I really like that it has a strong smell for clothing and heavy items like back packs, blankets and pillows. I also love that this scent is nice, and very good for gym clothing. I would definitely recommend because the scent lasts a long time. I got this for testing purposes from Influenster.

I used this on all of our linens a few weeks ago and they still smell amazing. Plus the whole house smelled awesome. The cost isn't bad but it would add an extra expense to your laundry budget. I will be adding it for linens and towels. I received this product free for testing but my opinions are my own.

I loved this product! I washed a load of my gym clothes with the beads and I was able to work out, then leave the gym still smelling fresh! If you are sensitive to strong scents, this may not be the best choice, but I happened to really like how the beads smelled. I tested the Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free but all opinions are my own.

My husband has sensitive skin. Shortly after I started using this he broke out in a itchy rash. I did wash his shirts with Downy beads, the only difference in my normal routine. I loved the smell but because of his sensitivity, we can no longer use this product.

My family loves the Downy Fresh Protect beads! We have two little ones in daycare and one potty training; which means we usually have some sweaty, stinky, soiled clothes and blankets. Even after washing them, some smells linger. With the Downy beads all of our clothes, blankets, and towels come out smelling fresh and oh so good; and they stay that way until we use them! We will not be washing any more loads without them. Please note, we originally tested the Downy Fresh Protect for free; but all opinions are very much my own.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The downy fresh was nice. I like the fact you don't have to deal with the liquid and ball. I used the packet no my towels, and they came out nice and soft. I would recommend this product if u use downy.

These beads were so easy to use and smelled great, too. I popped them into my load of laundry and my clothes smelled fresh and clean after they were finished washing. I really loved the scent option I was given. I was provided the Downy Fresh Protect Beads for free, but all opinions are my own.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the Downy Fresh & protect Beads Botanical Mist made my throw blankets smell better than before the dogs claimed them as their own! I was a little upset that my favorite blankets had become my pets favorites too, but the Downy beads eliminated all pet odor and left them smelling amazing. This was super easy. Just throw in the beads with the laundry at the time you start the washer. No waiting for a certain cycle or worrying about putting them directly on the laundry. The beads are totally gone leaving only the great smell by the time you throw them in the dryer! I would highly recommend Downy Fresh and Protect beads. These are perfect for pet owners or parents. We all know how stinky those kids can be!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a BzzAgent an got a free sample to try for my opinion. I tried Downy fresh & protect beads botanic I loved the added boost of Bontanic scent to my laundry. I will definitely use again and recommend to try you will love it too!

The Downy Fresh Protect is a hard working product that left my smelly clothes smelling practically brand new after coming out of the wash! With it being summer in Florida of all places, it gets extremely hot and I sweat a lot sadly. Sweat is something that can really stink up clothes, even after they have been washed, but after trying out this product as a free sample, I will definitely be going out to buy some more of this product the next time I make a trip to the store!
