What it does
Three 75 count canisters of Clorox's bleach free disinfecting wipes, split between Crisp Lemon and Fresh Scent.
- Pre-moistened wipes that clean and disinfect in one step
- Bleach free formula that Clorox says will not discolor surfaces
- Clorox lists use on more than 100 household surfaces, including sealed granite, finished wood and stainless steel
- Clorox says it helps prevent odor causing bacteria for up to 48 hours
- Clorox lists influenza A2, human coronavirus and SARS-CoV-2 among what it kills when used as directed
A dependable pick for quick daily wipe downs of counters, handles and other hard surfaces, with a short wet time and a long list of surfaces the maker says it is safe on. The trade-off is a wipe that dries a little fast and does less on sticky, greasy grime than a heavier cleaner.
