Was brought up in another thread, but not as to hijack started another to get opinions.
Recall years ago P&G released a similar Downy product that was only around for a hot minute. Had one known it was going to be discontinued so fast would have stocked up. In theory most all fabric softeners help with creasing, make ironing easier and so forth. Has anyone tried this new Downy and care to report findings? Might be something useful for loads where one doesn't use starch (dress shirts, bed and table linen), but still iron. |

What brand is that front-load pair at the very end of the commercial?
Also: If commercial-world had child protective services, I would call them because the mom yanked that girl into the house in a most aggressive manner. Having said that, I’m sold. It’s already on my shopping list. And I’m going to yank the bottle off the shelf in a very aggressive manner and throw it in the cart, LOL. |

That was the product! Was racking my brain trying to recall what it was.
Had one blinked would have missed Downy Advanced, it wasn't on shelves long before being discontinued. Nor was there much inventory left around it seemed because have seen very little of it about afterwards. Sort of makes one wonder what horrible things P&G discovered about the product that got it pulled so fast and completely. *LOL* |

Mother's "aggressive" snatching of her daughter away from the cute ginger seems out of concern he was or had done something he shouldn't with his date. Evidence of this was his wrinkled clothing.
OTOH she seems satisfied nothing went on subsequent date because the kid's clothes aren't rumpled. Though we get to see the lipstick mark that mother missed. Such aggressive "yanking" of a daughter/sister/young woman is (and has been) fairly common both in media and life when a parent/guardian or whoever believes they are in moral danger. *LOL* Comments on YT for this video are hilarious. But it does seem as if the young ginger actor (Josh) is becoming the next "it" thing. |

I used Downy Advanced, worked nicely on shirts and jeans. Have a sample saved, came with the Neppy TL IIRC. May no longer be viable but don't want to open the package to check.

You know, I may just wait for the unscented version, too. I have a bottle of unscented Downy, which is noticeably thinner in consistency than regular Downy. It gets infrequent use because of the way I sort loads these days.
They are a nice young couple and very clean/tidy, but boy howdy do they like the scents! Aside: They have a small-tub Maytag Dependable Care washer, with its distinctive chug-chug-chug agitation sounds.
Here's another commercial for Downy WrinkleGuard that leads me to believe our young man's interests may extend beyond M'lady. |

Bought a bottle of Downy WrinkleGuard Fresh scent a couple months ago. Kinda expen$ive @ $6.94. First use on a load of shirts yesterday. There're little globules of product residue sticking inside the cap. Adding hot water to the dosage in the cap and swishing didn't melt/flush the residue away. Bad indication for residue potential in the machine. :-( But ... the diluted product didn't leave any appreciable residue in the dispenser cup (AquaSmart flushes the cup five times). Very sweet resultant scent coupled with Persil liquid detergent. Seems to have a noticeable and positive effect on the shirts.

Downy "wrinkle guard" seems to be moving rather well going by what one sees in local shops. Other versions on shelf are full, but Downy WG is either sold out or just a few bottles remaining.
Would love to have a go, but cannot justify purchasing another bottle of FS. Besides still having several bottles of Vernel rose scent haunting me (and slowly degrading), there's two gallon jugs of commercial product, two new bottles of Caldrea (plus two opened and want using), two canisters of Ecolab industrial/commercial laundry product, and almost full container of industrial/commercial laundry softener/sour. So you can see am quite well stocked with FS, and likely would provoke the wrath if brought anything else into this house. |
