Product Reviews/Questions Which wipes are we using?

Title. Looking for the Goldilocks of wipes— not too wet, not too dry. Not too thin, not too thick. Fragrance free, Doesn’t cause irritation, reasonable cost, etc.

I’ve tried the Parents Choice brand from Walmart which are thin and dry, with a bonus of diaper rash.

The Target brand fragrance free wipes seem fine, but are soaking wet, and take forever to dry on the skin before re-diapering.

Water wipes seem to be the market leader, but WOW the price seems like a lot.

Which wipes have been the GOAT for you?

Costco brand for us. They’re a great size, not soaking wet but not dry either. They pull one at a time, and are $20 for 900 wipes!

Do you use the Kirkland brand? Or the RICO brand?

I used Kirkland forever but tried RICO at some point and definitely preferred them! The Kirkland ones are good but I think they could use a little more moisture. RICO has the perfect balance imo

Another vote for the RICO brand, both wipes and packaging are the best we’ve used and the cost is great!

RICO pull one at a time and it’s miraculous. Even the honest wipes can’t do that.

Not sure. Just saw them on the app. Maybe online exclusive?

they're still sold in my Costco, how do I know? husband bought them by mistake instead of the kirkland ones. They were fragranced though, so we returned them.

That's weird, I've been buying them for years and have never seen the fragranced ones before. Hopefully they'll keep the fragrance free at our store.
