Question 1

can you still smell the fragrance on the finished laundry? thank you.

Accepted Answer

Although many people may not realize it, these do have a fragrance. I'm highly sensitive to scent, so I switched from Shout to Carbona so I could get unscented.
I don't remember the scent coming through onto the clean laundry, but couldn't get past the sheets themselves being scented.

Question 2

So I can wash blacks with whites with these? Also colors with blacks?

Accepted Answer

I would wash dark colors with blacks, but I personally would be hesitant to wash whites with blacks if the black is still subject to bleeding and the whites are a fabric that will take up loose dye in the water.   I have washed new cotton polo shirts in navy, maroon and dark green with polo shirts that are cotton but have been washed often enough to no longer bleed their dark colors.  No problem.   Personally, I respect the rules of laundry concerning color bleeding and grouping colors.  New cottons in dark colors and even blended fabrics in dark colors will often bleed some dye.  This is where Color Catchers can give peace of mind.  Fabrics, colors and water temperature all factor in whether  I trust my Color Catchers.  I have not been disappointed in their ability to absorb dye bleeding when I know it is going to occur (like with a new cotton dark shirt or jeans).  Blacks with whites.....my years of laundry experiences says no, not even with this product.

Question 3

Does this help after color bleed from a previous wash? My white shirt is dingy bc it has black sleeves

Accepted Answer

No, it won't take out the black dye that's already bled into the white shirt but it will prevent it from getting worse.

Question 4

Are these fragrance-free? I see 2 yes & 2 no; I have bad allergies!

Accepted Answer

I have been using this product for years and never noticed a fragrance until now.  Since t he pandemic started, I wasn't able to find them at the grocery store or at Walmart, so I just ordered two boxes from Amazon and the fragrance is awful!  I still  had one left in my old box, and even tho fragrance is listed, I couldn't smell it.  These new ones are over powering.  But, the scent does go away in the wash.  I used 2 of the sheets in a load of clothes and it was not present on the clothes at the end of the cycle, so I'll still use them, but am storing the box where the odor will not be noticeable.  I intend to call the customer service number on the box and lodge a complaint.  Fragrance doesn't make the sheet work any better so is NOT needed.
