Advantages: smell nice and do the job efficiently.

Disadvantages: none

Changing a nice smelly nappy of your babies isn't the nicest thing in the world and I don't see the point in paying over £1.00 for, quite literally, a bag of crap.
As important as it is to make sure your bin doesn't smell like faeces, nobody wants to spend a fortune on nappy sacks.

I rarely have to use them now, but I bought a packet of these for 30p quite a while ago for the occasion when I do have to change a dirty pull-up nappy from my son. Considering that I got 100 bags for such a low price, I didn't expect much from them and was pleased with the small price I'd paid when some of the bags in ASDA cost £1.60 for 75 which I think is ridiculous in comparison.

When I opened the bag, I could smell a nice slightly sweet smell, like a baby lotion kind of smell which was nice. I pulled a bag out to use and struggle for a bit and had to lick my finger, not the best way to get them out when I had a writhing 2 year old on my lap demanding me to let him go, so that could have been better.

The bags are a greeny - blue colour and are easily big enough to fit in a full nappy and some of the used wipes with two handles so you can tie it nice and tight and throw it away. The bags rarely break, although when I have put a really full nappy in without closing it, back when my son was younger and in original nappies, I have caught the sticky part on the bag and had a struggle not to rip the bag when getting the nappy in, so be careful about that.

I couldn't really smell the nappy once it was in the bag, it had the nice smell still although not as strong on its own, but I was happy enough to stick it in my bin without the worry of making my kitchen smell nasty.

I recently went in ASDA and noticed that they haven't got these anymore, they have smartprice ones but they're in a white and green bag and you get 300 for 70p. I am yet to try these, but it's definitely better value so you might want to give them a try!

Overall, these do exactly the same job as other nappy sacks for a lower price. A must be for all new (-ish) mums. =]

Summary: A great priced bag of poo!
