Comments from testers

Marta, Antoni's mother (8 months)

The product is useful, despite the fact that I do not use wet wipes for baby care on a daily basis. It does not irritate or cause allergies. It does not have any care properties, but it can be used as an addition to the standard method of taking care of hygiene. It has too intense a fragrance, which proves that it is perfumed and its composition is not completely natural. It is difficult to pull out the right amount of wipes. Each time you have to take out the entire file and put the excess back in the packaging.

Katarzyna, Tom's mother (3 years old)

The handkerchiefs are a bit too small. Good form of closure, do not dry out.

Katarzyna, Maria's mother (1,5 years)

The scent is too intense for me, I felt that the wipes were quite dry.

Katarzyna, Antoni's mother (2,8 years old)

The wipes are pleasant to the touch, properly moistened, but very small and thus totally inefficient in use. Standard convenient opening, but wipes are difficult to pull out, either in large packages or individually

Maria, Jan's mother (2 years old)

The wipes are poorly soaked and rough, you have to use more of them than the standard ones. Wipes are only useful in emergency situations, e.g. going for a walk.

Maria, Wojtek's mother (3,5 years old)

Wipes ok, probably not for everyday use due to the chemical smell
