About the test

We asked 95 Netmums members and their families to try the Aldi Mamia Extra Sensitive Wipes.

They passed the test with flying colours: 93% would recommend Aldi Mamia Extra Sensitive wipes to friends and family.

Aldi Mamia Extra Sensitive Wipes are available now in stores nationwide.

Drum roll, please, for the verdict of our Netmums testers ...

1. Parents feel reassured they’re 99.4% water

With such high water content, the Aldi Mamia Extra Sensitive Wipes are about as close to cotton wool and water as a wipe can get - ideal for those who are nervous in making the transition to a wipe with a newborn, or those whose children have skin that becomes irritated by other harsher wipes.

’Lovely and moist.’

’I had been using cotton and water but I am happy with this as it feels exactly the same.’

‘They were lovely & moist.’

‘The perfect amount of water content.’

‘They feel like cleaning with water.’

‘Great moisture content.’

2. The fragrance-free formula is perfect for sensitive skin

Added scents are often an irritant to delicate skin, meaning parents can be easily reassured by these fragrance-free wipes. Our testers with children whose skin has been irritated by other wipes before were delighted that there were no such issues during this test.

’Great for super-sensitive skin.’

‘Great for super-sensitive skin and that's a plus for newborn babies.’

‘Very gentle for my babies.’

‘I think they are suitable for all babies, regardless of their sensitivity.’

‘They cleaned very well without causing a reaction.’

‘These were even better than the sensitive wipes I normally use as they had even less of a fragrance.’

3. No challenge is too big for these wipes

Just because this range of wipes is made for delicate skin, doesn’t mean it’s a delicate wipe. These thick wipes were described as ‘almost cloth-like’ by one tester and highly praised by many for not tearing or drying out quickly, as well as being so strong a single wipe could clean up messy hands as well as a messy face. Result!

’Up to the task.'

‘I felt these were strong and up to task.’

‘They really clean up well and don't dry out quickly.’

‘The quality is excellent.’

‘So thick - almost cloth-like.’

‘A good thickness, and do not tear when trying to deal with a soiled nappy.’

4. Mums and dads LOVE the amazing value for money

Parents with babies and toddlers use A LOT of wipes each day, so prices matter. But very few of our testers could believe such a quality wipe was available for so little. And not just because they cost so little, but because the high quality means you use fewer of them per clean up. A double value for money whammy!

'You save more by using less!'

‘Gentle on baby's bottom and on mummy's purse string.’

‘They are of a decent size and are thick enough, helping you save more by using less!’

‘Of a cheaper price than the "low-priced" ones that we currently purchase.’

‘These are excellent value for money.’

‘At 59p you can’t go wrong.’

5. Unlike a lot of wipes, these stay fresh for longer

Everyone’s experienced a packet of wipes where after just one wipe, the freshness has disappeared and any remaining wipes are too dry to be effective. Not these ones! Testers were repeatedly keen to point out that the moisture content of the wipes was maintained throughout the pack.

’Sealed well to keep them fresh & moist.’

‘The pack looked attractive and sealed well to keep them fresh & moist.’

‘Easy to open and reseal.’

‘The wipes are STILL good inside.’

‘They maintain a great moisture ratio throughout the whole pack.’
