Bounce vs Snuggle

5 years ago

For those of you who aren't anti dryer fabric softener, which of the following do you prefer and why? (Note: I put the default scents for both as a representative of the various scents each brand offers so if there is a specific one that you prefer please feel free to comment)

    We use Bounce. Normally Fresh Air or some sort, but we have Costco size Outdoor Fresh at the moment. We don't care for this scent too much, thus why we normally have Fresh Air, or whatever the name is.

    We also use Seventh Gen fragrance free, but it does not do a good job of static control, which is the reason we use a dryer sheet, so it sort of sits there on the shelf. I won't buy it again since it doesn't do it's intended job well. To be fair, we live in static-central here. Very dry conditions.

    I haven't tried Bounce or Downey unscented dryer sheets, but that might be our ticket after all. When our supply runs out, I'll pick that up.

    Going further back, we used to use Snuggle dryer sheets. I think the one you have pictured above. The reason we stopped using it was that it left a residue on laundry that didn't wash out well. Going even further back, we used the Kirkland dryer sheets and were pleased with them, but then they increased the level of perfume that made it so we couldn't use them anymore.

    @mdln, I LOVED those sheets, but they are no longer available or manufactured by P&G. If you can still find them in your area, you should stock up on multiple boxes.

    I personally, am a Bounce person myself. I LOVE the outdoor fresh scent and find it very nostalgic.


    I've also found myself quite fond of some store brand sheets, from CVS & Wal-Mart in the past. Lastly, I have a very small stash of these ---


    Method Fresh Air Dryer Sheets



    They don't actually soften, anywhere as good as the Bounce Sheets. You need 2 1/2 sheets to = One Bounce Sheet. But, they really do smell fantastic, and I like that the softener is made from vegetable oil instead of cationic softeners.

    We use Bounce. We buy it at Costco. We mainly use it for static not for scent. It works pretty well for static. The scent is just ok. I have not tried other brands.

    I use only for static control & buy whatever. Makes no difference; current box is from Aldi. Reuse them for 2-3 loads.

    Neither. Can't stand scented products. I use Bounce unscented for my sheets and towels (use dryer balls on clothes).

    None.

    Bounce for me. My mother in law uses those blue snuggle ones, and the smell of those made me so sick when I was pregnant. That was 19 years ago, but I still can't smell them without getting nauseated.

    My personal favorite is the Bounce Fresh Linen scent. To me that's one of the best smelling dryer sheets out there. My only issue with Bounce is that it doesn't hold its scent nearly as well as Snuggle products do.

    Due to this, I recently have become more of a Snuggle fan overall (although I don't like the default Blue Sparkle scent as shown above).

    I actually have found that the majority of scents from snuggle aren't as strong as some make it out to be, but I know each of us have different tolerance levels so that's completely understandable.

    That's the one we like MWJ. Fresh linen. I couldn't recall the exact name. :)

    Friendly reminder: Do NOT use fabric softener or dryer sheets when washing flame resistant or flame retardant material. Fabric softeners and dryer sheets contain flammable chemicals that coat the fabric either reducing or voiding it's flame resistant/retardant effectiveness.

    littlegreeny, it's always a pleasure seeing you on here. thank you for the comment!

  • 5 years ago

    Oh, Bounce all the way. I always end up going back to them. Outdoor Fresh is by far the best scent too! It is to die for. The old Spring and Renewal scent was good, but they changed it of course.

    I like that Bounce too Doreycrouse I with they made a liquid softener in the same scent
