Tester’s comments
Tester Emma Thomas says: “I was initially rather sceptical about a product which I considered to be an overgrown babywipe. However, I take back everything I said – they are quite simply brilliant. They smell wonderful and remove all traces of dust, grease and hair.
“I was shocked at just how much dirt is trapped on the wipe, especially as both my horses are groomed everyday.
“Gentle enough to use around the eyes and nose, they leave your horse’s coat clean with a wonderful shine. Unlike some silicone based coat sprays these wipes don’t leave a slippery residue.
“My only concern is the packaging, it doesn’t always re-seal, so in really hot weather the wipes might dry out. Transferring them to a sealed box is a better way of keeping them moist and clean.
“Generously sized, one wipe isbig enough to do the whole of 17.1hh gelding. One pack contains 10 wipes and costs £8, although they are probably too expensive to use everyday, no grooming box should be without them.”
