now use without tying each nappy off but placing them all in then tying off & discarding at the end of the day, makes the cartridges last longer. Once I have used all my refills I will be getting rid of it totally. Also it is top heavy so when carrying the top fell… Read more

off & smashed the lid. Keeps smell to a minimum expecially in hot weather. Very expensive to replace cartridges & they dont last very long.

Terrible – I wouldn't recommend this, its basically an overpriced bin. I ended up putting mine in storage and using nappy sacks instead, throwing the nappies in the normal bin since it got changed more often. The kids constantly wanted to play with it and it was a flop for us. An easy way to quickly get rid of your nappies. The extra bags are very… Read more

expensive. There is a part that sort of "catches" the nappy inside that broke within the first couple of weeks, it wasn't completely necessary but made it easier to use. I found myself emptying it pretty constantly as it didn't actually conceal all the smell once baby was on solids.

been using mine for 6.5yrs and counting – We love our tommee tippee nappy wrapper and are still using it with our third child! We still buy the refills and find it works amazingly at keeping away nasty smells. Even with one interior piece not working (it kept falling loose) it does fantastic. We love our bin and highly recommend it!

Terrible – I would not recommend this product. I was actually really disapointed with this product. In the end I used it as a bin with the lid off and wrapped my nappies in nappy sacks. Keeps nappies secure for overnight nappy changes. Quick and easy method of disposing nappies quickly and at point of changing. Expensive. The cartridges are expensive and do… Read more

not last long, especially when the child is older and has bigger and heavier nappies. Not odor free, can easily smell urine or fecal smell from bin when lid opened. Ineffective twising action of bags - bags should seal individually. Cutter is hard to use, I ended up just ripping the bags and tieing the ends

Fragile - handle with care – My mother dropped this bin and the lid shattered into pieces! It was an ok bin to use, however I found the cassette liners were just too expensive and therefore had to resort to using it as a normal bin in the end with nappy saks, which pretty much defeated the purpose of the bin in any event. I didn't find that it kept in the smells as much as… Read more

other bins on the market which promote the same things as this one. Therefore, overall I am glad the bin broke and I purchased another which was a much more practical and better buy. Good size Doesn't keep the smells in as much as others on the market, the lid isn't very strong.

Give it a miss – The idea of disposing of nappies, smell free and quickly is great but in reality it's probably not worth it. We bought one of these on special and it wasn't long before we realized we didn't really need it. The initial price is expensive and the cost of replacement bags is even more expensive plus the thing is big and bulky, it doesn't fit on the… Read more

change table and if I put it next to it the kids get into it hence why ours is now in storage waiting to see if my sisters want it when they have kids. Save your money and keep fit by bagging each nappy and taking it out to the rubbish bin! Keeps the nappy smell at bay Expensive, bulky, just not necessary

Terrible – Given the nappy wrapper the toss and I now use nappy sacks and walk them straight out to the wheelie bin. The odur that wafts out when you open the lid is horrible - I never did find that it neautrilises the odour. I used it a few times and noticed that the refills kept getter more expensive everytime. I would never ever recommend this… Read more

product to anyone. I did not find a lot that I liked about this product. Was the biggest waste of money that I spent on any of the baby products that I bought! Very expensive piece of junk.

OK – we got excited when we saw this product and bought it while it's on sale- it seemed to be on sale often, as the company probably make the money from selling the refill cartridges. put it this way, it is not a product you can't live without. keeps the odour out, which might be good if the weather is hot and the smell would be stronger, so you… Read more

don't need to take the rubbish out straight away. refill cartridges are very expensive, and does not last long at all!

Bad – We bought this thinking it was a great idea but a couple of months down the track, it has just turned into an expensive bin and we just use nappy bags which cost about $4 for 200 as opposed to the $18 or so for a new cassette. The only saving grace was that we got the tub cheap - I would be pretty upset if I had paid full price! I really would… Read more

think twice before buying this, or any nappy disposal product. Cuts down on smells. Easy to use. Refill cassettes are quite expensive

OK – This is a great Idea but needs a little improvement. The plastic should be biodegradable and they should make turning the handle easier one-handed. Having said that I will rpobably use it for the next one at least while it is a neborn and going through lots of little nappies Easy to use and contained smell well. Quite easy to empty By the time I… Read more

got to the bigger nappies I was going through the cases a lot quicker and ended up changing to the nappy sacks. Bit hard to do one handed and needed to wedge it against the wall with my foot to turn the dial.

