Do I need to buy the odor eliminator cartridge for this can if I am using it as a diaper pail?

I didn't buy one and it keeps the odor in. I use the garage for a diaper pail too and I just spray lysol whenever I change the bag. And I really just do it to keep it clean not because of a smell.

The can has tightly fitting components, but I should thing that dirty diapers would require odor control however they were stored.

The system comes complete with a sample chemical, so initially nothing extra is needed. You'll need to purchase additional toilet chemical eventually. We bought Ecosmart brand

Mine did because this filter was included in a kit. I'm not sure if you were to purchase this filter separately, that it would come with the cartridge.

I've it stored in a cabinet, and haven't had an issues with orders. But, I use either arm and hammer baking soda or air freshener as backup. It really depends on what you put into can and how long it sits. SimpleHuman makes odor absorbers, which you can view on their website. Not sure if it fits this model, you'd need to contact SimpleHuman. Net = I've been very happy with this can. Looks good, works good, easy to take lid off, the lid holds trash bags in place.

I think it is about the same. Litter genie has a square opening this one has a round. To change litter genie cartridges, you have to touch where poop and pee has touched. I would use plastic gloves. This one the whole top comes off to change cartridges. That's why I choose this one and also I think cartridges are a little cheaper. I see they want over $42.00 now. Not worth that. I paid 17.99. I would buy the litter genie now because it is 14.99.

Yes, I believe it would. It actually comes with a roll of clear bags. It's intended to be used with garbage bags and disposable diapers. I have not had an odor problem but keep in mind I am diapering a breastfed two month old.

It may, but I have no idea. I'm using it for a dirty diaper pail, and it's not working. It may be fine with lesser odors. Good luck.

We only use for disposable diapers. We love it! No smell and not as much money wasted on genie refills. The Janibell refills last a lot longer. Highly recommend!

Yep, just bag it up first. I may feel a little awkward pushing it through the friction-based opening of the diaper pail though. Diapers are more rigid and are easier to push through the top.

Yes. And I am very pleased with this purchase. This system makes for easy cleanup and controls odor very well.

No but you can buy clips that they hook into. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B006SFUDSU/ref=pd_aw_sims_2?pi=SS115But they only hold vertical. I tried putting the clip inside the lid of my diaper pail but the disc fell out. So I just throw one in the bottom of the diaper pail now.I find the smell comes when I open the lid to put a diaper in the pail. I keep a can of air freshner to hand to spray after I open it. If I can smell it any other time I know I need to just empty it.

Use the filters? Oh, yes--definitely. They're really the key; otherwise you might as well use any old container. The filters contain charcoal, so they soak up odors without blocking air circulation. They do indeed last a long time, but I always keep an extra set on hand; they're cheap. One bit of advice: Don't fill the pail so full that the contents press into the lid and soil the filters.

No, I believe you must replace it. However, my wife has vacuumed it to extend the life a bit. Also, be sure to use the pre-filters sold. They're cheap and extend the life of the more expensive HEPA. Also, they're the ones that remove smell.

Busch Odor-Free Diaper Pail Charcoal Filters. You can google this item and find at amazon, Busch's website, or natural baby/parenting stores. They're typically sold in multi-packs.

No. The opening is tight to keep the odor in-you have to squeeze the diaper through the opening. I don't think you can use it in this manner for the cat litter.

You need to buy additional cartridges. The ones they give you are like... Samples? You should order the "Goldfish" ones if you have messy fish, like goldfish (Which need a bigger tank than 10gals) and the "Tropical" for other fish.You need to do weekly water changes of 25% and clean the gravel. That will help with the smell

Yes you have to push the diaper through but I've never had any issues. There is not that much resistance but it keeps the smell inside the bag. As as you wrap the diaper around itself like the pail tells you to it should be fine. Like I said, my husband and I have not had any issues putting the diapers in this pail. Good luck to you!
