Free and useful? Can't complain!
I am impressed with these cleaning and disinfecting wipes. For being free with my order, they did a good job cleaning my toys and didn't smell terrible. I will be choosing these as my free gift in the future for sure.

Pros
Free, cleans well, easy to use
Cons
Contains tea tree oil, some people might find scent unpleasant
I am pleasantly surprised with the wipes that came with my EdenFantasys order. They worked just as well for cleaning my glass and silicone toys as soap and water did. They even removed lint, dust, and hair, which is great because I have a hard time keeping a dust-free storage environment for silicone toys. I checked the toys after cleaning to see if the wipes left behind a film or coating, and I couldn't feel anything. I thought the wipes felt good on my skin, but I got them more for toy cleaning than for use on my body. When I'm in a hurry to clean a toy or need to wipe some lint off before use, it's nice to have these wipes on hand.
I am also pleased with the safety level of the ingredients of the wet-wipe solution. The full ingredient list on the package is: water, chlorhexidine, glycerin, aloe extract, vitamin E, tea tree oil. The active ingredient here is the chlorhexidine, which is a common antibacterial agent. I looked up chlorhexidine on Wikipedia and PubMed, and it does not appear to be toxic or harmful like other antibacterial agents, i.e. triclosan. I am very concerned with the safety of triclosan, which is more commonly used in antibacterial products, and I'm glad to see that the EF wipes don't contain triclosan.
The glycerin, aloe, and vitamin E in these wipes are moisturizers. Tea tree oil has been shown to have antibacterial and antifungal properties. I like the scent of aloe and tea tree oil, but some people might not. Some people have allergies or other irritation reactions to tea tree oil; if you know you react negatively to tea tree oil, you probably shouldn't use these wipes. Also note that the packaging says the wipes are for external use only.
The final verdict: these are great as a free gift with another purchase, but I wouldn't buy them from EF on their own. They are too expensive per wipe with the current pricing, and I think some types of regular baby wipes would serve the same purpose just as well. For me, though, they're way more useful than other free gifts like the tote bag or the vibrating ring.

I agree with you, these are great as a free gift, but maybe a wee bit pricey to buy on their own.
