They are a must have for the bath tub, changing table, high chair and diaper bag! Keep a pile of these on your changing table along with a spray bottle containing diluted Dr. Bronners for a gentle, economical cleanup. Toss into the diaper pail and wash with the diapers.

In my effort to be more green and use less paper products I bought those cloth wipes made of hemp. I was very disappointed as they were not what I expected. They’re about the size of a hand (shrink in the wash), with one side like jersey cloth and the other velvety like. Think a piece of an old sweatshirt but in a very thin fabric. The huge label is annoying and I cut it out. After the 1st wash they curled up all around the edges.
I didn’t know what to use them for since they’re terrible as baby wipes… maybe dust cloths? But I have actually found a way to make those wipes somewhat useful: sewing 2 together to form a mitten (making sure you keep both “textures” available), you get a much better grip on the fabric this way and can actually clean a little bum (or dust your bookshelf…)!..
Honestly, they get 2 stars because it’s a green product, but that’s about it!
Pros: reusable, washable, natural fabric, no dyes.
Cons: very thin ‘flimmsy” fabric, curled edges after 1st wash, small size (shrink)

good quality, one side softer than the other, just the oval shape doesn’t help for storage (never know how to fold them!)

I do not use these as baby wipes. They are divine as facial washcloths, and I also started using them in the shower (although I am not prepared to dispense with my agave cloth yet!). They are the perfect size, not too large or thick like regular washcloths so my body wash isn’t wasted or absorbed into oblivion. The terry cloth side is very soft, the other side is more of a stiff knit texture — slightly exfoliating.
I agree with the other reviewers about the tags, they are huge, get in the way, a totally unnecessary frustration & the company should remove them entirely. The tag is the negative in an otherwise perfect product.

These wipes are a good value, however they did shrink a lot after washing. I loved them when I first opened them, but after a few washes they were WAY smaller. I still use them, but have since made some hand made 8×8 wipes that work better for the bigger messes.

These wipes are HUGE – I can totally see the parents I am giving these to – using them a lot and not just for booty clean up! Makes a great addition to any baby shower gift. Very soft thick fabric, I love the fact they are eco friendly too!
