Good Clean (Pricey) Fun
If this package had 20 wipes instead of ten (for the same or just slightly more cost) I would be able to recommend it with a huge happy smile. Because it's a great product, and very high quality. It's just too expensive for this busy sexual beaver to use on a regular basis.

Pros
Smell nice, soft, easy on skin.
Cons
Expensive.
I have really sensitive skin, so the only time I've used anything besides regular (albeit gentle) soap on my hoohaw is when I go to get waxed. My wax place offers up these lovely unscented, gentle wipes that make me feel like it's officially okay for me to hop up on the table and spread my legs for a near stranger.
Which brings me (sort of) to these wipes.
First impression: They smell really nice, without being overly cloying, perfumey or in any way icky. And they're soft. Like, really really soft. Like a baby blanket soft. I have no idea what trickery of technology and magic makes them feel like this, but I want some for my own.
Scent and Sensitivity (the non-Jane Eyre version): I had no trouble at all using this wipes on any part of my body, which is a rarity. And a bit of a delight. The scent lingers a little, but it's certainly not in a bad way. Beware, though: many people have a sensitivity to tea tree oil which is a main ingredient in these wipes, so be sure to try them somewhere 'safe' (back of knee, inside of arm) before you go putting them between your legs.
Uses: As mentioned, these are great for the body. They're also great for toys. I like the fact that I can keep them in the bedroom and use them to clean off toys before and after play without having to get up and go find a sink.
Cost: This, for me, is the only downside of these wipes. Granted, they're fluffy and soft and smell nice and make me all happy and clean, and there certainly should NOT be a price cap on that. However, for most of us, price is important. And for only 10 wipes, eight dollars seems a little on the pricey side. Or maybe it's just that I have a lot of sex, but I started thinking in my head: Okay, if I used just one of those every time I used a toy or had sex, they wouldn't last half a week. Which would add up, and fast. So, for me, they'd be a great thing to have around as backups, for the occasional, "Damn that sex was so good I can't get up and wash the toys right now" moment.
One More Thing: My only other complaint is that the date stamped on the package was long out-of-date. While this doesn't seem like a huge deal -- I don't know the half-life on fuzzy cloths loaded with tea tree oil but I'm guessing they can live on and work for a long time after their "use by" date -- it is something to consider (especially considering the cost). If I'd bought them, I would have definitely sent them back. UPDATE: The stamped-on date is apparently NOT the use-by date, but the born-on date. I wish that was clearer, but now you know!

Follow-up commentary
20 days after original review
Still like them very much. Have used them all, sadly, and because of the price, I doubt I'll be buying any more. But they worked really, really well.

Thank you for viewing Eden toy and body wipes – wipes discontinued review page!
"Married with Children", have you compared ingredients with the Costco ones? I'm wondering if they are also anti-microbial.
