I use it for my clothes, not for my quilting fabrics. I Iron everything before I wear it, and the Best Press makes ironing so much easier plus, with a husband who smokes, my clothes smell great!

I use regular Sta-Flo starch cut 50/50 for quilting fabric.

I still have not found a single reason to use it. I got a bottle as a gift , then found out the price.... Way to high for my use. I will stick with my Stay Flo concentrate ... sooo much cheaper and I get better results.

I find it a little too pricey for me.

I have a bottle right now, an impulse purchase. Sure it's got a nice scent but it is very pricey. I'll stick with my Faultless Heavy Duty Spray Starch. And if it flakes on dark fabrics, oh well, it all comes out in the wash!

I got a bottle and maybe I'm not using enough, but I don't notice much difference from not using and using it.

It is pricey but it gets extra points for *NOT* coming in an aerosol. My sister used that Faultless Maxx spray on a shirt and besides the fact that it broke my heart she used an aerosol, it smelled awful.
