Not the same
Would Not RecommendI really miss the original bar, it says it's the same but it is not, the smell and texture are totally different. 😭 Bring back the original PLEASE

Smells horrible and isn't the same
Would Not RecommendJust opened my new bar to find a completely different color, smell, and texture. The new bar smells so strongly of the worst orange dial hand soap that I cant even imagine how it will mix with my laundry detergent. The texture when grating it up to use as a booster is so different too, the old bar turned more into a powder and was perfect for incorporating into laundry detergent. Please go back to what it was!

Bring back liquid starch, please
Would RecommendI like to use spray starch when I iron my clothes, especially linen and cotton. Also for sewing garments, crafts, and patchwork quilts. This liquid is nice because I can decide what strength to put in my spray bottle. My intention was to use it in the rinse cycle for select laundry items. Why was this discontinued just when people are rediscovering the merits of ironing and using starch?

Bring it back!
The one star is for discontinuing this amazing product. Has the team looked at social media to see how disappointed people are at losing this great product. Please bring this back. A year later, people in the quilting groups on facebook are still begging for alternatives. The demand has not diminished. The posts always get the most comments.

PLEASE This Back!
Would RecommendPLEASE BRING THIS BACK!! There is nothing else like it on the market! And it is such a great multi-use product for DIY’ers. If demand is low, I would recommend repackaging to a more cute/retro vibe. Lean marketing away from laundry, and towards projects and its multiple uses! If you want some examples or help with this, I would be happy to help! I am a project management consultant and would be happy to help, if it means bringing this product back! Feel free to reach out to me, if you have...

Would RecommendPlease bring back stayflo starch! It is flawless for starching my husband’s shirts. I starch and iron shirts weekly as well as the occasional craft project. Less messy than spray starch and certainly cheaper than the dry cleaner.

Cleaning Artists' brushes
Would RecommendI am an artist. I use acrylic, oils, and watercolor. My brushes are in beautiful shape, there isn't any paint on my studio floor or on my clothes and my white slop sink, that is 22 years old, in my studio, is snow white. All is because I use Fels-Naptha soap to clean all of these.items. I've turned other artists onto this miracle cleaner. Try it and you will love it. Also took high flow acrylic off my drafting table. I was in tears when I lifted the paper and the table was stained. Fels too...

BRING IT BACK!!!!
BRING IT BACK!!!! My mother uses this for all of her croquet work. This product was amazing for that. She is 95 years old and still croqueting daily. She only uses this starch for her croquet work but now we will have to find another option. She has croqueted over 60 Lords Prayers approximately 30"+ by 40"+, along with many Hail Marys and countless, I mean COUNTLESS family names, other sayings, etc. All of us treasure these items and we spend a fortune on framing to display and preserve th...
