Hi,

 

Does anyone have these? Do you think they make your room smell good? Some said they could hardly smell any scent.  Thank you

My experience was initially, it was a very strong fragrance.  After a month or so, I could hardly detect the scent.

Can hardly smell them.  Complete waste of money.

Works well in small spaces like the bathrooms. You need to flip the reeds weekly to have it dispense the scent. Some scents are better than others. I like the fall spice, it lasted the 3 months of the season. I don't want there to be a strong scent that can be smelled outside the room

Using scents ( plug-in, spray, diffuser,  candle, etc. ) in a home or vehicle releases chemicals into the air that is then breathed into the lungs.

 

One of the dangerous group of chemicals is phthalates which is a carcinogen.  Google has more recent articles on this topic, including perfumes, which are eye opening.

Unfortunately I never had luck with them.

There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it.
For example, I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt.

I bought them years ago, found that the scents were too strong at first and then (as notedby Coastalcarolina) they faded quickly. I returned them.

Just remember that these things, as well as the plug in type of fragrance, is not good for your pets. Keep them in a different room. I used a plug -in and my poor cat got so sick from the fragrance----and I mean really sick ---until we figured out it was the wall fragrance. took may vet visits and tons of $$ to finally figure it out.

Sorry, I disagree

 

I have it in my guest bathroom and it is pretty small.

 

Absolutely NO scent.  Not at the beginning even.  I rotate the reeds all the time and nothing!

 

I would never buy these again.

I have not tried Homeworx reeds, but I have tried others, and to me they are a waster of money-No More for me.. They give off very little scent, and you have to remeber to flip the reeds every coupleof days and even then the scent is so minimal....

 

I won't bother with Reed Diffusers any more. I like melting -no soot, no smoke, and a nice scent. 

 

I do still burn candles too, but mostly in the winter months....
