Just a FYI, I use this in a different way. If you spray your carpet as you vaccum, the anti-static properties make it easier to get pet hair out of the carpet. The smell is just a bonus! Anyone who has a pet like my sheltie will absolutely love this.

I've been using this for about a week. My couch smells good, but I wanted a little stronger smell, so I put in about 4 tablespoons of Downy in a 32 ounce spray bottle. My house smells fantastic and the cost is outstanding compared to Febreeze. I just used this on white pillowcases, and it didn't stain. And the price can't be beat! I'll be using this from now on instead of expensive Febreeze. Thanks, B!

This is a GREAT ONE!!! It is fantastic - I used this when my son came to visit last weekend - I am a smoker and he is VERY ANTI - well I sprayed this all over the couches and pillows and drapes and he thought I had given it up!!! Also - a friend of mine told me that she uses this in place of the wrinkle-free!! I've tried it and it WORKS!! Another $5 spray bottle I don't have to buy - THANKS so much!!

I have been doing this for so long now, I could never live without it! My house always smells like it just came out of the dryer. In the winter it really helps get rid of static shock around the house too. I spray it on all the beds after I make them each day. Sooooo affordable!! Most of all, and anyone who has teenage boys knows this, it actually covers up that "boy smell" in my son's bedroom. And NOTHING, no matter how clean his room is, works better! Thanks for sharing this with everyone, Bethany!

Just another hint: I used to throw a dryer sheet into the dryer with jeans that need "freshening up" so my daughter can wear them "again" before wash... I NOW USE THIS!! Its GREAT! The stores now carry a product that is "wet dryer sheets" to do this same thing I do, but now they have to compete with BETH!! Thanks!

This is right on the money! Pun intended. Make sure to use a spray bottle with a mist setting or your furniture will take forever to dry. This is great! Thanks so much!

Hi I wanted to pop over and say that I have been using this for about two years now. I adjust the strength a little (4 oz) to use this as a de-wrinkler. I have used it for de-wrinkling clothes that I forget to take out of the dryer long long before they started marketing what you see in the stores now for the same purpose. I hardly use it for febreeze but it's great in the car for that purpose. My latest discoveries are this: It's a great softener for pesky hard to remove wallpaper. Use this stuff, a bit stronger than 4 oz BEFORE you go buy any expensive chemical..use the tiger blade thing that perforates the paper up, then mix this recipe with boiling water and spray on, then scrape with a stiff putty knife or other scraper. Works well on really old wallpaper! But, there's another great use...I used this to clean old grease film off of my upper cabinets and oven hood and vent screen. I just used a 4 oz strength, sprayed it on and used a double sided sponge scrubber to wipe it off. Also works well with magic eraser for soap scum in the bathroom. Also, softens stuck on burnt food or stove liners if you spray it on thickly and let sit overnight. It wont get burnt food right off, but it does soften it and makes it easier to remove! This stuff has pretty much replaced a lot of my old harsh chemicals and it smells so much nicer too! As an added bonus, my hands are softer after using this stuff. So, thank you so much...it's saved me a bundle. By the way, it has to be ultra downy. Snuggle or regular concentrates really don't do as well, for some reason. P.S. I send this to the military overseas and they really appreciate it because they are in smelly situations often. I have been able to send it travels well through the USPS, at least to the APO address I've been sending to.

I loved this! Not only does it work great, I feel so economical & "house-ly" knowing that I made it. Edited to say I used 4 tbs per Denise's suggestion.

I love this stuff too, and just a note...I always use distilled water so that I don't ever have to worry about water spots drying on any hard surfaces thanks for sharing!

This definitely doesn't need another review!! LOL But I had to tell you , not only does it work great for what it's actually FOR , but found another use for it , quite by accident! I keep it under my kitchen sink. Well, tonight I was doing dishes and afterwards the suds wouldn't go down ... I grabbed this and sprayed 3 or 4 times and BOOM , suds were gone and the sink smelled maaaaaaahvelous Great recipe! Thanks!!
