Advantages: Larger than the average wipe, does a brilliant job, very very cheap!!!

Disadvantages: None at all!

As I've mentioned before in my previous reviews, I love to use anything that has an antibacterial agent in it. As I feel that my home is then fresh and clean. Now one of my favourites are the wipes you can buy as you can just pull one out and wipe over many things that get grubby, like your telephone ( especially if someone using it before has a stinking cold!), light switches and around door handles ect....

Now I usually go for the well known brands like Dettol,Jeyes Parozone, Cif, Flash and so on, so when I saw these ones on Wilkinsons on special offer I thought I would give them ago. As they looked quite a bit bigger than the ones I was using at present which are Parozone. When I got these home I compared them together and the Wilko ones are a lot larger and thicker, it was quite surprising to see so I got the tape measure out so I could tell all you Dooyoors the exact size of each so here goes as follows;

Parozone-13cm X 16cm

Wilkinsons-17cm X 21cm

Quite a bit of difference, the texture is similar with the same slight pattern in the cloth. I had noticed in the past that when I got the Parozone wipe out it was hard to clean things as by the time you grab hold of it theres not a lot to clean with ( I don't have giant hands by the way!). So down to the cleaning these Wilko ones have a strongish smell of lavender, but not to overpowering as to stink everywhere out. I rubbed it over the bathroom fitments and tiles where shampoo had been spilt ( no one else seems to see things like that only ME!!) and it wiped up really well.

Now these wipes claim to effectively kills E.Coli, Listeria and Salmonella, and once the wipe has been used the residual anti-bacterial action will last for up to 12 hours, so thats good to know. These are safe to use in the kitchen, bathroom, nursery and anywhere you suspect there could be germs lurking.

Now on the back it shows you how to use these wipes, Peel back label; now this label is very large (well it has to be for such a large wipe!) and pulls back nicely to let you grab a wipe which also comes out of the packet very easily not in a bunch like I've had with other brands. One at a time. Next Reseal; This reseals very well again not like others that don't seal up and then go on the dry out.

Use each wipe on one surface and throw away after so not to spread bacteria from one place to another. Importantly don't flush down the toilet as these could cause blockages ( It definitely would with my drains) just pop into the bin.

These are not suitable for soft furnishings and it also points out just incase you didn't know these are not for personal use ( dam such a nice smell as well!!).

The best part I have kept to last as these are on special at the moment ( well they were yesterday!) where you can get not one but two packs for a mere 97p YEP I was surprised as well and when I got them home and saw how much bigger they were I was even more pleased. These also come in a lemon fragrance, so I got one of each. Today I have asked Hubby if he pops out to the shops in his lunch hour to pick me up a load more.

A large 5 stars for these wipes!!
I didn't realise that I could write so much about a WIPE!

Summary: Definitely worth every single penny, a really good product!
