Favourite Fabric Softener

Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support AutomaticWasher.org:

How interesting to see such a variety of opinion - from those who prefer no FS at all, folk who enjoy light scents and others who prefer something more powerful.

I agreee that in many cases FS is not necesssary, though I tend to use a little in most washes as I find it helps the creases drop out. I do not iron anything.

Fabric conditioners which I have enjoyed aspects of are kept in stock and used when I feel like it. These include;

Lenor blue / yellow / white
Comfort blue / yellow white
Aldi white.
Tesco blue.

My daily driver and all time faveis not one of the above, and has the following qualities....

- It is from the only brand which completely flushes from the drawer leaving no fatty residue behind.
- It has a scent strong enough to leave some presence on fabrics, but not too strong as to waft from garments. Scent is neutral enough so that one does not become tired of it quickly.
- It does not foam up, leaving a residue on the door rubber or clothes. Due to this, and the ease at which it flushes through the drawer, I am comfortable it is not gunking up the machine internals too much. I only use a half dose.


Just for fun - can anyone guess what it is?

Thing With Moi

Is that many of the detergents in my stash already leave a wonderful scent on laundry, so why mess with a good thing?

Strictly speaking FS really isn't necessary. Most modern detergent powders aren't nearly has harsh as some of stuff of old, and the liquids certainly leave things feeling soft on their own.
 
I have taken to

blending a Downy Free refill and an April Fresh refill in a large Downy bottle.

I always use softener in every winter load, except for kitchen towels, and I only use it for underwear and bath towels in summer.

Fabric softener makes me happy. For those who are content without using it, fine!

Fabric Softeners

My favourite Fabric Conditioner has to be Lenor spring awakening, but i do miss the scent of Softlan from my childhood days.

dryer sheet ?

If I ever have bed bugs do dryer sheets really repel them? If so that is my primary use for dryer sheets.
Regarding washer fabric softeners I don't believe I have a favorite.
Also, regarding the dryer sheets which brand works best?
Thanks for your input
