Wonder Wipes: Durable, Fresh-Scent, and Very Effective
These wipes are truly wonderful, helping you clean sex toys and skin in a quick, safe, easy manner! From the packaging to the wipes themselves, the product is durable and effective! I recommend this item to anyone who wants to save time cleaning up their toys! Since I got these wipes for free, I really cannot complain about the price I paid. Though as a college student on a budget, I find the full price a bit high for 10 wipes.

Pros
cleans even butt plugs, makes clean-up faster
Cons
expensive
Upon the arrival of these wipes, I had low expectations. How could a wipe be anything special? However, I soon found that these wipes were no ordinary wipes, these were wonder wipes.
Functionality - Effective and Body Safe
I have cleaned my silicone, plastic, and metal toys with these wipes, and all of my toys appear as if I have washed them with soap and water. After wearing a metal butt plug for many hours, I cleaned the toy with the Eden wipes. The metal was shiny and the surface felt smooth to the touch. Even more impressive, there was no odor, just the nice, fresh, clean scent of the toy wipes. The scent of the wipes is pleasant and refreshing, not overpowering or perfume-like.
You can also use these wipes on your skin since the ingredients, Water, Chlorhexidine, Glycerin, Aloe Extract, Vitamin E, Tea Tree Oil, are all body safe. Chlorhexidine is an antiseptic, which keeps your toys free of bacteria. The Glycerin is sometimes found in soaps and can help dissolve unwanted lube, cum, or other such substances from your sex toys. The Aloe, Vitamin E, and Tea Tree Oil will all help to soothe the skin.
Size & Appearance - Strong fabric, convenient size
Compared to generic brand baby wipes, the Eden wipes are much more dense. The material in the Eden wipes seems to be woven tighter, making the fabric more durable and able to clean sharp edges and crevices in a toy.
I found the size of the Eden wipes to work perfectly for cleaning off my toys. There was enough fabric to sufficiently clean a toy without excess material to get in the way.
Packaging - Durable, travel-sized package
The wipes came in a travel-sized package, perfect to stick in your purse or slip into your nightstand. The package is very discreet in size and can be easily hidden away should guests come over. The wipes do have advertisements for EdenFantasys that offer valuable information about the company, formatted in an organized fashion within the fun, yet classy design. However, included on the front is the tagline, "The Sex Shop You Can Trust," which means that passing off these wipes as hand wipes or baby wipes will not work should someone find them in your purse.
The package is quite durable, withstanding attempts to rip the edges. So, the package will certainly survive the wear and tear of being grabbed in the heat of the moment or sitting at the bottom of a toy bag. I especially liked the flap of the package and the tape that covers the opening. Unlike many packages of makeup wipes or hand wipes that you will find, the tape is twice as wide as the opening and very sticky. This ensures that the package will remain sealed and the wipes will not dry out.
Comparison
I wanted to see how well the Eden wipes cleaned up lube compared to other wipes, so I set up an experiment. I used a plastic binder divider as my testing area. I tested three separate lubricants, a silicone-water hybrid lubricant (Hybrid), a water-based lubricant (Water-Based), and silicone lubricant (Silicone). I smeared a line of each lubricant onto the plastic, then swiped a wipe through the lubricant to see how well the wipe cleaned the lube off of the plastic. I used three separate wipes, one was a generic brand baby wipe (Baby Wipe), the second was the Eden Toy and Body wipe (Eden Wipe), and the third was a sex toy wipe from a different company (Other Wipe). I ran each wipe through all three lubes twice.
As you can see from the picture above, all three wipes cleaned most of the lube off of the sheet. However, the baby wipes and the Eden wipes cleaned the most off of the plastic. Meanwhile, the different company's wipe left a visible line of lube behind. So, the Eden wipes are clearly superior to the other brand, however the difference between the baby wipes and the Eden wipes are not as immediately clear. I hypothesize that the baby wipe is slightly more textured than the toy wipe, thus scrubbing off more lube in fewer swipes of the wipe. However, upon closer inspection, the Eden wipe left the least amount of residue, making the Eden wipe the winner of this test. The wipe cleans off the water-based lube the easiest, then the hybrid lube, then the silicone lube, which is as expected since silicone lubes are known to be long lasting.
I repeated the test for dried lubricants that dried overnight. I found that all of the wipes required scrubbing to remove the lube, however, the Eden wipes left the least amount of residue.

Experience
These wipes are convenient and such a time-saver. I live in a college dorm, so I usually need to conceal my toys as I rush to clean them in the single stall bathroom in my dorm without anyone seeing what I am carrying. These wipes clean the toys very well allowing me to do a quick cleanup after a play session without risk of embarrassment. While I would still probably clean up my toys with soap and water afterwards to make sure there is no remaining fecal matter (I can be anal about that!), lube, or cum on my toys, with the Eden wipes, I have the luxury of doing this on my own time.
Follow-up commentary
4 months after original review
This is still one of my favorite products. I really appreciate that EdenFantasys offers this as a free gift with any purchase. If you haven't already discovered this, here is the link! These toy wipes smell very clean and fresh.
Many times, I play right before bed. I know I need to clean my toys before I fall asleep but it seems like too much effort to drag myself to the bathroom to wash them. This is a great alternative. On toys that are small or don't have much lube on them, one wipe will do the job. Sometimes after I use my dildo for anal, there is a fair amount of lube still on the dildo. In that case, I need two wipes. If I've used the wipes on an anal toy the night before, I usually wash the toy with water in the morning just to be safe. However, from what I can tell, the wipes get the job done.

Thank you for viewing Eden toy and body wipes – wipes discontinued review page!
Good job of turning a boring subject a great review. We got one of these too. Worked great. Best toy cleaner we found is the Cleene by Wicked. Often it is offered on the checkout page on EF. We did a review w vid on it. Great stuff for toys. Not for the bod.
