    Not A Fan

    I really liked the scent of these in the bottle, but it did absolutely nothing for my laundry. I could barely smell it on my clothes after using it. I followed the instructions, and tried it again, but didn't get better results. I would expect more from an expensive laundry add-on.

    UN-Remarable

    I never did like the price point of this stuff, but of course if I was given a sample I'd take it. Or if it went on sale for a really really really cheap price and I found a coupon as well, I'd get it...but that was rare.

    When I did have some, my clothes smelled nice, though I also never had a dryer at that time. My clothes were always line dried. A few weeks ago I finally got a dryer!!!

    Knowing I was getting a new dryer I even went to Costco and bought 2 big bottles of Un-stopables. With my brand new propane drier setup I started washing and drying everything WITH the so called 'Un-stopables'...and my laundry came out smelling FUNKY! Why does my laundry smell funky?? My dryer doesn't smell funky, my washer doesn't smell funky, when I didn't put the Un-Stopables in my laundry it didn't smell funky! But when I add the Un-Stopables it smells funky.

    WTH??? Is it the Un-stopables?? Is it no good with propane dryers?? Won't be wasting money on that stuff again!!

    Too stinky

    I really did not enjoy this product..for the price and the quantity. I was not really happy plus the smell was so overpowering and clothes smelled like that for a few days..
    Definitely a non winner for me

    Clothespin your nose shut and don't breathe!

    We tried the Downy Unstoppables in the scent pictured as well as the regular Downy scented one. The smell of them both were so overpowering that it was nauseating. I gave all of it away. We regularly used Downy softener as well, but now I can't stand the smell of it either. We now purchase another brand.

    Artificial Scent

    I received a sample at the grocery store and tried it in our next wash. We didn’t like it. We found the scent to artificial. I had to rewash the laundry twice to get all the perfume out. Would not recommend it.

    The worst free sample I ever received at Costco!

    I always love to try new products..who doesn’t? Working in healthcare in a scent free environment for years, I cannot stand strong smells anymore. I never would have thought that Downy Unstopabled is as stinky as it is! It is so strong, so overpowering, I had to do the laundry again to get rid of the awful smell. I like Downy brand but this must be their worst product ever! Save yourself a headache and ignore the free sample you’re offered unless you want to stink a mile away.

    Downy down down down

    Using DOWNY UNSTOPABLES FRESH IN WASH SCENT BOOSTER was a horrible experience. It took me a while because it was so unexpected. I used it in my laundry most on bedding and towels. I noticed scratchy watery eyes. I felt like there was a cut under my eye...and I kept looking and feeling for it. I was convinced I must have have a cut because I have no allergies and I definately had never felt this before. I even thought maybe I developed an allergy to my cats so i stopped letting them come into my room. It went away and then the next time I washed a blanket I felt it again but this time I got stuffy and a scratchy throat and I could barely breathe...so strange and scary. Suddenly in the middle of the night I wondered and I removed the blanket from my room...within about 1 hour I could breathe again and my eyes felt much better. So I called Downy to let them know if my experience. I will ever buy Downy Unstoppables again and will let anyone with any sensitivity know about this...but even those with no sensitivies like me. :(

    Nope

    Was super disappointed with this product, it smells amazing in the bottle but found that after my wash all the scent faded, also I found I used alot more because I didnt smell anything, just a waste.

    What a waste

    I got these as a free sample and it's a good thing, too. The smell is horrible. I cannot imagine wearing clothes that smell terrible all day long. Will never buy this.

    Should be banned

    I think all Downy's Scent boosters should be banned, a lot of kids are getting allergies with all these scented products. And if there is people who you work with who have allergies, they have to sit there and smell it all day. I totally disagree with this product, sorry.
