Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I use this can to temporarily dispose of used "puppy pads" when my two small dogs go potty. They are senior citizens now, and I don't want them to feel like they have to hold it all night (or during a long day), so I leave puppy pads on the floor of the bathroom in my apartment. The Ubbi can is a great place to toss the used pads so I don't need to trek down the hall to the garbage chute in the middle of the night. I never leave the used pads in the can for longer than a day, although the smell inside still gets pretty atrocious. Once the can is closed, though, it does a great job of locking the odor inside. I did find that putting a small, open container of odor-absorbing cat litter (I used a leftover plastic takeout food container) on the floor of the can (so it sits below the bag and doesn't interfere with anything) does help to absorb some of the smell. I attached a photo showing my cat litter container sitting in the can. You're still going to want to hold your breath when you open the can, though! I had tried using a Litter Genie for this same purpose and not only was it too small, but the custom bags were a pain in the neck and expensive. This is a far superior alternative for my purposes.
