Great Wipes, But Ingredients Keep Changing, Wipe Size Decreased Over Time, and You Get Fewer Wipes Now
By ReviewerWhoPrefersToBeAnonymous
Note added 11/28/09: I’ve revised my 04/26/09 review with new info and changed my rating from five to four stars.

I ordered these wipes from Amazon in mid-2008, in early 2009, and in late 2009, but the wipes were dissimilar each time. See Images.

In mid-2008, the front of the mostly-green package was beige and had “seventh GENERATION baby” on the “leaf” logo. The text on the front was in English only; the back was stamped “MADE IN UK.” The ingredients were “Water, Cetyl Hydroxyethylcellulose (plant-derived cleaning agent), Glycerin (vegetable oil derived), Citric Acid (provides stability and pH balance), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Tocopheryl Acetate (vitamin E acetate), Potassium Sorbate and Sodium Benzoate (food-grade preservatives).” The weight of the package was 1 pound (although it’s possible that a good deal of moisture leaked out as the measurement was taken in early 2009). There were 80 wipes per package, each 6.8″x7.5″.

In early 2009, the front of the mostly-green package was blue and gray, and had just “seventh GENERATION” on the “leaf” logo on the front. The text on the front was in English and French; the back was stamped “MADE IN USA.” The ingredients were “Water, Polysorbate 20 (cleansing agent derived from sugar), Glycerin (soothes and cleanses skin, vegetable oil derived), Citric acid (provides stability & pH balance), Potassium sorbate (a natural preservative), Aloe Barbadensis Gel (helps heal skin), Tocopherol acetate (Vitamin E acetate, helps heal skin).” These ingredients were rated 2 (a “low” hazard) on a cosmetic safety database on the Web. The weight of the package was 1-1/4 pounds when received. There were 80 wipes per package, each 6.8″x7.5″.

In late 2009, the packaging had changed completely, with an overall light lime color rather of green. The baby on the front was sitting in the grass looking at a stacking ring toy. The text was all in English; the side was stamped “MADE IN USA.” The ingredients were “Aqua (water), glycerin (vegetable oil derived), citric acid (provides stability and pH balance), cetyl hydroxyethylcellulose (plant-derived cleaning agent), aloe barbadensis extract (aloe), tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E acetate), sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate (food-grade preservatives). … The wipe material employed in this product is a blend of rayon (naturally derived) and polyester (PET).” The weight of the package was 1 pound when received. There were 70 wipes per package, each 6.8″x7″.

Common to all three versions: (1) Although all the packages said “unscented,” there was genuinely a slight odor perhaps from the citric acid and aloe. (2) We’ve applied all of them without difficulties like diaper rash. (3) I don’t agree with reviews such as “There is scarcely any moisture now” proposing that the water content has decreased over time. The current wipes feel just as moist as the former ones. Although the package weight decreased amid early 2009 and late 2009, the number of wipes and their size also declined, so that the weight per unit area remained regarding the same. I will say that the weight per unit area (.0048 ounces per square inch) is lower than for other brands of wipes (e.g., Kirkland from CostCo at .0057 ounces per sq in), proposing a lower water content than other brands have.

However, comparing the three versions, I do have two major concerns: (1) THE INGREDIENTS KEEP CHANGING. Can’t the manufacturer stick with one formula? (2) THE COST PER SQUARE INCH OF WIPE HAS INCREASED ABOUT 22%, from 0.086 cents in early 2009 to 0.105 cents in late 2009. The reason is that you compensate the same price as before but the wipe size decreased and you get less wipes now.

For the reasons above, I changed my 4/26/09 rating from five stars to four now. Consider buying these wipes from Amazon.com!

Great wipe – changed pkg without consent
By Christophe Huestis
My wife and I love these wipes. So imagine our dismay when the most recent shipment came in (we subscribe) with dissimilar packaging and less wipes. I wouldn’t be disturb except the price didn’t change. So now we are getting 120 less wipes (nearly 2 packages less) for the same price. It ends up meaning 0.6 cent increase per wipe or a 15.7% increase in price. Since we order one case of pkgs per month this will turn into a $66 increase of the course of a year. I realize the economy is bad so companies are reducing production but the product price ought to decrease at least a little accordingly. Poor PR move by a what we have considered a great company. As far as distribution goes, since the firstborn package at the basi price is still being sold, I am annoyed with Amazon for altering which product we receive without any notification.

PS just noticed 7th gen likewise changed the size: per case (12 pkgs) it ends up being a bit under 9000 sq in reduction in the amount of product versus the firstborn pkg. Which means we are getting 176 less wipes (more than 2 pkgs) per order or a 0.8 cent per wipe or 21.2% increase in price. That is a $92 increase per year. OUCH!

diaper rash
By C. Sabin
I genuinely do not get it.. I started using these wipes after buying the pack of 12 and my baby invented diaper rash. She seldom got diaper rash before, so I do not get why this wipe would give it to her. When I stopped using this wipe and used a dissimilar brand her rash went away.. Plus I dislike the smell these wipes have. Granted they assert to be unscented, but there is a strange smell to them. Now I am stuck with 900 wipes and I am out $35 bucks. I would commend attempting them out before buying a massive amount of them like I did.. BIG MISTAkE on my part.
