The manufactuer in their demo bills the pail as not requiring special bags thus money savings (source). Probably Hanlon's razor as several people on the Amazon.com product page complain that the pail rips bags (search keywords "tear" and "rip" separately in the reviews).
>Ubbi, your diaper pail needs to go back to drawing board because there are major design flaws. See photo. I have had many garbage bags fail in this pail from Ubbi bags, to Hefty ultra strong flex, and now industrial strength 30 gl bags. The reason for this is the stupid lip this trash can has at the top for the seal and duel lid to act as an anti-smell capsule. Every time the bag will catch on this lip and tears. Fail at least once a week now and I have 2 kids
------------------------------
>This works great if you like to pick up diapers by hand when the bag tears open. Seriously. There are little downward facin tabs around the rim that sometimes snag the bag and can tear it open. Sometimes is too often IMHO when dealing with dirty diapers. My better half says it never happens and I do it wrong - don't know, I'm certainly not try to bare hand deal with the toxic contents and it's happened DOZENS of times over the last 3 years. When my last one is out of diapers I swear to Christ I'm gonna take an ax to this thing.
----------------------------
>I regret my purchase of this container. It doesn't hold nearly as many diapers as my last one and it's a pain to replace the bags. When them unit is full, it's horribly smelly to replace the bags and when you pull it out, the bag tears every time from the back hinge.
---------------------
Apparently you may be using an older revision of the pail as the manufacturer commented on one of the bad reviews saying they had changed the product to make the bags not tear:
>Our latest Ubbi diaper pail models have:
>1. Smoother teeth on the bag holder, and are turned upward instead of downward
>2. A smoother cover to shield the jagged rim, so the bag doesn’t get stuck in between these teeth

We love our Ubbi diaper pail: http://www.amazon.com/Ubbi-Steel-Diaper-Pail-White/dp/B00821FLT4. Expensive but holds the odor so well and uses standard trash bags, which is nice, and lots of colors to work with your house.
We couldn't live without the Rock and Play or Ergo carrier. Sleepers with foldover mittens were a lifesaver too - Old Navy had ones that worked for us. Also, absorbent pads for the changing table! We set them on top of the changing pad cover, and just wash them when there are poop/pee incidents.
Lots of onesies - it just made sense for us early to just dress her in a onesie and call it good. Carters worked well - the Gerber ones were a bit thinner and ran small.
We used Circo receiving blankets as burp cloths because we received like seven million as gifts.
Worst purchases: lots of newborn sized clothes - she grew out of them so fast and never wore 90%! We've yet to get any use of our baby shoes, because her feet are teeny, so we stick with just socks.
We have this:

Yes, it's expensive but it works! We also got it at Buy Buy Baby with a 20% off coupon which is incredibly easy to find. It uses regular trash bags so that's great, and as long as you remember to close the lid, it keeps all the smell contained. The only downside we've found is that because it's so big, it holds like a weeks worth of diapers, and then the bag is so crazy heavy when it's time to change it that I can't lift it and my husband has to do it! Not such a bad downside for me actually :)
We're almost eleven months out (OMG, HOW?) and this has been our experience:
> If you use a dresser for a changing table, do you need a way to keep the baby from falling off while you’re reaching for supplies?
> Are diaper pails necessary over a regular trash can?
> Should we store diaper change equipment up on an open shelf that doesn’t require hands to open a drawer?
> Ambient vs task lighting? Nightlights?
> Blackout curtains for napping?
> A recliner that’s comfy enough to doze in?
> Is a light colored rug a terrible idea?
Anyway. Our experience. Hopefully you find a few pearls in there that are helpful to you!

I love my diaper pail so much!! I got the Ubbi diaper pail. I have never smelled anything coming out of that thing, the seals are so good (unless I forget and leave it open, but that's not their fault). It's stainless steel so the dog can't get into it, cause my dog has been known to eat plastic to get to something he wants to eat. I use regular kitchen trash bags with it. It's expensive for a can that holds poop, but it's cheaper than a good regular stainless steel trash can. I highly recommend it!
Ubbi more expressive but it uses whatever bags you normally would in your kitchen. It keeps ANY smell in. It's awesome. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00821FLT4/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1394731099&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40
Same here. Diaper genie drew us in because it was inexpensive initially, but they get you with all the refills you have to buy. We picked up one of these Ubbi's and while it seemed like a lot upfront we can use our kitchen garbage bags we get in bulk from Costco in it.
This is the Holy Grail: https://www.amazon.com/Ubbi-Saving-Special-Required-Locking/dp/B00821FLT4
I'd really strongly recommend the Ubbi Diaper Pail.
First, it's human smell-proof. We have our changing table in our bedroom, and never had a problem with it.
Second, that lid should definitely be dog proof. It even has the locking latch so the hatch won't open, but I'd expect a beagle to bee too short for that to be an issue. Between being able to lock the hatch, and maybe put some small weights in the bottom so they can't knock it over, it'll be safe.
Third, the pail just takes normal 13gal bags. We did disposables for newborn, and our normal kitchen bags did great. We have wet bags in it now, and they're still perfect.
The only, only thing I do, and I have no evidence I need to, is leave it open when there's no bag in it to air-dry out a bit. Diapers are exothermic, and it generates some humidity in there. It's a steel pail so I'd like to think I'm offsetting future rust. I'm at least letting nasty diaper humidity get out.
I would recommend this awesome diaper pail because you don't have to buy special bags. It just uses regular garbage bags. Save you money in the long run.
I love ours

You only forget to lock it once or twice... 🤣
Take a look at this one
the ubbi doesnt use bags. its a newer product from them, not their initial break into proprietary bagged systems.
so the ubbi im talking about is basically a regular old 80 dollar trash can but it has heavy duty rubber seals and child proofing. its made of stainless steel, you just use regular glad bags in it or no bag if you want (you nasty ass). heres the product and currently its on sale for 50 bucks instead of 80. they list ubbi bags with it, obviously, but you can just get any costco bag for that size container and use it.
Thats comparable to the cost of a regular nice looking stainless steel trash can but it those regular cans dont have any sort of smell seal on them.
