I am devastated by the change in formulation of April Fresh Downey. Please bring back the original formulation! I have been using it loyally for over 20 years and my mother used it before me. No more Downey for this family until the original comes back. This new version is disgusting. It doesn't smell like the original. At first it was thick and clumped up my machine and now is very watery. The other day I spent 15 minutes at the store opening all the bottles looking for one containing the original formula. Not all changes are for the better. Where can I find some original?

I'm very bad about running out of liquid fabric softener and taking forever to get some more. By then, I remember all the reasons why I love Downy's April Fresh softeners! My clothes are always super soft and smell sooooo good! Works great in my HE washer, too!

I never used the original Downy April Fresh fabric softener so I can't compare the newer version with that one. I like a lot of scent on my clothes and the newer version makes our laundry smell sooo good! My current laundry combo is Tide Original, Downy April Fresh and Bounce Outdoor Fresh dryer sheets. This laundry combo makes our laundry smell fresh and clean, soft and static free. If the newer version is too strong for you, I suggest cutting it 50/50 with an unscented fabric softener (it could even be a store brand version) or using less fabric softener per load. If you still don't like the newer version, you could try Snuggle Blue Sparkle.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The only fabric softner that is used in my house is Downey I love all of the scents, but I buy April Fresh the most. It keeps my clothes smelling good and soft. With four kids and a husband it is needed as much as laundry soap in my home!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Downy April Fresh Fabric Softener makes me feel refreshed just by opening up the dryer to fold laundry, snuggling up in my blankets and when using a bath towel. It is such a soft and comforting scent. Plus it reduces wrinkles and helps keep colors bright! What more could I ask for?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i love the scent of this downy. Fabric softener has always been a staple in my home and washing my sheets and towels with this was not at all a let down. I usually use a competitor but I may actually switch!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love Downey. This is the ONLY fabric softener I will ever use. After a week of washing my sweater I keep in the office, it stills smells amazing. I have had that sweater for a few years and it is not scratchy. It isn't attached out of faded. Thank you for making a great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Now that I finally made it to this great big pile of laundry to be done, I can tell you that this Downy is the bomb! Our clothes and linens smell so good and fresh! And soft, oh boy! The funniest part is that when our dogs lay on their blankets now, they also smell April fresh!! My whole house smells better! Great product & I will definitely buy this in the future!

I have used Downy fabric softener for years. Downy April Fresh is still my favorite scent of all. I used it when I had my first child and it made his clothes so soft and smooth, and smell great, yet gentle enough for a baby. He is 15 now and we STILL use it everyday. I'm so glad I got Ultra Down April Fresh free to test from influenster. All of my opinions are my own and I would recommend this fabric softner to all my friends and family.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using Downy April Fresh for almost a month now and I love it! This is my favorite fabric softener. I especially like this product because it's a liquid fabric softener. I just pour it in the washing machine and my clothes come out static free. It's so easy to use and I don't have to worry about cleaning up dryer sheets. I have also noticed using the liquid works alot better then the dryer sheets. When I use dryer sheets, some of my clothes still have static. The liquid mixes with the water and all the clothes are static free. I also love the fresh smell of Downy. It leaves all my laundry smelling clean. I will definitely continue using Downy because it works great and smells even better!
