Earth's Best Chlorine Free Baby Wipes Refill, 72-Count (Pack of 12)

I was checking the ingredients of those wipes and Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate is a very controversial preservative. Has the potential to be contaminated with formaldehyde, and can also break down into formaldehyde, a known carcinogen, toxin and irritant that is rated as a high hazard by the EWG.

The price increase for this product is pure BS. I paid $38.88 for 960 wipes (80 count x 12 packages) on July 4, 2011 and see the price for the same item is now $51.18 from the vendor that Amazon automatically switched me to in my subscribe/save account. Huh? Not only is a 32% price increase for less wipes in the span of two months unconscionable, but it's pretty sneaky (not to mention unethical) for Amazon to switch me to another vendor that charges the excessive price hike. I'm sure Earth's Best will argue they had to increase their price due to increased commodity/ labor costs, but give me a break... the only changes in the past two months are the stock market has dropped, unemployment is still high, and consumers still aren't buying anything. When was the last time any of you received a 32% raise for doing less work? Shame on you Earth's Best!! I bought this brand for the past 2+ years for my 2 babies but I'm totally switching to another brand after this. Vote with your feet...Read more

We have tried a lot of brands of chlorine free wipes and these are our favorite. They are soft and strong but do seem a little bit thinner and smaller than brands like Huggies. They work just as well, though, and I think the texture is more gentle. The wipes at the bottom of the package have a tendency to be a little bit soapy but flipping the package upside down when not using it solves that problem. The Earth's Best reusable container is crap. We bought a cheap package of wipes at the grocery store and use that container with these refills. The resealable plastic tab on the top of this refill package doesn't last as long as the package does so a reusable container is a must to keep them from drying out.
