Leno unstoppables

I have never used fabric conditioner, don't want my clothes to smell of anything. Haven't used soap powder for 10 - 11 years either. I use soap nuts. Environmentally friendly and much cheaper.

Fabric conditioner is hugely expensive ( it’s 90% water) plus all those huge plastic bottles are terrible for the environment - they either end up in the ground or the waterways. The manufacturers make a huge profit on this muck so no wonder they are trying to find new ways to sell it.

I have never used fabric conditioner. Is it for washing that's not dried outside?

I dry as much of my laundry outside as I can. Not only does it smell so lovely and fresh when it comes in, it doesn’t waste electricity and the sun is a natural antibacterial.

As I said upthread, I use Comfort pure in my wash as we live in an extremely hard water area. I don’t use it in towels. I use it with clothing to soften them, but it does not perfume them. It has no smell, it is unperfumed. I don’t buy perfumed conditioners.

Haven't used fabric conditioner for decades. Clothes just smell of the washing powder instead... Or, if dried outside they have that wonderful 'outside dried' smell which is better than any artificial fragrance.

I do confess to tumble drying towels because line drying doesn't leave them soft (unless they're dried in a howling gale )

Not a fan of fabric conditioners of any kind,sorry!

I use a little fabric conditioner as I think it makes my T-shirts softer when I dry them outside. I buy Tesco own brand and water it down to half strength. I also only use one tablet rather than the two suggested as my clothes are not really dirty, just need freshening most of the time - I don’t tend to roll around in the mud!!

Gave up fabric conditioner years ago. They smell horrible and I can't stop sneezing near them.

Thanks everyone for comments. Obviously something to be avoided.

I was given some of these to try. I think they are a marketing ploy to make you spend more money, they are expensive, a faff to use, didn't like the perfume, harmful to aquatic life ( and probably us!) so you can probably get by now they I do not recommend them at all. I have a bottle of Comfort Pure which lasts for ages as I only rarely use it on a couple of fine jumpers & cashmere cardigans.

I like to use Comfort Pure in my wash, all except towels, because it does stop absorbency in towels. However I live in a very hard water area and I don’t want my clothes to be stiff and hard, so I use Comfort Pure.
There are lots of flagrant and useless products around which I don’t use. The one that perfumes your carpet, is it Shake and Vac? Air fresheners, which are not air fresheners, they’re just perfumes. There’s one you spray on your clothes, again just a perfume. I have asthma and all these spays really set the asthma off. I don’t buy any of them.

Artificial “fragrances” are mainly manufactured from substances that I wouldn’t want wafting around my house, nor washing into my drains to contaminate water courses. I’m always surprised in supermarkets by whole aisles dedicated to air fresheners and the like.

Totally unnecessary. Dash of vinegar works fine. Why throw money down the drain.

Hmm ... I bet you wish you hadn't asked!

There are so many fragrance things to buy. Do we really need them all. Probably not.

I never use fabric conditioner. I add a spoonful of sofa crystals and a squirt of white vinegar. Clothes are soft with no artificial smell. Not worth buying unstoppables IMO.

So good that plenty of people are now not being taken in by the sales techniques for this expensive, dangerous and totally unneccessary item.

There is absolutely no need for any so-called fabric conditioner to be used, it is dangerous to wildlife, and prevents your towels, etc being properly absorbent.

Cut it out and save money.

I had to look up what you do with them. No, I won’t be using them. They’re another product that could possibly irritate skin. I stick to the same washing detergent and Comfort Pure so we don’t get irritated.

They are quite nice put into little home-made muslin bags and hung in the wardrobe!

The question the OP asked - are they worth the money?
The answer- no.

Well, I'm sure this has been very helpful.

No, we prefer our clothes to smell natural after a wash not artificial cheap perfume, would not use any fabric conditioners bad for your clothes & your health

My neighbour bought unstoppable, and said it wasn't worth the money.
She likes her washing to smell of conditioner.

I use white vinegar and a slug of floral disinfectant in my conditioner drawer.. i’ve not used fabric conditioner for years..

I use vinegar in place of fabric softener.... softens, no perfume OR vinegar smell!!

Much MUCH cheaper and kinder to the environment
