Q: several family members with severe allergies to perfumes and scents, does Afresh have any smell or scent?
submitted by E - 5 years ago
A: YES, it now has an added fragrance. see the photo of the ingredients list in my review.
submitted bytwin mom - 2 years agoA: The affresh® washing machine cleaner, dishwasher cleaner, coffee maker cleaner, cooktop cleaner, and ice machine cleaner do not have an added fragrance. Any noticed scent in these products is a byproduct of the ingredients. All of our stainless steel cleaning products and our cooktop cleaning wipes feature a fruit scent, while our machine cleaning wipes smell like lemongrass and our disposal cleaner leaves a citrus scent.

Afresh washing machine pods
They were in not in pods form and didn’t clean my washer as expected. I wouldn’t recommend this brand since they don’t take ownership of it.

It works!
If your clothes have little brown chunks it's past time to clean your washer. My whole life ive never had chunks on my clothes but these new HD machines are not like the ones growing up! It's disgusting to see what's under the agitator so just these alone aren't going to help you need to take your washer apart and get the build up out

Poor overall packaging
Item itself is great, but the way order was packaged, this item was pulverized.

works great to clean my washer
These packets are very simple to use. I like to keep a box around all the time so when I notice my washer needs a clean, I can run a quick cycle. These are effective.

Poor handling
Love this cleaner. Unfortunately one of the three boxes came damaged and the cleaner was split everywhere on my order and thought the box. Disappointed that target would ship something that you can clearly see was damaged.

Do not recommend
I don’t recommend this product. This product left a residue at the bottom of my washing machine. The residue was very difficult to clean and still after a month of washing clothes a film remains. My washing machine is only a year old. Very frustrating, especially when this is supposed to be a “cleaner”. Don’t waste your money!

I purchased this Affresh washing machine cleaner to deep clean our washing machine for spring! Prior to using, I was having some issues with oil stains remaining on our clothes. This product seems to have help. My only wish is that it was unscented, as we otherwise avoid artificial fragrances in our home.
