Seventh Generation Disinfecting Multi-Surface Wipes, Lemongrass Citrus, 70 Count, Pack of 3 (Packaging May Vary)

I had to write a review after reading someone writing a negative review. I hope they make these for a very very long time as I've used this brand for over 5 years. These are the best nontoxic disinfectant wipes I've found so far. I use both the wipes and the spray depending on what I need them for. The wipes are best for wiping down while disinfecting everything from surfaces to your hands. I always have some in my vehicle to disinfect my hands before eating something. Especially nice for those who are sensitive to alcohol or chemicals,have eczema etc. As for the smell they used to have a orange vanilla spray I liked but this seems to be the main scent they have now and honestly I don't go out of my way to smell cleaning products natural or not but I'll say the smell isn't very strong.

I use these wipes for both my home and in a laboratory setting. We rotate three different disinfectants through our lab setting to control microbial and fungal contamination, performing a weekly cleaning with one cleaner per week. The disinfectants we use are these Seventh Gen Disinfecting Wipes, 70% ethanol solution, and 10% bleach solution (again, NOT using these at the same time). I personally have a lot of issues with the fumes from ethanol and bleach, so much so that I do not help clean when we use them in the lab, and in my home I do not hang around when the husband wants to use disinfectants with bleach or bleach alternative in them (although it is fabulous for certain things), and ethanol is not a common household disinfectant, especially at the 70% effective concentration. I am a fan of the smell of these wipes (they smell fresh and clean to me, not chemical-like), my kids and most of my coworkers also like the smell of them, but they do smell strongly and not everyone will appreciate the smell. As with anything, there are people that will find they have sensitivities to certain products, so if you find or already know that you have sensitive skin, wear some gloves- I doubt you will find a similarly effective DISINFECTANT that doesn't also bother you. If you are cleaning a food surface, it won't hurt to rinse with water (like with any other disinfectant), but in my opinion it isn't as necessary with this product as with some of the others. Obviously don't ingest the wipes or liquid (or really go ahead if you would like to go for the Darwin award). If you are worried about the product having an SDS (formerly known as MSDS), relax- everything has an SDS- most people just aren't aware of it (because who knew water also has an SDS?!). The wipes have a lot of "juice" so they give a great kill time on surfaces and one wipe goes a long way. The bottom line is that this is a very effective natural disinfectant that I prefer for my home over some of the harsher chemical disinfectants, so if you want a DISINFECTANT and not just a topical clean (if you don't understand that, google the difference between cleaner, disinfectant, and sanitizer to determine your end goal, and then do your research on what products you will need to alternate to achieve your desired result, as no product will kill everything), this is a great choice!

These are the best wipes I’ve found on the market for effectiveness and durability. I’ve used them both in my home and my restaurant and particularly like that they are safe for food surfaces. They do an amazing job of scrubbing and cleaning without tearing, and there is plenty of cleaning solution, so the moisture level is perfect and they don’t dry out in the middle of the job.

It looks safe, but it smells so bad.

After trying numerous wipes - both "natural" and highly chemical, I settled on this for daily use. The smell takes a bit of getting used to, but is not bad and it is thankfully not heavily perfumed with chemical phthalates like most of the other wipes are. A big advantage to these is that they work well on a variety of plastics and metal products, and don;t seem to ever cause any mar to the finish. I have even used them to wipe clothes, after noticing stains or food spilled on them. Like any other wipe, make sure to wash your hands after using them, especially if you are going to touch your eyes. It is not a good feeling to touch your eyes after these! You won't go blind but you will need to wipe your eyes because they will tear up. Some limitations to these are: 1) They will not clean really dirty items or stains as good as a Clorox wipe. For example, Seventh Generation wipes are great for wiping a generally clean toilet bowl rim or sink, but if you have stains on anything porcelain, a Clorox Wipe will do a better job. 2) Like the Lysol or Clorox or most other wipes, as you get about halfway through the wipes in the cannister, they become very wet. If that is the case, I recommend just wringing the wet wipe out a bit and releasing some of the liquid before using it. Overall, I like these and have these on hand all the time now. I have come to rely on them for daily cleaning. I have even taken 2 at a time and attached them to my Swiffer Sweeper, and have used them as a wet mop. It works o.k., and is cheaper than buying the Swiffer wet mop refills, although the Seventh Generation wipes don't pick up quite as much dust and dirt.

I've been using these wipes for several years now. I have a bottle in almost every room and both bathrooms. They work as they should and I feel safe using them. No toxic fumes like most other wipes on the market. No streaking just good, quality cleaning. Love the product!

I use these wipes all of the time. They are good quality and the smell is nice. The lid seals good so the wipes don't dry out.

I love using all natural disinfectant cleaners, but the smell gets me every time. I'm not a fan of the smell of thyme. However, I do use these at work daily!!!
