Smell fantastic all day long
I am a Downy girl!! There's nothing better than smelling great all day and having people tell you how good you smell! My blankets, sheets, towels, and quilts smell absolutely fabulous. The cost is minimal for the freshness and you can use as much or as little as you like. I do not use anything else

Great smelling softener.
I love this smell. After each use your clothes will be softer and smell so good. It’s inexpensive and can be bought online and in stores. It’s also so easy to use with each load of clothes.

Smells so good and reduces static too.
I love the classic scent of downy. It creates a barrier on the fabric to reduce static. You get a lot of loads for the bottle size. Refill packages in earth friendly bags would be nice.

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!

What a mess with shipping
Target sucks at shipping this along with other products busted and they refused to refund me. This is NOT the first time.
