The Diaper Champ is at Babies R Us--barely has any odor whatsoever! I've been very happy with it.

This diaper champ may be my next big baby purchase then! The diaper genie in our basement (we have 2-- one on top floor with bedrooms, one in basement where the playroom is) is broken... I think it was broken when we bought it, but oh well... Also, I never have invested in the Stage 2 diaper genie refills-- this would probably help but they are so much more expensive!

Where do you buy the Diaper Champ? Does it keep out odor? I tried a diaper pail that used regular trash bags, but it didn't twist them off or anything and so it really didn't help with the stink

You can get one at Babies R Us. We have had one for 2 1/2 years. It does a pretty good job. Our problem is the there is a foam liner in the top, and the other day it fell out, and it is making it hard for us to flip the lid. I am trying to decide if I should break down and replace it, because Brigham will be almost 3 before we have another child. It's so tempting to hold out, and purchase one when we have the money in a year.

I couldn't survive without my double jogger stroller (if only they made a triple)--

Triple joggers exist, they are expensive. I have a friend who is expecting number three. Her hubby is in Matt's program, and wants to get one.
