Diaper bins and accessories

Children are a joy in parents' everyday life, but they also contribute with less delightful remnants several times throughout the day. Changing diapers is an unavoidable part of being a parent, and it doesn't necessarily spread a pleasant smell in the bathroom when the diaper is simply thrown in the trash can.

Many might think that a diaper bin is unnecessary, but once you get your hands on one, you can't live without it. It eliminates odors and bacteria, and overall it makes life easier as a parent.

However, a diaper bin can be many things, so it's about choosing the right one when you look. Below you can get an idea of which diaper bins are on the market based on the requirements you may have for a diaper bin.

How to choose the right diaper bin

There are some considerations that you can benefit from making before you buy your first diaper bin. There are incredibly many different models on the market, and sometimes it’s the small things that make all the difference.

The wide selection can make it difficult to navigate the advantages and disadvantages among the many models, but since no two families are alike, it's necessary that the selection is large if everyone is to have the opportunity to meet their needs.

It's always a good idea to look at which diaper bins have performed best in tests. It’s not enough to know which will best meet the need you have, but it gives an overview of the best on the market as well as an overview of advantages and disadvantages.

This makes it easier for you to get closer to what you are looking for.

Should the bin be hidden away or left out?

Functionality is clearly the most important aspect of a diaper bin, but you will never be completely happy with it if it has to be left out and it has an ugly appearance. It's clear that many might choose a nicer bin in case it should be left out, but the price is also important to keep in mind here.

A nice bin will often be a bit more expensive than a plastic bin where appearance has not been prioritized.

It's also important that you think about where the diaper bin should be placed. If it’s on a floor with underfloor heating, make sure the bag is lifted off the floor, as otherwise it makes the smell unbearable.

What need should the diaper bin satisfy?

The diaper bin should be tailored to your needs and your feelings regarding diaper changes. While some are completely indifferent to the smell, others can hardly open the diaper - it's important to keep this in mind when you buy a diaper bin.

If you have difficulty with odors, you might want to look for diaper bins that wrap the diaper in film. These models are virtually odor-free, and the mess is limited. They are also more expensive - both in purchase and in operation, as they require some special bags.
