Advantages: resealable pack works, convenient, solution cleans well

Disadvantages: not quite as heavy duty as a cloth

I was surprised by this product because I'm not normally a fan of disposable culture - to give the relevant analogy I would rather buy a really good cloth and use it over and over than a pack of wipes. But after being bought some of this by my partner I did become a convert.

The wipes themselves are genuinely strong and have enough of a texture to scrub off dirt. The alcohol and detergent in the solution is actually a big help in getting grease in particular off surfaces, particularly if you leave it there for a moment. There is a pleasant but slightly artificial lemon scent too, which is fine. I'm slightly ambivalent about the antibacterial properties - the main thing is that it cleans, but I guess it can't hurt.

Probably the best feaure though is the packaging. It's resealable to keep the wipes fresh, and uniquely amongst resealable packaging it actually seems to work! You pull the wipes out like tissues.

A pack does last for a fair amount of time. Assuming you use one a day then with a 60 pack you can get some way. Personally I find that I tend to use two (one for surfaces and the other for heavier duty spills), but the cost is still worth it for the convenience.

Summary: Product works well and probably is a fair price for the convenience.
