    1313Wicked - 17 days ago
    I no longer use Bounce of any kind because the smell is horrible & overwhelming. WHY did they change something that as perfectly great the way it was for years! I even tried other” fragrance free” dryer sheets and they smell horrible as well. I simply gave up and don’t use ANY fabric softener or dryer sheets. Liquid fabric softener is also going downhill fast. It used to smell fine and suddenly it is strong and unpleasant. What is going on?

    Like others are saying these smell very bad for some reason. I have used for a long time but had to return them recently and switch brands. There is a very strong chemical odor of some kind which is terrible considering they are supposed to be free and clear. It’s truly toxic smelling.

    StarryPluto - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
    I came home tonight to my laundry room and thought a pipe had burst in my wall because the entire room smells like mold and mildew. But I couldn't find anything. I had just bought a box of these a week ago and they were unopened and my cabinet. Something intuitive told me to open the box. I open the box and smelled and literally almost puked. Something is contaminated and wrong with these wipes and Bounce needs to know about it.

    We're sorry to hear this. Due to the many quality, health, and safety tests these sheets go through, this is a surprise to hear. Your well-being is very important to us, so we recommend to discontinue using these sheets if you haven't already. Our team would like to hear more. When you have a chance, please give us a call at (800) 526-8623.

    After using these for years, we have had to switch to another brand. Not sure what changes the company may have made, but the dryer sheets now smell like mildew. One box completely stunk up our entire laundry room.
    1 reply from Bounce team - 2 months ago
    Thanks for reaching out, Elle. We're very sorry to hear that you've had this experience. All of our products go through many quality checks to ensure that they reach you in perfect condition every time. So we're sorry that wasn't your experience this time. Sometimes, this can be caused by the product being exposed to extreme heat or cold. Always store the product in a cool (but not cold), dry place. Additionally, if the product is very old this has the potential to affect the scent. Our fragrance free products also have the ability to mirror surrounding products, and absorb the scents around them, causing various smells as well. Regardless, we would like to learn more, as well as make this right. When you have a chance, give us a call so we can help: (800) 888-4246

    The box smells awful. It sat in my linen closet for one night and the closet and hallway smelled awful the next day. I’ve been using this product for a few years and never experienced this before. I bought the last box from CVS, not sure why the product from Target is so bad. I will be returning it ASAP.

    Have been using these for years but the last box I bought smelled like mold/mildew. Was so strong we had to put it in the garage while we waited to return it. Thought it was a one-off but all the boxes in multiple stores smelled like this. Also, I’ve read your responses to the many other reviews stating the same problem. Please don’t respond with “We have strict quality controls…” You seem to have a manufacturing problem.
    1 reply from Customer Care team - 2 months ago
    Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We strive to ensure our Bounce arrives to you in the perfect condition by performing rigorous quality checks on our Bounce products. We want to assure you we have not changed our Bounce Free & Gentle, and would not expect it to have any scent. The presence of a scent can sometimes be a result of your Bounce Free & Gentle being stored near a product with a strong scent. As dryer sheets are porous in nature, in certain situations they can absorb the scent. We'd like the opportunity to learn more about your experience, and would appreciate you giving us a call at (800) 526-8623.

    Horrible! They are supposed to be fragrance-free and they have a disgusting smell. I didn’t even know how to describe it to Bounce customer service. I would much rather use the scented ones I’ve used for years. Call and tell them if you feel the same way. It’s the only way they might fix this issue.

    We're very sorry to hear this! This is not something we expect to hear, as we have many quality checks in place to ensure that our Dryer Sheets reach you in perfect condition every time. So we're sorry that wasn't your experience this time. We'd like to share that although fragrance or perfume is not added to the product, they will have a scent due to their natural smell. Since there's no masking fragrance added to cover this smell, you may notice it before using the product. It's important to note that the scent should not transfer to your fabrics after use. Additionally, sometimes when in prolonged contact with strongly scented products or scents, the "FREE" product can pick up fragrance from other nearby products or scents. Regardless, we would like to hear more about your experience, as well as make this right. When you have a chance, give us a call so we can help: (800) 526-8623

    We're sorry to hear that you're unhappy with the scent of your Bounce Fabric Softener sheets, Emily! Our products go through extensive quality testing to make sure they reach our consumers in perfect condition, so this is not the experience we want you to have, and we really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. Consumer satisfaction is important to us, and we'd like to learn more about this to be able to assist you further from here.

    There's nothing more important to us than the complete safety and satisfaction of our users, let alone a loyal fan, so we're sorry to hear about this. It could be possible that they were stored at some point next to something that was heavily scented. Since this product is porous, it can absorb fragrances. We'd love to help you with this and gather some details for our Quality Team. We can be reached at (800) 526-8623.

    Thank you for taking the time to review your Bounce Free & Gentle Fabric Softener Dryer Sheets. We're very sorry to learn they have a mildew scent to them. Although fragrance or perfume is not added to these sheets, they may have a natural scent. This would be the fragrance of the ingredients, since there's no masking fragrance added to cover this smell, you may notice it before using the product, but it should not transfer to your fabrics after use. It may help to know that sometimes, under unique circumstances such as prolonged contact with strongly scented products, the product can pick up fragrance from other nearby products. This may be the case with your current box of dryer sheets. We'd be happy to help you with this, and hope you'll call us any day of the week, from 9 AM to 6 PM, EST. Our number is 1 (800) 526-8623.
