Downy April Fresh Liquid Fabric Enhancer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have no idea why, but I've never used fabric enhancer before. I've used conventional dryer sheets, natural wet dryer sheets, and wool dryer balls. I was incredibly pleased with Downy April Fresh Liquid Fabric Enhancer - I gave it my first go-around with my sheets, and now I'm never going back. They smelled so good and were so soft that I immediately just wanted to lie on them. There was ZERO static. The softness and scent lasted until the next washing. I've done about ten loads of laundry with this product and I have really noticed a difference in the softness and lack of static cling. I'll have to give it a longer trial run to see if it helps maintain color - that would be a huge bonus. The only complaint I have is that the instructions said to shake the product before use. I did, and when I opened the lid to pour into the cup and dispenser, there was quite a bit of spillage.

Freshness and Convenient Packaging

The product comes in an eco-friendly pouch that is easy to store. This scent is quite strong and leaves freshness in the fabric, making laundry refreshing. It did a good job of softening the clothes and reducing static so that clothes stay soft and cozy after washing. The flexible packaging makes it easy to pour or navigate. I buy it to test out the smell so I will probably buy the big container. The price seems well set for the amount of loads it will cover. I highly recommend this scent.

Downy will be used permanently in my home!

I loved using the downy sample I received on my children's bedding. Not only did it give it a great clean scent, it also made it have the softest feeling it has ever had. Downy is definitely my go to softener when it comes to my children's bedding and clothing.

Great Smelling for days

This fabric softner I believe can kill any bad smell. I placed the bottle in a small closet and coulr literally smell it every time I opened the door. I love pulling my clothes out of the dryer and smelling this come out. While the softness is not to much of a difference then when I don't use it the fact that the fresh smell last on my clothes for days and even weeks after , is the reason that I keep coming back to this brand. I received this product free in exchange for my honest feedback.

Downy makes clothes so soft!

When I use Downy it makes my clothes so soft and smell so good. I never wash my clothes unless I use Downy. I use downy everyday when I wash clothes. I love that it doesn't take much Downy poured into your washing machine and still get the great benefits of soft and clothes smelling good. Downy® Fabric Softener for free, but all opinions are your own.

Used to be good!?!?!

I don't know what you did to the original formula. Downy used to work great and smell nice. Now it gets all clumpy and clogs up the dispenser (which I clean frequently). You blame the thickening on temperature extremes. They must have happened during shipment to the grocery store. This never used to happen before, I would bet that you changed the formula to save money. Hard to believe that temperature is to blame, we have lived in the same climate for 50 years. I can't use this stuff and would like a refund.

Smells So Good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the scent so much. It really makes if feel like spring even inside in the basement. It's as if you were walking next to a little garden shop and the wind caught the scent and it flowed to you.

Amazing love it

I was at first hesitant to use this product because I have sensitive skin, However the smell is Amazing I first tried it out on my bedding and can feel the difference my sheets are so much softer and smell so fresh and clean. I am very happy with this product. I did receive this product for free to test but all opinions are my own

Scent has changed

I've used April fresh for as long as I can remember. I'm in my 30s. My mom used the same scent as long as I can remember also. BUT something is different. I thought the packaging looked different but didn't think anything of it. Then when I opened it- whoa! The scent was overpowering. Washing a load of clothes with it fills my entire 2 story 2700 sq ft house with the smell. I'm not exaggerating. I don't even fill my downy or detergent to the first line of the cup. I never have (a professor filled us in on that once-washes the same and makes the bottle last longer) but the scent is ridiculously strong still. Not only is it strong but it's altered. Please. Please. Please change April fresh back to the clean classic smell.

April fresh is Jello in the bottle...

This product comes out of the bottle as a gummy mess. Even after one adds water to the dispenser, the Downy tends to clog up the dispensing apparatus. Worst of all, their web site does not allow me to share my complaint with them. Now, I am stuck with 90 fl. oz. of nice smelling goo.
