Dryer Sheets

[Chetlaham]

Does anyone else use dryer sheets? I thought I would give these a try as I love the scent. I also don't like the idea of liquid softner in the washing machine so I use it on occasion.

I'll stick with Downey, diluted with warm water.
Today's load of T shirts and sweatshirts came out nice, as usual.
I don't like those dryer sheets, never did, I don't care what they smell like.
Just my two cents....

I've used sheets a few times, probably no more than three boxes over the past forty years. Sheets presumably require contact with fabric, I don't think they distribute evenly throughout the load vs. liquid products.

I don't use softener on every load.

Thank you for the input. I'll keep this in mind and see how this load turns out. For me softner is more often about the smell than the softness. No smell is great, but sometimes a warm towel with a touch of lavender or spring flowers perks me up.

I usually use them. Some people are heavy handed with them (using 3 per load), but usually will only put 1 or 2 in at most.

Not one of those scent fanatics, but sometimes just want things to smell clean as assurance for the effort put in.

Nope. Inhaling some unknown chemical fragrance getting into the fibers of my sheets and towels gives me a big NO. I also didn’t think it would be good for my dog to inhale that dryer sheet fragrance on his towel bedding. I just use Purex no scent liquid detergent and that’s it.
