Okay, let me just say that this pail does the job. I have a two month old in cloth diapers that goes through about 10 diapers a day, and this pail holds them with no leaking smells. That's why I bought the pail, and for that it is successful.
Now to the negatives. This pail is smaller than I expected, although I should have thought about that when I read 7 gallon. I'm not sure how full it will be for people with more than one child in diapers… you may want to consider a larger pail. The metal closures are great – they're strong and will last forever, however, they are a pain in the butt to open and close all the time so I generally just put the top back on the pail and call it good since I'll be opening it again in a couple hours. My husband is a little bit better about closing the metal thingies than I am, but baby poop bothers him a little more than it does me anyways. And if you want to transport this little pail from room to room (we use it downstairs during the day and upstairs at night), there's really no easy way to carry it.
Overall, I like it enough that it will get 4 stars, and we will continue to use it without looking for a replacement, at least until we decide to have baby #2.
