Have any of you used it?

I've heard some people are allergic to it.

Marjpf 05-14-2010 02:13 PM

I've used it quite a bit. It really works.

littlehud 05-14-2010 02:23 PM

I love it. I have a DD that is sensitive to so many thing I use unscented everything and she can use it.

Olivia's Grammy 05-14-2010 02:45 PM

I use it all the time. It doesn't seem to bother my cats or anything else. I have a friend that uses so much things get wet.

redquilter 05-14-2010 02:58 PM

I use the unscented and think it's great.

amma 05-14-2010 02:59 PM

We bought a used dresser - and it smelled kind of musty - the sellers Febrezed it - and that was WAAAAY worse

We ended up taking that dresser outside = and washing - and washing - and washing that dresser to try to get those smells out.

We use it all the time. I have two cats and one bullies they other, so we use it were the one getting bullied widdles. We have used several of the scents, right now we are using the Extra Strength. We also use it in the washer.

I use it all the time. It took quite a bit to get the "smoke" smell out of a suitcase I bought at a garage sale. Actually about 1/2 a bottle of the "extra strength" and several days outside. But it works on the furniture. I usually give the mattresses a spritz when I change the sheets. I just use it on things that can't be washed or on curtains between washings.

I tried it once, a long time ago, don't remember what scent it was, but the smell turned my stomach. Maybe I'll try the unscented next time.

I had never used it until my DD got married. She bought these pretty shoes....but the glue STUNK! We tried everything else, baking soda, silicone beads, vanilla.... anyway the febreeze worked.

amandasgramma 05-15-2010 08:00 AM

I have asthma and am able to use it....LOVE it!

CAROLJ 05-15-2010 08:02 AM

Me too! Not sure if you have OUST in your stores - I find it much better.

ann clare 05-15-2010 12:28 PM

I love it. Use it all the time.

MissM 05-15-2010 01:48 PM

I love it. I even use the air freshner.

Pam 05-15-2010 04:06 PM

I like Frbreeze as an air freshener, but I regularly use Odoban on everything. I use it do disinfect the sinks, countertops and sponge before I do the dishes. A little in the wash does wonders for a stinky load of clothes.

What is OUST?

It's an odour eliminator which claims to eliminate and neutralise odours without just masking them. It's made by the Johnson Company - not sure if it's just a UK product. I really find this works.

craftybear 06-08-2010 08:49 PM

yes, I use it all the time

mom-6 06-08-2010 08:54 PM

my daughter loves it

Gramof6 06-08-2010 09:17 PM

I took my dogs to the doggy park and they have double coats. It was very hot and of course they jumped right into the lake. Can we spell SMELLY? OMG I about gagged all the way home! Go them all cleaned up, shampooed the carpet in the SUV & it still smells like stinky lake water & gawd awful dirty dogs. Which Febreeze do you think would work best? I'll try anything at this point. DH will crap little green nickles when he comes home and smells this. LOL Stinky stinky! Figure I have until the weekend to get it out. LOL

It does get rid of that doggie scent.
