In 5 Baby Items I Never (or Rarely) Used
With four children and countless child care children in my home the past few years, I've definitely paired down what I think is necessary and what is not in my own home. Wipes warmers are a total unnecessary convenience, however my house tends to run very cold in the winter and with the newborn babies, it prevents unnecessary screaming during those many diaper changes. It's really only worth it those first couple months so you can probably do without it. I always hear people talk about Diaper Genies (which I've used but don't like), Diaper Champs (ok, but still smelly) and other brands, but I don't hear too many people mention the Diaper Decor which IMO is the absolute best at containing smells. I've never had to use odor disks, cleaning wipes, etc., and I can tear the bag of smelly diapers out anytime I'd like (kind of like the Genie) to dispose of. (And because my changing table is on the third floor of my house, it's just not convenient enough for me to take the dirty diapers out to the trash can daily.) The best thing is you can always skip buying the replacement bags and simply use a normal trash bag once you're past the diaper stage and use it like a normal wastebasket. It truly is the best one out there! And though I love the look of cute baby shoes on those cute little feet, you're right: they're pretty useless and never stay on.
