Seems to do what they claim

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Downy has quite a few claims regarding the benefits: Softens, freshens, reduces wrinkles, reduces fuzz and pills, prevents static, keeps colors bright. On some it is hard to tell if makes a substantial difference but it seems to work. I washed a sweater recently that previously came back from the cleaners a touch faded and a little pilly. The next time I washed it myself and used Downy. It looked good after the wash. I was afraid it would further fade or pill more but it did not and if anything looked a little better. In general, the reduced static and fresh scent are very noticeable benefits. While hard to tell if there are less wrinkles, and reduced fuzz and pills, I am not noticing wrinkles and fuzz/pilling problems so it is difficult to argue that it does not work. For the more obvious benefits alone it is worth it. A little goes a long was as opposed to some of the cheaper fabric softeners out there and if you get some of the other benefits over time it is an added bonus.

Fantastic Fabric Softener!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the Ultra Downy April Fresh fabric softener is awesome! It left my laundry super soft. It has a strong scent, but it's not too overpowering. I could still smell it on my clothes days after I washed them which was nice.

Best scented fabric conditioner.

I love Ultra Downy April Fresh Liquid Fabric Conditioner. I always use this fabric conditioner every time for laundry. I just need put 1/3 of cup for medium loads, 2/3 of cup for large loads, 1 full cup for full capacity loads. It brings lasting freshness for all my clothes. My clothes’s colors are protected. Beside, this fabric softens, fights stretch, reduces wrinkles, anti-static, anti-fuzz. All my family members like the fresh scent and feel comfortable when putting clothes on.

Love this stuff

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Downy fabric softener for year, just not this scent. I have boys that play baseball and their uniforms can get dirty and stinky. I wash uniforms at least twice a week and the shirts always come out smelling clean and wrinkle free. My sons didn't seem to like the smell of this one; they said it smells too "girly". I think they are just thrown off since the lid is pink. I like the smell and it isn't too strong. I like the the closets still smell like clean clothes a few days after laundry day.

Soooo FRESH!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this stuff!!! My hubby is a steel worker and his work clothes get down right GROSS! Sometimes they need washed twice...it's that bad! I decided to give Downy April Fresh Fabric Conditioner a try. WOW! I could smell the clean fresh scent as soon as I took them out of the wash! But the real test was seeing if the scent "survived" the dryer! Oh my goodness!! Amazing!!!! Not a single wrinkle and they smelled April Fresh! And so soft, which is a pretty difficult task on heavy duty work uniforms! Absolutely incredible!!

Very Disappointed

I've been a Downy user for 20 years and with my latest bottle of April Fresh with Fabric Protection I am very disappointed with the scent. It does not smell the same as it has for years. It has a strong perfumey smell that is not pleasant and unfortunately I will no longer be using it. Guess I have to find a new fabric softener.

First time user! I'm hooked.

I have always been a dryer sheet user. First time trying out the liquid stuff and I love it. Laundry is already a loathed chore, but the new liquid has brought back a new softness to my clothes, and especially my kids blankets which is always a bonus. Throwing it in at the same time as the detergent makes it one less step I need to think about between the other tasks of daily happenings. I will definitely be a liquid user from now on, and I can't wait to try more scents!I received this sample of Downy® Fabric Softener for free, but all opinions are your own.

Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always been a fan of Downy fabric softeners, though I usually use their non-scented products. I've washed a handful of loads using the Downy April Fresh, and my items smell quite delightful. I washed my duvet cover using this product, and even my husband noticed the new scent. It's not overpowering, and doesn't bother my skin at all. I will continue to use non-scented products for certain loads, but will keep April Fresh on hand for clothes and linens.

Downy April Fresh smells amazing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't realize how much I loved Downy until I washed a load of laundry, hung it up and then a week later pulled out a shirt to wear and it still smelled amazing. My clothes have never smelled so clean. I have found my new favorite fabric softener!!!
