I tried this product since everyone was raving about it. It's very nice but I don't know if it is any different than Magic Spray Sizing. Just an added scent and I think the spray bottle makes it easier to use on small pieces. But it is very pricey. What does everyone else think?

I was disappointed in it and preferred my Magic Spray sizing. Yes, it smells nice, but I didn't find that it did as good a job of starching the fabric as the regular household products.

Same as you do! I tried it and liked it but it is expensive. I originally paid $2780 for two bottles (someone accidentally moved the decimal point and I almost had a stroke!!)

I love it. I get NO flakes when I use it. Sizing, not so much. I but the big bottles online from Hancock's and refill my smaller spray bottle.

It's ok. I purchased it at first, but then I heard about Faultless Maxx. You can pick it up at Walmart, it's about 1.89 i believe.

I like this just as well if not better. Not that Mary Ellen's is a bad product I just prefer to save a little money.

If you haven't tried it, you might consider it. I was really pleased with it and use it all the time now. You get a lot more for the money. And with the economy the way it is, saving some dough is always a plus! :)

I love it. I add water to it to make it last longer - 1/2 to 1/2 and it doesn't seem to make a difference.

You can get a big refill bottle, too.
