The Green Screen Rating

This score is a ranking based on how natural, eco-friendly, and non-toxic a product is, and is rated out of a possible total 5 stars.

STARS: 3 1/2 out of 5
COMMENTS: This product receives the same Green Screen score as the All-Purpose cleaner, since the wipes are soaked in a solution of that cleaner. However, another 1/2 star is deducted because there is a disposability factor to these- every time you use one, it must be thrown out, creating extra waste. (Perhaps one day Mrs. Meyer's will use recycled fiber to make the wipes!)

In an age when most surface wipes contain harmful antibacterial agents like Triclosan, one of the biggest benefits of Mrs. Meyer's surface wipes is that they do not contain Triclosan (see The Problems with Triclosan).

Personal Recommendation

These wipes are perfect for a quick clean-up. I keep a packet in each bathroom, under the sink, and when the countertop and sink are starting to look like they need a cleaning, I pull out the wipes, wipe everything down, and we're good as new, in less than two minutes!

Additionally, I actually use these even more for camping and traveling in our VW bus. When we're traveling, I used to clean up with Lysol wipes, but then I had the harsh cleaner on my hands, and did not always have water available to rinse them, and that worried me. With Mrs. Meyer's wipes, I know that whatever is left on my hands is non-toxic and will not dry them out or irritate them like those harsh, conventional wipes.

Even though I use a bucket, All-Purpose cleaner, and a rag the most at home, there are times when I am in a huge hurry, or when I don't need an entire bucket of cleaner, and the ease of using a wipe is indispensable. (Keep in mind that these wipes are soaked in a diluted solution of the All-Purpose cleaner.)

SOMETHING ELSE...

I also find these handy to keep in the car for wiping down the dash and other surfaces occasionally.

"Ever since surface wipes came out, I have been searching for ones that don't smell like chemicals!  Finally, I have found Mrs. Meyers Geranium scent wipes.  They are great on my granite counter tops and even on my hard wood floors."
