DownyNature Blends Fabric Conditioner (Fabric Softener), Rosewater & Aloe, 104 Loads Total, 44 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)

First, let me say I prefer the "liquid" softeners over those "beads." For one, they are ridiculously costly. And two, the amount the manufacturer "suggests" you use, is crazy. You'd go through one of their very expensive bottles..very fast. And if you do a lot of laundry...well, you get the picture.Back to DOWNE'S NATURE'S BLENDS. It not only does a wonderful job of softening, they have great scents, too. I have been a Downey fan for decades.. literally. And now with their expanded choice of beautiful scents, what's not to love? You really don't need to add much to even a full large load of clothes, or an oversized King comforter, for example. I do NOT add a full cup of softener. Ever. In all my 48 years washing (I'm 62) All you really needat most, is about half (1/2) cup to your FULL load. Less to a smaller load. Of course, in my earlier years I added too much softener. It's honestly overkill and not beneficial for any of the items being washed. Nor is it helping your machine. Many reasons machines become temperamental, clogged, "gook" can form way within the structure of your machine. Yes. Your washer. This is why they have specific measuring amounts for a reason.You can help keep your machine in top condition by using a "machine probiotic." That's one of the simplest. It usually comes in a package form with liquid. Follow specific but very simple instructions (empty machine of course :) Most come with about 6 pkgs. - one time per month.My wash routine is my usual detergent, andWashing Soda - 1 small scoop or approx 1/3 cup, (to help brighten naturally) White Vinegar to help neutralize, deodorize and brighten and my Downey Softener of choice.Why do I use all these? Because they are cost effective. So far. But more importantly, they work in unison to get my wash nice, clean and fresh and bright. Smells great too! Honestly, while I do have and use Bleach "on rare occasions," almost all the time I don't need to. Plus. It may sound strange to some, but I gave up "sorting" my laundry (with a few exceptions for some delicate items of course), YEARS ago. And all my wash comes out bright, white, vibrant, great smelling too.PS - After I complete ALL my wash for the day, I give the interior front a quick once over to dry with a cotton cloth I keep for this purpose. In addition, I quickly and easily remove (slide out) the detergent dispenser (if your machine is set like that). Water collects there from the wash that was done. Over time, it can build up mold if not dried at least occasionally.I have a terrific huge Westinghouse front loader. However, the previous owner, an elderly but sick woman purchased these. Only some wash was done so when I bought the home I got this great set.Upon doing the first wash here, I smelled a funky a smell. Not in the washer. Upon closer inspection, I saw some mildewfrom what I described "can" and will happen if not maintained at least twice weekly. I do after each wash day.I sprayed a combination of Bleach and water directly into the slot where the detergent goes. I did remove the portion that could be removed. On mine, its just like opening your drawer and pulling out completely. I let the Bleach mixture sit for about 20 mins. I cleaned the other portions at my sink.The "mildewy" area was gone. I then put my machine on (empty) a short, but hot cycle. This way the water would flow through and cleanse the bleached area. I then repeated another washing to completely get rid of anything.Everything was completely sparkling and more importantly, completely disinfected.

Good for ordering for college students

I love using fabric softener on my clothes to eliminate extra wrinkles and keep my laundry smelling great. Since I switched to a plant based detergent my clothes have been so much cleaner but the wonderful rose scent of my detergent didn't last. Not to mention that after putting my clothes in the hamper when clean to bring them home from the laundromat they were so wrinkled. I have always liked Downy so I figured if this was plant based I would give it a try. You only need a very little amount. The one time the bottle spilled and poured too much in the washer a few of my black clothes had softener stains all over them. Nothing was ruined they just needed to be washed again. I usually only use a full cap when I am using the largest washer available. Other than that a small amount is all you need. The clothes smell wonderful out of the washer. I use dryer balls with rose oil on them in the dryer and between the oil and this softener my clothes still smell great out of the dryer which never happens. I added this to my subscribe and save. The two bottles usually lasts me about 6 months doing laundry every two weeks for two adults.

Why have I been so scared to try this!! I love it!! I will say it seemed watery so I was leary but no need to be as it does everything our regular Downy has always done but better for Earth. The smell is much better than April Fresh or reg scents ... by a landslide. It is a sweet almost candy & light rose scent ... so hard to explain but I am NOT a rose fan and I LOVE THIS!! It's a nice sweetness, not sickening with has awesome staying power too ... as in weeks later on baby blankets, sheets. If u don't like much scent u may not like but as for us, we are purchasing our EIGHTH order today. So go ahead HATE IT or ignore this review, more of this secret deal for me & the other fans lol. Ps. To the reviewer who commented about thick, gross product, well, I noted she ordered in February. When fabric softener freezes it changes the consistency permanently to a gelatinous mess of separated goop. So please dont weigh much stock in that review. Sounds like it sat on a truck or a porch below freezing for way too long somewhere unfortunately. Again, my 8th reorder of this and NEVER going back, gl!

I've always LOVED Downy but the Rose/Aloe Downy has the BEST scent of any laundry product I have used. I could smell it 24/7 and never get tired of it The glorious scent lasts a long time and of course the softeness from Downy cannot be compared. Wish it was in stock right now but alas 😔 it is out of stock frequently.

VERY SUDDLE, relaxing clean scent. This is VERY hard to buy because it sells out so fast. LOVE THIS

I love the scent. Nice and floral

I found this by accident in Target one day and we fell in love with the scent. Since then, I have had a horrible time finding it in stores, so I am glad that Prime delivers. I hope Downy never cancels this softener as I intend to use it for the rest of my life. Smells amazing, softens beautifully. It also seems to clog up my washer dispenser far less than traditional Downy and other brands. I used to clean it out regularly to prevent mold, but I find I don't need to very often since using this softener for about 2 years now. It also doesn't cause an autonomic response in me like many softeners do. No complaints, only stars!
