Playtex Diaper Genie Mega Giveaway (15 Winners!)

October 31, 2012

A lot has changed since I had my first child in 2004.  One of the biggest products then was a new(er) product on the market – the Diaper Genie.  I remember my mom and even my older sisters scoffing at the idea of a diaper disposal system. “Diapers belong in the garbage,” they would tell me.  It makes perfect sense for us disposal diapering parents, but if you’ve ever opened a garbage at the end of the day with even just “pee” diapers inside, you know that the odor isn’t pretty, and certainly doesn’t belong under your kitchen sink.

And so, we used the Diaper Genie with our first, and my husband and I joked about the sausage-roll-of-diapers as we called it when I was time to empty it.

Then our second…and third…children came around and we got lazy.  We started tossing diapers one by one in plastic shopping bags onto the deck.  And then we started tossing them in the kitchen garbage.  Or the bathroom garbage.  Oh yeah, we’ve totally slacked (third child coping mechanisms I suppose).  So, given the opportunity to check out the Diaper Genie Elite system once again, 8 years later, I figured why not!

We’ve had our new Playtex Diaper Genie Elite in our home this week and are getting used to one-stop diaper disposal again.  The bags inside are odor-free, for the most part, but I still don’t like having to empty the unit myself and leave that as one of my husband’s tasks.  Still, if you want to have an easy place to dispose of your diapers and not have them sitting on your back step or deck until someone decides to take the garbage to the curb, this system might be worth a try!

Here are the details of this awesome contest:

  1. 15 of my Canadian readers are going to win a Playtex Diaper Genie Elite (ARV $45.99 each)
  2. THEN, of those 15 winners – they will be invited back to leave a review on their own experience with the Diaper Genie Elite.
  3. From those reviews, one of them will be randomly chosen to win a $50 Babies R Us gift card!  Fun, right?  If you’ve ever wanted to review an item, and post it to share with others, my site will be that spot!

So, the first step is to win one of these systems!  To enter to win 1 of 15 Playtex Diaper Genie Elite systems, use the Rafflecopter form below!  Good luck everyone!

  • I’m expecting my first child in January and this would be a great win for my husband and I 🙂

  • I’d like one of these so we don’t gag when we go to our daughter’s house to babysit her new guy 😉

  • I have a baby due at the end of the month and I do not have a Diaper Genie. I would love to try it out.

  • With a 1 month old & 13 month old i would definitely love to try this out with the amount of diapers i go through in a day 🙂

  • Would love to try this as I have 2 toddlers and a new baby on the way. I don’t want my toddlers getting into the diaper pail:)

  • I would love to try this as its our first child, were going to be in a small apartment for who knows how long, and in the middle of winter I don’t want to be running diapers out the building to the dumpster!

  • I would like to try the Diaper Genie Elite system because my sister had an older version and she loved it!

  • I have a baby and dayhome kids that creat a huge amount of dirty diapers in a day that my current diaper pail cannot handle! So I would love to win a genie that would handle the smell that is created in one days time!

  • I’ve had my eyes on one of these for awhile. Its my go to baby gift, but for some reason I don’t have one myself!

  • I have a 5 month old and am really not looking forward to him starting solids. I think we could really use a diaper genie for that!

  • Since we’re TTC we would love to try one of these out since we’ve love to be as clean as possible when changing diapers, ha ha ha ha!!

  • I’d like to see….can this really hide the smell of those poopy diapers, it is user friendly? I’de like to find out. 🙂

  • we had one when my sister had her baby, that was 10 years ago. i want to see how they have improved since then

  • I would just love to gift one of these to a friend who just had their first baby, I am sure they don’t own one and these seem awesome!

  • I would love to win this for my cousin. She is expecting her first baby and needs everything!

  • Oh such a great gift. One niece had her baby boy yesterday and the other niece is due in the new year. Again, a SUPER gift for one of them !

  • I am used to the old pail and solution mixture to soak cloth diapers once they were rinsed so this would be
    great to try

  • I would like to try out and leave a review because with two kids in diapers at home, I found that it really stink in the bedroom and I have to constantly empty the garbage bin in the bedroom and leave them out in our garage …

  • My LO’s are day-trained now (yippee!) but alas we’re still at the diapers at night stage with both of them. For whatever reason, their morning diapers are pretty darn foul… I’d love to be able to contain the smell a bit (so our poor main bath is usable without a close pin.

  • I would love to try the Playtex Diaper Genie! My little one goes through a lot of diapers in one day, & it would be wonderful to contain the diapers (and the smell…lol). Thank you for this great giveaway! Fingers crossed:)

  • Love mine that I have and would love to win as they make great baby gifts or we could use another one in our house as we change diapers both up and downstairs and are also hoping for another baby before our first one is out of diapers! There is always a use for such a wonderful product!

  • I’d love to try one of these out as I just ran out of liners for our old one and they can’t be bought anymore that I can find anyways. Our house is getting stinky!! lol

  • I currently bag the dirty diapers and throw them on the deck ,to be put in a garbage bag outside, would love to review
    thanks

  • I’d love to try one of these. We’ve used the older version, and it’s been pretty good so far.

