Advantages: cheap

Disadvantages: gave baby a sore bottom

I usually buy Pampers baby wipes, but they are so expencive. I thought I would try and save money by buying Safeways own brand, from their Safeway Baby range.

They were very cheap, at just £4.99 for a pack of three refills, each containing 80 wipes. On the pack it says they are "Fragrance free", "Soft and Gentle" and "for sensitive skin", unfortunately none of these things are true. They have a very strong perfume and smell quite like chemicals, this is very offputting as I want to keep the things I put on my babys skin as natural as possible.

They are very thin, and are not "soft" or "gentle". They tear very easily and do not follow out of the pack one after the other. After using these wipes for just a week, my baby got a sore bottom. This is the first time this has happened, when I use Pampers or Johnsons there was never a problem, so I can only assume that it lies with Safeway.

These wipes are ok if you alternate using cotton wool and water for each nappy change, but really you shouldn't have to do this. I think this product is of really low quality and it has put me off trying anything else from that range. They may be cheap but they certainly are not useful. I will not be buying this product again and will resume buying from the Pampers range.