OK – My hubby suggested that handsfree/foot lever would be ideal as more often than not you have your hands full with a wiggly bub. I also agree that the refill cartridges are too expensive for what they are.. (essential just a long plastic bag). Smart idea to keep easily keep nappies contained. No handsfree operation. Refill cartridge expensive.

Terrible – I only use it for pee, not for poop nappies. I wrap the nappies really well first and then I throw it in the bin and when it's full, I empty it. However, even if I use it for pee nappies only, when I lift the lid, the smell is very strong and it lasts for minutes. Maybe that it looks like a nursery item, so you'll have a garbage bin that fits in the decor. Can not capture odours, the whole room simply stinks.

Bad – Over i was fasinated by the idea of a nappy bin for change times that minimised odours and went out and bought the nappy bin on special. I bought one lot of refills that were quite pricy and once my son was about 3-4 months realised that i was wasting a fortune on the replacement bags as they are so expensive. great idea to wrap nappies and to… Read more

contain the odour instead of bagging nappies seperately and having to take them straight to the wheelie bin These are so expensive for the refill cartriges. Once your baby gets over 4 months old and the nappies are larger and your going through quite a few a day it becomes to expensive to keep buying the bags

OK – This is a pretty good nappy disposal system in that it is compact, minimises odours (well, so far at least), and easy enough to empty. Problems are that you can't use it with one hand which is a bit of a problem when you have a wriggly baby sitting on the change table that you need to keep a hand on and you have to insert your hand into the clean… Read more

part of the bin each time which is not that nice to do. I think I would prefer to use nappy sacks and toss them into a bin if I had to do it again as the refills are also quite pricey. Convenient Tricky to twist handle, not foot operated

OK – I bought the unit and refills on special so was not an expensive outlay. I used it a lot at the newborn stage when we were having very frequent pooey nappies and always changing baby on the change table in the nursery. Now he is nearly six months old and very wriggly, most of the nappy changes take place on the floor, not in the nursery. I find… Read more

it easier to just put the nappies straight into the main bin and avoid double handling. So overall I think it is a GOOD system, but a bucket and nappy sacks would work just as well and be much cheaper. Probably would not buy again. Great at the start when you are changing nappies every couple of hours, so you dont need to keep going to the bin. Compact unit, relatively easy to use. Expensive refills. Fills up very quickly. Cutting blade on my unit doesnt work properly.

Good – Would recommend this for the first six months because it is so handy and seals the smell in beautifully. I do not use it as they recommend - by twisting the plastic everytime you put a new nappy in, as it becomes too expensive, only to have all the nappies slide down to the one spot when you take the "noodle" out. I used to untwist it, but the… Read more

nappy in, and then re-twist the plastic, so you get a solid nappy pile (sausage) at the bottom, and not the cheerio effect (of lots of little sausages). Brilliant until baby starts solids, and then the whole plastic container starts to smell!! Try to borrow one. Extremely handy in the nursery - and a newborn baby uses SO many nappies!! No good after baby starts solids - due to the stool smell!!

Bad – If you look on ebay people are pretty much just trying to get rid of them because they are crap! I ended up just putting them in my regular bin in my kitchen because it was so grose to change the bin. I say dont bother with this one This is a great idea that hasnt been pulled off by tommee tippee. Great brand name. The idea is great but it smells… Read more

so bad when you change it that it nearly made me puke everytime i changed. The cartrages are way too expensive for just plastic that doesnt even hold the smell!!

