I like the downy ball but it doesn't always open in my washer.

I liked it and my daughter, when 3, thought it was fun to throw into the washer. The top does wear out after a few months but at least I didn't have to keep running to the washer to add the fabric softner

Great especially, I don't have to remmeber to put in farbic softner...great product.

Before I got a washer with a bult in dispenser I used this thing religiously. The only thing I didn't like about it was that water would get trapped in it after it opened. Otherwise, this product was great and if I didn't have a bult in dispenser I would still be using it.

Sounds like a great product, have looked around my area & cant seem to find one tho :(

I love this product as I am a liquid fabric softener user and hate trying to catch the rinse cycle! Once in a while the ball won't open as it should, other than that it's GREAT!!

I love my downy ball ! Just toss it and forget it

I have had success using the Downy ball. I typically skip liquid softener since I do not like to wait for the rinse cycle. But the Downy ball makes it easy for mom's like me who want the most for the least amount of time and money. I can fill it, toss it in with the load in the beginning and forget about it. Occassionally the ball does not opem but it works perfectly the majority of the time.

The first time I used it the ball came open but the times after that it didnt. Pretty sure I was just sleep deprived at the time haha! Great product and easy to use :)

Wonderful!!

now with newer washing machines, they practically make the downy ball extinct... but it had a good run when it first hit...

I've had my Downy ball for years now and haven't had a single problem. It works great.

I love my downy ball. I didn't start using downy until last year when my oldest son was born but I love it. It is great and I have never had a problem with mine. I love the smell of my children's clothes when they have been washed with downy. Sometimes I just smell them as soon as I take them out of the dryer and it makes my heart smile.

Loved this but I have a washer now that doesn't release the liquid softeners till its time. Downy used to have another set of fabric softeners too, the one I liked was blue back in 2001 and it would make the entire house smell like clean laundry, I loved that stuff!!! The smell was amazing but haven seen it in a long time now :(

This is just a great product for someone like me who was always missing the rinse cycle. Thanks so so much for saving me time, and helping out with the water bill lol. Have already went through two of these. Will buy more if I need to.