  • I’m a cloth diapering mom, but as Carter is growing and things are getting more…stinky. I would prefer to start disposables and the diaper genie seems like a great way to keep the stench out.

  • I hate poopy diapers SO much. I can clean them up but the smell…. I would rather clean a litter box

  • I don’t have the elite, but I do have a diaper genie and I wouldn’t recommend to any new parent to be without one. But I sure could use a second one. One for the nursery and one for the bathroom.

  • I had one for my children years back and I would love to win one for my sister for her baby

  • I would love to win one because I just throw diapers out in the outside garbage- it’s getting cold, would love to make that trip just once a week or so!

  • I’d love to try this because I babysit my nephew all the time and don’t have one in my home. I hate having to take the garbage out every single day!

  • This is gonna sound weird..but I would like one for my kitty cats litter,,lol,,that gets pretty smelly too when cleaning the litter box every day and putting it in bags and the garbage,,Im guessing this would serve the same purpose for kitty litter as diapers?! 🙂

  • I used to have the first Diaper Genie when it first came out. You know, the old-school one! I would love to try this one and see the difference, especially with baby #3 in the works 😉

  • I am just beginning to feed my daughter solid food, so we have many stinky diapers coming our way!

  • With a 3 month old in the house we will be going through lots of diapers yet and right now they get tossed in bathroom garbage or kitchen garbage.

  • I’d love to try this out because my sister in law is having her first baby soon and she’s staying with us. We usually only have to take a bag of garbage out once a week sometimes once every two weeks. Would be nice to have somewhere for the stinky diapers to sit until the bags ready to be taken out.

  • there’s only one garbage bin in our house, and its in the kitchen…so when we dump diapers..the smell during dinner..argh!

  • I’d love to win a Diaper Genie system – our first is on the way and we were looking at them at Babies ‘R’ Us just the other night. Coincidence?

  • we’re expecting our first in December and this would be a VERY welcomed addition to the nursery!

  • The Diaper genie is definitely one of the best inventions for keeping stinky diapers at bay. I had one of these with my boys and it was great not to have to deal with a nasty-smelling diaper pail in the baby’s room. Good luck everyone!

  • I had one older version for my first child, now I am expecting my second baby, would like to see what is the improvement of the Diaper genie 🙂

  • I would love to try one of these out. I have the Arm & Hammer pail right now but I heard that nothing beats the diaper genie. I am expecting baby #2 in 4 weeks so this would be AWESOME!!!

  • I would absolutly love the chance to try one of these out. I had considered buying one but with being on a budget we decided the money would be better spent on something we absolutly needed.

  • Just found out last night , our daughter is expecting our first grandchild and there is so much to buy! Winning this would be a wonderful first item for our coming grandson, if there is one thing about babies that has always remained the same, dirty diapers do not smell like a bouquet of roses….lol….

  • I would love the opportunity to try out and review one of these Diaper Genie Elite systems because I run a home day care five days a week; three babies, all under two years old, and all in diapers. Things can get a little smelly around here sometimes 😉

  • i would love to win this for my sister, she has a 6 month old and another one on the way 🙂

  • It’s such a great thing to have when dealing with the odour. I’d be anxious to see how it performs.

  • i would like to give this to my friend who just had a baby. My daughter is potty trained now. Thank good ness!!

  • I’d like to try it because I have an 18 month old and a newborn with no diaper pail system.

  • we currently dont have a proper diaper disposal system. We use a rubbermaid container and plastic bags!

  • I’d love to try this out. I hate going all the way out to the garbage in the cold every time one of my kids poops!

  • I have been trying for 12yrs to have a baby and now I am due in July with twins and that is twice the diapers so just having something to put two poopie diapers in, would be awesome. Keep my house smelling better.

  • I would like to win & review this because I am due in 3 weeks and I am sure this will come in handy with those stinky baby diapers I will be facing for the next couple of years 🙂

  • Would love to try this system, I have just been using the garbage can since I had my son, and am getting sick of the stinky smell. I am expecting a second in January, so I will now have double the diapers, so this would be perfect!

  • Well, I have had an awful time trying to figure out how to keep my house from smelling like stinky diapers! I dont have much money, so to have the chance to try one of these out would be amazing!! Thanks so much for the chance!

  • I just welcomed baby #3 to our family one month ago and now have 3 children under 3 years old all at once!! My 3 year old is now potty trained but I still have 2 in diapers. We have been using the Diaper Champ (bought used on Kijiji – ewww!! LOL) and although it works well, I’m open to trying another system to compare. My diaper days are long from being over. Here’s hoping we win!! 😀

  • I’d like to try one as my husband swears these won’t help I a believe they could. It would be nice to see who is right 🙂

  • in the spring i put my house up for sale and my realtor told me i had to get my old diaper genie out of the house because people veiwing it wont like the smell.

  • We have a 3.5 month old in the house and we just throw the diapers in the garbage right now. Would be super useful and hopefully would not stink up the house like it is doing now!!
