Love it for the price!
Our old diaper pail broke. So I got this one. It can hold a bit of diapers. It also locks the smell pretty well. I added a few of the order pucks on the bottom which helps. This pail can also use the up&up bag refills which is nice!
Dont buy it

Gets the job done
Gets the job done but it doesn’t hold that many diapers. It also requires that diapers be pushed down vs just dropped in which is a little gross

Gross design
I should’ve researched this more. It does mask odor, but you have to push the diaper through quite forcefully whereas with our old diaper genie, you step on the lever, it opens, you drop the diaper in, and it closes behind it. With this one, your hand ends up touching the plastic liner and smelling like whatever it and the diaper smells like. We’ve had it for two days and I’m on this site right now looking for another one.

I Regret this purchase
So upset I purchased this. The lid rarely stays closed unless you keep trying many times. The bigger pail pushes the diaper down when you close the lid, this one you have to shove your hand with a soiled diaper (and dirty wipes) through the small hole so it will seal. Don’t buy!

The best
Wish I bought this model for my first. This holds way more diapers than any other munchkin diaper pail they offer. It’s small but is wider which allows for more diapers. Locks in odor & you can't beat the price.

NO ODOR CONTROL
This is the most disgusting diaper pail we have ever had! The smell is outragious and the diaper pail has no control over it what so ever! It is a waste of money if you are considering to buy this based on it's claimes that are lies!

Not worth it (even at a great price)
I purchased this diaper pail because of the price. I didn’t want to spend as much because my toddler is starting to potty train (and kinda figured it wouldn’t be worth it to buy another expensive pail when we wouldn’t use it as often), but, I should’ve just spent more. You have to push (hard!) on the dirty diaper to get it into the can, which isn’t fun (especially with a messy diaper). I wish I could return this, but I’m probably just stuck with this now.

Terrible design
This is a poorly made diaper pail. The bottom is very fragile and doesn't sit well together. It doesn't do a great job with odor control either. I have the other Muchkin PAIL for the nursery which is great. I bought the FLEX as a second diaper pail for my office/play area, and it's disappointing.

Fantastic Diaper Pail
I purchased this pail because it was affordable and I was sick of leaving diapers in a grocery bag while I was staying at a family member’s home. This is my favorite of *multiple* diaper pails I’ve used. I feel like most of the complaints coming from people about pushing the diapers through the top aren’t folding up their diapers - if they were, they wouldn’t be complaining. I’ve never had a single issue with even blowout diapers. The only pail I recommend to my pregnant friends!

Don't waste your money
I wouldn’t spend your money on this trashcan. You have to push very hard on the diapers to go down. And it doesn’t even mask the smell of the diapers which is the whole point of a trashcan.

Do not buy it
Don’t buy it! You have to push down hard the diaper through the hole. Your hands can get dirty if the diaper is really messy.

Aesthetically Pleasing Diaper Pail
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In the 24 months that I’ve been a new mom I never owned a diaper pail, boy was I missing out. I love the ease and control of the pail as well as the amount of dirty diapers it holds. Its easy to open even if you have your hands full.

Great diaper pail
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We received this product in exchange for our honest review. We love the simple design of this diaper pail. The lid is easy to use one-handed (much easier than our hand-me-down munchkin diaper pail, which is now no longer sold). I think the design is very functional and fits our needs well. It keeps in odors well, though the smells do escape when the pain is full full. The amazing thing about munchkin diaper pails is that they are great quality and will last for multiple babies/can be passed down to other families (like with our previous munchkin pail that were handed down). I'd recommend this product to anyone looking for a simple, durable diaper pail.

Better than others!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the FLEX diaper pail! I recently had my third baby and have tried countless other diaper pails and this one is the best. Holds all odor in so there is no smell in the room! Really easy to use and to refill the bag. It's really great I highly recommend!
