BOTTOM LINE: This is hand’s down the best laundry product that you didn’t even know you should be using — and believe me, you should be using it. If you have to use non-scented detergents like my family, it’s an absolute necessity.Important Information: My entire family has sensitive skin but my sons’ sensitivies are severe enough that I can only use free&clear detergents so my review is based on my experience with a laundry detergent that offers literally no scent.PROS:- Safe for ALL skin types, including extremely sensitive skin and/or eczema- Ridiculously easy to use, pour beads into cap and cap into washer- Safe for any material you can put in your washer- Scent control by adding more or less beads to each load- Scent is fresh but not overwhelming to the senses- Freshens the entire laundry room as a side perk- Fresh smelling for up to 6 weeks (I can verify 3 weeks and counting so far from personal experience)CONS:- Honestly, there really aren’t any...it can seem expensive but it’s not for what it gives you, especially if you can’t use scented detergents- If you are sensitive to smells like I am, just choose a scent you are familiar with and can handle and start adding more and more beads to test tolerance with each loadSo, to my actual experience with this god send. It’s great that I know no one is being exposed to any excess chemicals but these detergents — and if you use them you absolutely know what I’m talking about — do NOT leave your clothes smelling “fresh out of the washer”. This is a huge problem for anyone with toddlers in the house, a teenage boy, and a husband — oh and a dog (I know).I have tried adding (and not exaggerating) up to 10 dryer Sheets at a time to even get a whiff of a fresh scent but it always faded immediately. I tried spraying the clean clothes with Fabric Refresher before and after the dryer but this also faded and smelled forced. I don’t have time to research essentials oils and what nots with 2 kids and, quite frankly, it shouldn’t be that difficult to get good smelling laundry. If all of that wasn’t enough, I have chronic migraines and I have to be exceptionally careful with scents because too much of even a good one can lead to a very bad day for me.So, I saw ads and promos for this type of thing before but honestly didn’t think that it could work or would work, was worried about whether it would irritate my kids’ skin, and if it was safe for everything or if I was gonna have to add another task to my pre-laundry summit, and finally if I was going to be playing Russian Roulette loaded with migraines. However, after one particularly horrifying potty training mishap, I was so frustrated By the fact I couldn’t get my son’s blanket smelling clean, I broke down and bought it. BEST DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE.After getting it, I was super excited to try it (see Pros above). The first time I tried it, I used half of a cap full because I wanted to check how strong the scent was (and I knew I was gonna wash that bedding a second time anyway). After the washer cycle was done, my entire laundry room smelled amazing and so did the blanket. It smelled fresh and clean and it wasn’t an overwhelming scent. I got nervous about how it would last after the dryer but the smell held and it continued to last throughout the entire week. I’ve used it in every single load since and it’s amazing the difference — I don’t dread laundry, I don’t worry that clean clothes don’t smell clean, and the scents last for weeks (found that out after washing winter blankets to prep for the upcoming season - 3 weeks in storage tub and counting) with added bonus of an awesome smelling laundry room to boot. I’ve used it on towels, dress shirts, bedding, jackets, and t shirts ofnjust about every machine washable material I can conceive of and it does not cause any damage what so ever.This product is awesome and I’m so happy I finally tried it. It’s worth the money and if you are as frustrated as I was, it cannot hurt to try and i sincerely recommend that you do.

Excellent product. Leaves fabric fresh and static free. Excellent value for cost.

Yummy scent! Stays a long time My clothes,sheets and towels are wonderful to lay on or use after bath/shower The scent there's no better. I used to use Gain Beads simply because it's cheaper. But the scent doesn't last and barely noticable. Yes theses beads cost more but soo worth it!

Love the smell and it keeps your clothes, sheets, comforter towels etc. smelling great for a long period of time .

The scent of these is so clean! Its a simple shake & go. I even put some in satchels and placed through the house as some smelly help. They leave your clothes smelling fresh for Days.

These are a game changer for fresh all day clothes! Do not use the recommended amount or you will be smelling a little too strong, that’s how well these work. Seems to go along way, and there’s a good amount for the price. Last long, cleans well and has a great scent.Also seems to condition the clothes and make them softer. Easy open cap and awesome scents! Works great!!!

Love this scent and this brand. Clothes smell wonderful. fresh not perfumed. Be sure to read instructions. Put these in before your water. They really don't dissolve in cold water needs to be at least warm to hot for them to dissolve. That is probably why they say to put them in first before you load your clothes so the water has more time to dissolve them. If thrown in on top, they may not work as well, that was my experience..

My sister did our laundry 1 time when our washer was broke and when she bought the clothes back omg they smelled so fresh and clean. Since that day I have been using this.The beads dissolve completely. You can put in the amount you want .I recommend this If you enjoy laundry that smells fresh
