Due to a few members stating that their packs of WaterWipes have gone mouldy, the WaterWipes representatives decided to give an explanation for this matter. See their response below:

On the ship, a container of WaterWipes was dislodged which affected one of thepallets of WaterWipes.  This caused some damage, and because the product is totally natural, this meant the water, humidity, salt and heat, affected a small number of packs.   We immediately isolated and quarantined the affected stock however some of the re-packed stock has slipped through.  Please be assured that it has nothing to do with the product quality.  It was a random shipping accident.  We stand by our great WaterWipes 100% and if anyone has experienced problems with their pack, please call the distributors on freephone 0800 146 279 for a full replacement.  We have been inundated with great testimonials and we thank you for this overwhelming positive response.

    We have been using Waterwipes and so far (touchwood) our little girl hasnt had any issues with nappy rash or anything like that.
    We have had them go mouldy but it was when it took me ages to use up the pack, they werent mouldy when I opened them.
    I really wish they folded them differently so they seperated easier and I wish they did travel packs, but apart from that we are super happy with them and are continuing to use them.

    I like these wipes. I find them easy to use and pull when I am on the go, plus no need to worry about the nasty chemicals in other wipes. Great product! The only thing I can add is it would be better if it can be made into travel packs and fold as individual sheet, so the next sheet won't come out after each use, as currently I need to tuck back the last one after use.

    These wipes are perfect for when your baby is brand new and you want to wrap them in cotton wool and protect them from the world. For these young, precious cherubs i unreservedly recommend the wipes, but for older babies i suggest looking at alternatives - for 3 reasons.

    1. they are VERY expensive.

    2. They are 99.9% water - so try making your own reusable ones. Better for the environment and for your purse! We used the waterwipes as our 'out and about' wipe - at home our own which were also 99.9% water ;)

    3. Because they have no preservatives they can (and do) go moldy. Not suggesting that you should use one with preservatives - just merely pointing this out.

    Sorry for my late review.
    I have to say tho these wipes are amazing!! I love how think they are, and they seem to have a nice smell to them even tho they have no fragrance in them.
    I hate putting chemical products on my baby so I was very excited to review these, I give them a 10/10, I was very disapointed to see that my local pak n save didnt stock them but will be checking every week and if/when they do get them in I will be buying them from now on.
    I loved them and highly recommend then to other mums!

    i found these wipes to be amazing, we started off using huggies wipes which were too harsh on his skin, a week after birth he had the worst nappy rash, it was peeled and bleeding took him to docs and got told to use soft baby flannels and warm water i use these when out and sometimes at night. =) best ever for sensitive skin.

    We've had these for less than a week but here are my observations so far:
    The wipes themselves are nice and thick and easy to use from that perspective.
    I'm finding them good for wiping toddler faces as I don't have to worry about chemicals drying out dear toddler's skin. They're not so great for very grubby hands. Moderately grubby hands fine but a set of very muddy hands yesterday still smelt a bit funky after a wipe with these. They've dealt with toddler poos alright though.
    So far I think they're a good alternative for sensitive young skins.

    Took a while for these to arrive, but I have to say that I am very impressed- nice and moist (but not too moist)and very soft
    Found they came out the packet one at a time when I sometimes have trouble with others coming out in bunches
    All in all very impressed- will keep an eye out for mould as it sems a few people have had this, but happy to say no such issue here

    I buy these for use at daycare and on holiday (the rest of the time I use facecloths). I have never had issues with them going mouldy and a packet lasts 3-4 weeks at daycare with no mould issues! I love them. Cant fault them at all.

    I was given a sample packet of these which went mouldy. I then purchased two packets as I thought it was my faulty for not using them however the two packets I purchased also went mouldy in just a couple of days. I would not recommend these.

    Love these. No chemical nasties. My daughter gets nappy rash from others. Wish they were cheaper and at all supermarkets though, can be hard to find.

    I was very excited to find this product. However I left a packet in the car for when I was out and about, and after two weeks the wipes started "growing things". I wouldn't recommend these.

    Love them! great they can mostly be purchased in supermarkets now

    These are fantastic wipes. My son reactes to other wipes so was nice to find ones that are okay with him. They are available at most supermarkets now but some are cheaper than others. They are a little more expensive than other wipes but because they are a little moister you don't need as many. Also love the idea that I can use them on the face without worrying. I will not be buying any other wipes.

    I really like these. They are so thin so great to get inbetween those cracks. A great product.

    These are fantastic wipes. They don't leave any residue or have a strong scent. Knowing that they are the most natural wipe you can buy gives you confidence to use them all the time.
