It depends on which refill you're using and your baby's age (newborns go through more nappies than older babies). According to Tommee Tippee, the manufacturer of our top ranked nappy bin, each refill cassette should last around three to four weeks. How do I choose a nappy bin? Lots of Mumsnet users stop using nappy bins after their babies start reliably eating solids. Weaning usually begins at six months, so you may find that your nappy bin becomes less useful when your baby is anywhere between eight and 14 months. Nappy bins can range in size but, rather than focusing on the litre capacity, it's more useful to look at how many nappies each bin holds so you can judge the functionality better and will be able to estimate how often you’ll need to empty it. While the Ubbi Nappy Disposal Bin holds up to 50 nappies, most of the bins in our round-up will hold around 20 to 30 nappies. How often you empty a nappy bin is a personal choice, of course, and you may opt to empty it on a daily basis. Some nappy bins can fit a large volume of nappies, such as the Ubbi Nappy Disposal Bin which has capacity for up to 50 nappies.Stop wasting money on genuine refills for your Tommee Tippee nappy bin - our refill kit is the original, cost-saving and environmentally friendly alternative!

If you’re using reusable nappies, then somewhere to store the dirty ones until you have enough for a wash is essential.Materials like steel will eliminate odours better than plastic. Parents recommend adding drops of lavender or tea-tree oil after cleaning to keep smells away. We found that the Ubbi Steel Nappy Disposal Bin was the best nappy bin for minimising nasty odours. How often should nappy bins be emptied? Nappy bins for disposable nappies are designed to store used nappies until you have enough for a wash. Most state the number of nappies they hold, but this usually refers to size 1 nappies – the newborn size – which means that, as your baby grows, your nappy bin will hold less. Most nappy bins can fit around 30-50 nappies, making them ideal for those early weeks with a new baby. Just make sure you change the bin bag every few days – whether or not the bin is full – or the bin could become a bit smelly. Do I need to buy special bin liners?

Most of the recommendations for nappy bins in this round-up came from Mumsnetters themselves who have tried and tested the products as consumers. Some users recommend zipped bags that you can put straight into the washing machine, rather than a nappy bin. They particularly like ones with a hook. Most nappy bins need liners or plastic bin bags. Put the nappy in, close the lid and it seals the nappy and smells. If you’re looking for a more compact, space-saver bin then it's worth remembering that it won't have as large a capacity, so you may want to weigh up whether space or capacity is more of a requirement. And remember that the capacity normally covers size 1 nappies, so the bin and liners will hold fewer nappies (and need changing more often) when you start using larger sizes. How do nappy bins work?
