Personally I find these a little expensive, but I do a lot of laundry. These do smell really good though, and the scent lasts. There is something I love about the smell of this when I'm putting on some cozy pajamas. It just makes me feel clean and relaxed. If you're the kind of person who really takes notice to the smell of your laundry and genuinely enjoy that experience, these are worth it. I just think the price is a bit high if you do a lot of laundry.

After using Downy April fresh beads int he laundry my clothes smell awesome. The fresh smell is something I always want to smell on my clothes and the beads certainly helped with that a lot. Their fresh scent and are so easy to use - just pour into the machine first and then load the rest. The smell is invigorating and so fresh after you do that alone. The clothes smelled wonderful. I highly recommended Downy fresh product beads. I got a free sample of this product but all opinions are my own.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never purchased a Downy product and was skeptical about this one. Laundry detergent's job is to make clothes clean and make them smell good. I expect that and because of that mindset prejudged this product to be simply a money maker. But, I gave it a try and threw it in with my normal detergent to see what happened. What happened was my clothes came out smelling great and the fresh aroma really lasts. The real test was my young son's lovey bear that desperately needed a bath. I threw Bear into the wash with the Downy and two weeks later, after being toted here and there, hugged tightly at night and dragged through the dirt outside, I can still smell the freshness. Never has Bear been so delightful to be around. My son loves it, too. If it can do this for Bear, think what it can to for other stinky laundry. Just this one try convinced me and I have since become a regular user. I don't know if it does anything for the fabric, but it definitely does what it claims to do and protects against odor. I'm looking forward to trying the other scents.

I love this product. It has a great scent and it is super easy to use. You just take a capful and throw it in the washing machine with your clothes and then you carry on like you typically would. I will definitely buy this product. I received this product in exchange for my honest opinion.

I have a Division 1 sports child that has been home for a month and hasn't done laundry yet. This certainly couldn't hurt and the horrendous smell of her sports clothes was awful. Well I was positive I was going to have to wash these clothes twice, but remembered my free samples and opened one and through it in. Well these clothes that I didn't have much hope for came out smelling fabulous. If you have sports in your house these are a necessity..I received my samples for free and am thrilled with the outcome.

So a little background about what goes into my weekly laundry basket: I work at a very physical, dirty, outside job. I regularly come home covered in dirt and blood and straw. I work in the rain and the snow and the extreme heat. So when I come home covered in sweat and dirt with blood and mud on my clothes, you can bet that my laundry room stinks, but when I use the downy beads my clothes smell like nothing has happened. They're also great for bedding because the scent lasts even as the sheets and blankets sit in a closet but it work awesome for my smelly dirty daily laundry too! Now I did receive a sample of these complimentary from Influenster in order to give my opinion, but my opinions said here are my own. I actually used this product before I received it =)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So, I wash my clothes as normal. Not a fun job, but someone's got to do it. Put all the clothes away. Go about business as usual. I go over a week later, take out my work shirts, I can not believe it. The most heavenily scent of clearness you could ever imagine. So fresh, so clean. I can't believe it. I will definitely buy this product. I'm a scent person. Like when you walk into someone's home drive in their car, scents give memories or good feelings. To have my clothes smell this close to pure awesomeness is amazing!!!

My husband is a cop and when he wears his bullet proof vest he wears a shirt brand called Under Armour over the vest. Well it smells and it smells badly! I have never been able to get the scent out completely. I tried these fresh protect beads and the scent is gone! All of the laundry I used these with smell so good! I will definitely be buying these. I received these fresh protect beads from Influenster to sample and review.

I wanted to love this product more than I did. My machine washer doesn't have a hot water hook up and the beads didn't "melt or dissolve" and got stuck to my clothes. However my clothes were doused with fragrance ! Maybe make an option for cold water washers? Please note that I received this product as a sample trial for free for review purposes through influenster. The opinion however is my own.

I was so excited to revive this product in my influenster voxbox. This product was free for reviewing purposes, and 100% my opinion. I am so in love with these beads. I love downy products already, but these are 10 times better. They make my clothing smell so amazing all day long. I will now only purchase these!
