I use the 28-30 nappy sized bin. Basically you pop used nappies through the window in the top, twist the inner lid and the nappy is held inside a special liner. When you empty the bin you find a long line of nappies wrapped in the liner that resembles a link of sausages. I'm glad I didn't opt for the next size up, as this smaller one is quite a weight to lug around when you empty it out. I think its a great system with only a couple of drawbacks. As other writers have said, the prongs that hold the nappy sack are very liable to come away when you empty the bin - and recovering them (if you notice) involves hunting through bin bag full of soiled nappies. This is a very bad thing. Once you have bought the bin the on-going costs are the rolls of liners you slot in. These are very reasonably priced, around £3. Each time you empty the bin, you use the internal cutter and seperate the liner from the continuing roll. This cutter does take a bit of getting used to, and doesn't seem to cut that cleanly. Once you have removed the full nappies (in their sausage link) you pull more of the liner out of the holder, tie it off and start again. (Its far easy to use than to describe!) Eventually your liner roll with run out and need replacing. There is no indication that this is about to happen, so all you can do it make sure you have a spare roll at ALL times. A finally note of warning, when you replace the liner roll you MUST keep hold of the yellow ring that acts as part of the funnel for the liner. This ring looks as if it is part of the liner roll, but it isn't. You only get the one yellow ring, so don't loose it or the system is useless. There probably is still a slight smell, but I think it is far better than other alternative I have seen advertised anywhere.

We were going to buy one of these but never did. Actually I'm pleased that we didn't. Wet nappies go into Nappy Sacks then into the bin in his room, dirty ones go straight outside. Gwen

I will give this a VH, as what more can you say about a nappy bin?? One word of warning though, we abandoned ours after a few months as the residual STINK built up to a pitch that could not be lived with, now we're happy with our nappysacks! Cazz xx
