I love the smell but the only problem is it doesnt last on my daughters clothes.

I LOVE this detergent. While it is a bit on the pricier side I think it's worth the money. I used this from day one with my preemie who is now 2 1/2. She has very sensitive skin to this day but this detergent doesn't break her out all. Not only is it gentle but it tackles all the tough stains that come with a baby and toddler from food to stains you can't identify from source of.

This detergent is awesome. It smells so good and gets clothes so clean! It was recommended by the nursery when I had my first child because it is so gentle and safe. It also gets out some SERIOUS stains. Any parent knows the messes babies make and the bodily fluids that get all over everything at some point and this makes it all seem like it never happened. I use it for my clothing too because it is so gentle and I tend to have sensitive skin when it comes to detergents. I would highly recommend this. Coupons are generally available as well.

I have been using Dreft laundry detergent for several years now. I discovered Dreft when I had my first child four years ago. I was looking for a detergent that would be gentle and effective on my baby's clothes. After doing some research and getting advice from my best friend, I decided to make a purchase. Four years later, I'm still using Dreft. I recently had another baby, and I use Dreft on her clothes as well. As a parent, I want what's best for my children. Dreft is a wonderful product that I feel confident using. Since my children have sensitive skin, I can trust Dreft with my laundry needs. I am thankful for my best friend who helped steer me on the right direction.

I am currently pregnant with my 3rd child, who will be here any day now. With my first, I strictly used Dreft. I loved how it got her clothes clean and they always smells fantastic after being washed. It also worked great for getting out stains. With my second, I again used Dreft, however, that didn't last long because she had extremely sensitive skin and would break out from the Dreft. I switched to a different detergent that didn't leave her skin all broke out. Due to my my second daughters reaction and the price of Dreft, I decided not to get it again. I then won some so I am using it,a s long as the baby's skin doesn't break out. I recently got the clothes out of the garage just to discover that water leaked in to one of the bags and they smelled bad. I washed them twice with Dreft, and they smelled wonderful! Dreft works fantastic at cleaning clothes., I just wish it was a bit gentler on soft baby skin. I recommend it for those who don't have babies who react to scented detergents.

We only use dreft laundry detergent for our baby girl's clothes, hats and blankets and such. It is lightly scented and gentle on our baby girl's sensitive skin. I love when I find a coupon on top of a sale to make it even cheaper. They are not cheap to buy. We wash our baby's clothes separately. I think I will use this laundry detergent til she is almost a teen. Plus she has sensitive skin like her daddy and I so I think it is safer to keep it that way. I am still debating when she turns in her teens age will I change it then. She is three years old so I have time to decide from that point. Dreft cleans very well and works great. I have not had any issues. I would recommend to those parents who are looking for reliable and gentle and lightly scented laundry detergent. We always buy the biggest size they have in stores. They carry them at target, buy buy baby, baby r us. The safeway I go to used to carry them, but i noticed when i looked for it last week they do not carry them anymore. Performance Works amazingly. I really have not had any issues. Scent Lightly scented and smells good.

My son got his Dad's sensitive skin, unfortunately. On the bright side, I was recommended that I try Dreft. Now, I will never go back to any other laundry detergent after using this. My son has never had any kind of allergies to this, and that makes it an A+ in my book. I have never had any sensitive skin issues, but I would imagine that all those nasty, red, itchy bumps wouldn't be too pleasant to deal with when you have an allergic reaction to the soap you used on your clothes. Performance There has been times when my son has spilled things on his clothes, and I just KNEW those stains wouldn't ever come out, and I was pleasantly surprised when most of the time, they did. There's only been one or two instances that stains didn't come out, but I'm not going to blame the detergent for that. There are just times that no matter what detergent you use, some stains just weren't meant to come out. And having a toddler, I'm sure that will happen many, many more times before it's all said and done!

I received my first bottle of Dreft Laundry Detergent many years ago as a part of a baby shower gift. I used it diligently with my first born, and each child thereafter. It is incredibly mild and gentle to use. I've not had one baby develop skin irritation when their clothes were washed with this soap. I have no clue how long Dreft has been making soap, but based on the age of my oldest child, it's been awhile, AND it wouldn't be around today, if it were a poor product.---With that being said, I've provided bottles of Dreft as part of shower gifts that I give. It's a great tradition to pass on. Performance With Dreft being such a mild laundry detergent, I wouldn't encourage anyone to use it for anything but baby clothes. It doesn't clean up things like grass stains, or serious food stains that well. When it comes to formula, forget it! But I associate Dreft most often with my children when they were small infants, and when it comes to keeping baby clothes tidy, it does the job well. Scent There isn't much of a scent to Dreft detergent, but then again, who really wants a stinky detergent to overpower the sweet smell of babies? What little aroma there is is delicate enough to not bother baby's nose, as well.

I had a friend who was coming to stay with me and she has a small child (under 2). The child has very sensitive skin and the mother has labored over finding a laundry detergent that will not aggravate the child's various skin issues. When she came to stay, she indicated that she would only use Dreft, as this has proven to be the best detergent for her child since it was a baby. So I went out and purchased Dreft for her use while staying with me. On several days I wanted to surprise her with a "Chore free day" so I decided to do her laundry for her. I had never used Dreft before so I didn't really know what to expect. In using the Dreft, I immediately noted several things. Firstly, the clothes were cleaned well, despite the numerous stains that little ones tend to accumulate on their clothes. Secondly, the clothes came out reasonably soft, which is important since my friend will not permit the use of any dryer sheets or preparations. Thirdly, it worked well in both warm and hot. I did not use the cold setting, so I can't speak to that temperature. So, as a novice user, I can definitely attest to the fact that my initial experience was a good one.

I love Dreft laundry detergent because it is hypoallergenic. It makes me feel much better about washing my newborns clothes because there are no harsh soaps and chemicals that might harm or irritate the baby's skin. It is also my favorite for the babies clothes because it leaves the clothes smelling very good. This detergent also gives the clothes a very soft feel after they are done being washed. You can use just a small amount since babies clothes are very small and one load is usually smaller than a regular load of adult clothing. It is a little on the expensive side, but if you factor in that you will use much less, one bottle will last a long time. This is also taking into account that you wash baby clothes much more often than adult or older children's clothing! I definitely recommend Dreft even for adults if you just want a great laundry soap that will not irritate your skin. Performance Always gets clothes very clean and smelling great.