OK – got this as a gift but would never buy it for myself as it is too expensive to replace the plastic bags, find it just as easy to get a nappy bag and throw it straight in the bin. quick and easy to dispose of nappies and holds the smell in cartiages are too expenise for plastic bags

OK – Easy to use & reduces the smell in the house. Cartidges are readily available to buy but also expensive. The smell of the nappy bin is revolting & makes emptying it a horrible job. But nappies smell, so either your bin smells, or your nappy bin smells. I'd rather change a nappy bin once a week than have my whole house stink. Great idea for those… Read more

in the country who don't have a garbage service or wheelie bins. Does eliminate the overall bad smell. Simple to use. Replacement cartridges are readily availble at most department stores. Great idea for me as I live in the country & don't have a garbage service or wheelie bin. No smell comes out, so it all must stay in! Changing the bin is revolting. I actually put bad nappies in scented nappy bags first which helps a little. But still a gag-worthy job. Very hard to get the bad smell out of the bin. Airing it outside is the best way. And disinfecting regularly. Replacement cartridges seem fairly expensive.

Excellent – I have one in the baby change room which is upstairs. It saves me a lot of running around and contains the odours very well. I am onto my second baby and have had no complaints - even my husband finds it easy and effective to use. It is obviously better for less smelly newborn nappies, but after solids introduction you switch to the heavier duty… Read more

bags and all is contained. The cartridges last ages - I'm on 3rd 1 and bub is 4.5mths (+night nappy of toddler) & can be picked up in boxes of 4 for price of 3 easily. I empty base once a week most weeks. I love mine, it is so simple & effective. Best for Newborns through to introduction of solids... but can be used afterwards. Saves me a walk to otto bin every poopy nappy.

OK – We bought this for our first child as the idea that it would contain the smells was very appealing and it worked pretty well however every time I had to empty the bin and the plastic wrap unravelled I felt so guilty that there was almost a third as much again in plastic that didn't contain nappies. The double twist after each nappy sealed in the… Read more

Terrible – I don't think I needed to buy this. I think a normal bin that can be sealed and the cheap plastic scented nappy bags do the same job. I think this is a waste of money and the refills are a rip off. Great idea to store nappies hygienically and stop bad smells. Good reliable brand. Probably the best know and most popular of all nappy bins. The… Read more

refills are too expensive. By the time you've bought a few refills you've nearly bought the whole bin again. We ended up just using it as a normal bin and buying the cheap plastic scented nappy bags instead. It still worked well as it's an airtight bin stopping all odours. It was too expensive to keep buying refills and you use them so quickly too.

Terrible – Very expensive. Not what it used to be. I would only recommend this product to those people I didn't like. I would recommend you use nappy sacks and toss them in the wheely bin. Some time ago the refills used to be a resonable quality(thickish plastic with an odour neutralising scent). Now the quality has gone and they are just trying to make as… Read more

much money as they can (which is a lot if you continue to use this system). The plastic they now use is as thin as tissue paper and the smell of dirty nappies is no longer neutralised. Once you open the lid which is every time you change bub you better hold your breath or you'll be cleaning up spew as well.

Good – I like the product cause it locks in all the smells that you dont want to have in the nursery room but the down side is refill is too expensive but if you think about it 1 refill can last for about 3 weeks or more depends on baby i usually put the number 2 in the tomee tippee bin and the number 1 just in the regular bins but would recomend you… Read more

buying one from ebay or borrowing it from someone you know dont pay full retail price as i did it's not worth paying alot for. the most I like about the bin is that it locks in all the bad smell from the number 2 hate it when i just finished changing my baby and i have to put the nappy in the bin and stand there trying to twist and push down the nappy it just takes too much time when i could of been just chucking it in the normal bin refills are very expensive

OK – I wouldn't recommend buying one to anyone I know. If they thought they would like to try it anyway, I'd just give them mine because it just sits in the corner of the nursery collecting dust. Saves a trip to the bin every time you change a nappy, which seems good in theory at the beginning when you are changing nappies every few hours. It sits in… Read more

the corner collecting dust. Even at the beginning, it was easier to just walk to the kitchen bin and empty it every day.

Good – I found these really convenient. They kept most of the smell out, I put bi carb soda in the bottom which helps with the smell. And keep nappy bags and if it is a really smelly nappy I use them or change it straight away. It does need to be changed every day, but I do all our bins every day so no big deal. I found it really great, especially at… Read more

first when you're changing nappies all night. So convenient, especially when you have a toddler and can't just pop the baby down The refills are expensive and use SO much more plastic than you think they would have to. Has to be bad for the environment
