The Bottom Line
The disinfecting wipes were great for quick times when I needed to prevent the spread of germs. They were not a useful cleaning wipe. This product would be great for use around sickness, or for routine maintenance around the home.

Guide Review - Clorox Disinfecting Wipes Review
The disinfecting wipes made a great standby for when I needed to quickly disinfect a surface. During a stomach flu epidemic it was convenient to wipe down doorknobs, toys, and the telephone quickly and often. I kept some on hand to disinfect shopping carts during grocery trips. The product is designed to be safe for most surfaces with a very pleasant smell in all of its varieties. Safe on many surfaces including acrylic, fiberglass, vinyl, painted wood, synthetic and wood laminate, stainless steel, aluminum, glazed tile, painted drywall, and enamel.
The disinfecting wipes aren't very effective to clean any surface that is more than lightly soiled because of the thinness of the actual wipe. Only 35 wipes come in a container, so depending on use, running out of the product could become a factor. To disinfect make sure you allow the surface to stay visibly wet for 5 minutes before surface drying. For nonporous surfaces allow to be visibly wet for 30 seconds. Do not use on unpainted wood.
