Angelcare Nappy Disposal System AC2000

Hi everyone...I picked this one based on the reviews that I have read and I have nothing but great things to say about it.Very easy to assemble...those that say its not obviously have no common sense...and then didn't think to pick up the instructions. If I can do it, trust me, anyone can. Very easy to empty and contains all smells brilliantly.To be honest, it just makes sense to have one in reach of the changing area and it means that everything is as simple as it can be when changing your little one, no separate bags, no thinking to have to make an extra trip to the bin incase its a potent one and it holds so many nappies that it only needs emptying every four days ish. The cartridges aren't that expensive based on how long they last (weeks) in comparison to how many nappy bags you'd go through to contain the smell in the same way, and the system itself is so cheap and doesn't look out of place in a nursery.Thank you very much for making this a brilliant, simple and sensible thing to have.

Ill admit, my wife bought one of these from a different store and when i seen it, i thought it would be useless and a money racket when it comes to refills.Well, I am now eating my words as i went and bought another. They are amazing, keeps the smell at bay and holds a lot of nappies. The refills are cheap based on how long they last and you can get them in boots and most chemists.We have twins and easily change 15-20 nappies a day. So putting that many into the kitchen bin or black bin is just asking for a smelly time. You pop the lid open and push the nappy and forget about it until you cant fit anymore in, easily open and tie and cut and the big sausage of air tight smell is put in the outside bin.

Our new born is breastfeeding and although the nappies are not particularly smelly, you can tell when they have been filled with baby poo!This bin is good for locking in the smells of the dirty nappies with its clam shell like contraption inside even with the top lid open.In terms of operation, there is no need to twist the nappies like some other brands, but simply open the top lid and push the dirty nappy through the clam shell mechanism which then closes and 'eats' the nappy. The bin liner automatically feeds out of the dispenser as you push the nappy through and the entire operation can be done with one hand.Here are some precautions to think about before buying:I can see some people may not like the feel of pushing the nappy and their hand through the clam shell mechanism particularly as a dirty nappy is just on the inside, but I personally have not felt that it is unhygienic as new bin liner is being fed through each time. That being said, I still wash my hands each time.The bin is not tall so requires some stooping over if it is placed on the floor. I have it on a side table so it is higher up.Even though the bin is inexpensive, the liners are not particularly cheap. I hope to be able to update this review later with how many we are using.At this time, I am happy with this bin, but I will try to update this review as the nappies become larger and smellier.Update:I could no longer fit any more nappies in the bin and opened it up ready to remove the contents. There is a very handy bin liner cutter inside the bin which I did not know about so I put the scissors down which I had already retrieved. I counted 24 dirty new born nappies inside, this was the absolute limit that I could fit.Making the bin ready again was easy enough. Pull some of the liner out and pull it across the cutter. Iie up the end of the used section and tie up the new end of the liner and you are ready for the next batch of nappies.

Don't be put off by the price of this thing, it really is worth every penny. I have a two year old daughter and a son on the way and this bin has been a loyal and faithful companion from day one. Nappies are an inevitability of child rearing and lets be honest, your entire house can end up smelling of them if you don't have a sealed container to put them in. This bin fulfils that function wonderfully, a spring loaded arm keeps the bag tightly sealed and once inside even the most toxic, nostril assaulting nappy can't bother you. Also don't worry about the price of the refills, once you get the hang of it you can make a single cartridge last about two months and you get three in a pack. Do however avoid the dodgy third party refills, they're awful and the bags rip when you lift them out of the bin. The bin itself is well built and tough enough to withstand the rigours of daily life, after two years heavy use ours is still life new. Size wise it's quite small and unobtrusive, quite easy to hide in a nursery. The mechanism is also good for keeping little fingers out.
