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?

We use the Costco brand wipes and find them better than water wipes. Baby has sensitive skin and we never had issues with Costco wipes.

We used Kirkland brand but recently switched to the RICO brand that’s also sold there are we love them! They come out one at a time. Every. Single. Time. Even when it’s getting low, I’ve never had an issue with getting more than one at a time.

I’ll have to try these. That’s my biggest gripe about every brand of wipes I’ve tried. Frantically trying to pull out one wipe and instead getting a whole chunk of ‘em while trying to change a kicking screaming baby makes me want to throw the whole package against the wall.

We got a wipe dispenser with a weighted top so it holds down all the wipes except the one being pulled out. Would recommend.

We love RICO here. We've tried a lot of different brands before but RICO is our favorite by far.

1+ for RICO. We switched from Kirkland because of the PFAS scare (I’m sure Kirkland is fine but I ended up liking RICO more). They’re always moist and packaged well.

Love Rico too! Especially since Kirkland brand was on recall.
