Love Downy!

I have always been a loyal Downy user, so I was extremely excited when I received my free sample from Influenster for testing & review. I love the scent, my clothes look & feel great & really hold their shape. Downy really does work! I'll be a continued customer for sure!

Fresh for days!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think that Downys April fresh smell just like the name. I washed my clothes at the laundromat and the smell is very good. When I took it out of the dryer I wanted to lay down on my sheets immediately.

What happened?!

Dear Downey Makers:Today, about half way through the bottle, the liquid TURNED INTO SLUDGE! WHY does my Downey turn to thick, foamy sludge? I tried to thin it out by adding water to the container, but that didn't even phase the thickness. Please help me and probably other users understand what's going on.Tharon Foster

This product is like no other

I have sensitive skin and discovered years ago that Downy is the fabric softener for me. Downy does not irritate my skin and I've used it exclusively for over 20 years. I love the smell of Downy. On occasion, I am asked what detergent or fabric softener I use and I proudly advise it's the fabric softener you're smelling and it's Downy! Grateful for this product!

Not The Same Anymore

Downey's not what it used to be. I can't put my finger on when it changed but it's definitely changed and not for the good. It no longer has the same softening/anti-static effect as it used to. I have to add dryer sheets also. DEFINITELY does not smell the same either. Disappointed. I suppose the younger generation won't know the difference but I'm in the middle range and KNOW what it used to be like. I'm 55 and it was a much better product even just 10-15 years ago.

Love this stuff

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn’t used to be a fabric softener user. Once I spend a whole day running loads of laundry with fabric softener, I can honestly say I’ll probably never go back. With small children I do laundry every day. Sometimes clothes come out dry and stiff and the color fades fast sometimes sometimes my clothes were dry and staff or the color faded too fast. I have now found that with using downy fabric softener, my clothes are not only softer when I take them out, but the color is fading a lot less. I also enjoy the fresh scent The fabric softener leaves behind on my clothes. When I washed my sheets for my bed, it was so wonderful laying down and having them smell so fresh. I will never go back to not using fabric softener again. This is a life-changing move

Let's make Downy great again!

I've switched to another brand of liquid softener since the transition from the original Downy, through the scent bead migration, and now what can only be described as a joke product April Fresh with fabric protect. Oh and it's no longer fabric softener, it's fabric conditioner. What a waste of marketing. Let's make Downy great again America! Also either bad programming or skewing, i gave this product the one star it does not deserve and my android is turning it into four. liars.

Leaves Laundry Smelling Great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Downy April Fresh Liquid Fabric Enhancer left our clothes, blankets and towels smelling fresh and clean. Our laundry felt softer and smelt better than it has in a while! There was no residue feeling on it, either, which sometimes happens with fabric softeners. We are now fans and will continue to use it on a regular basis!
