Wool Dryer Balls 6-Pack, Reusable, Saves Drying Time Natural Fabric Softener Great Gift Ideas, Grey

Purchased a set for myself and as a gift. For a handful of years now, I have only used typical dryer sheets very rarely, so I just became accustomed to static cling and lack of extra scented clothing. Though, I purchased these because I wanted something both more economical and better for the environment, so I could swear off dryer sheets entirely, as well as something that would potentially help lower the time it took for laundry to dry in the dryer, thus, using less electricity.I'm very pleased to report that on most loads of laundry, using these have cut down drying times by roughly 25% in my extra large loads. (Or 20 minutes, since it usually takes 80 minutes for my large loads to fully dry). The only exception for me seems to be jeans, which are so thick that even if everything else is dry, they're still a bit damp, so I recommend drying them separately (with other jeans only) or hang drying, if that's an issue. Or I just pull everything else out, and give them a few minutes by themselves or hang dry after the fact.They also prevent static quite well! The only exception has been certain very soft materials that tend to always be static-y when dried in the dryer, but even regular dryer sheets didn't prevent that in such materials, so it's not an issue at all. Those that have stated that there was still static in their reviews should take note of the directions on the bag. It specifically states that over drying with the dryer balls may cause static! So make sure to cut your drying times down, and just add a few more minutes, if needed, until you figure out the timing for your specific dryer and laundry loads.The only minor complaint I do have is that there are a few grammatical errors in the instructions on the bag, such as "throw," being "trow," which seems not as professional as it could be, but, let's be honest, if you can still understand it, it's not an issue, either.Altogether, they are definitely a product I recommend and will likely end up purchasing a few more to give as gifts, as well.

These dryer balls are wonderful. Clothes come out static free. And there is nothing to throw away if you use the dryer sheets. Besides the sheets aren't good for the dryer. Did not know that before. They are worth a try.

I bought a 6-ball set and use 5 or 6 for every load that goes into the dryer. The first 2 or 3 loads were a little underwhelming, since I continued to not quite a bit of static cling. Same thing as my sheets were giving me. However, after about the third load (I wash for one person), I began to notice much less static cling, and now, several weeks later, cling is minimal. I don't add any scent to the balls, and I haven't notice any, which is a plus in my book. I think my clothes come out mostly wrinkle-free, but I'm also pretty prompt about getting the stuff out of the machine.Bottom line, these work better than my dryer sheets, don't leave any gunk on the screen, speed up the drying process a bit and are reusable. I'm sold.

First off these work great I tried them with myCal king comforter it came out soft and took half the time to dry also we have 2 pugs and they shed a bit they took most of the hair off not all, most. Also I've had a chef jacket I couldn't get the wrinkles out I tried everything nothing worked until I tried the wool balls. So basically this product is awesome

I'm not really sure if wool balls work any better a dryer sheet, but they save me money long terms. The option to add your own scent is nice. Also, I can hear when the dryer stops running no matter where I am in the house because the balls stop rolling around so that's an added bonus. It's not much louder than regular dryer sheet laundry. What can I say... its a dryer ball. I bought them to support a small business like I would hope they would do for me if they needed my products.

These are AMAZING! I bought these because a friend had told me that they worked great for dog hair and they were organic. I have a dog that sheds a ton so I was very happy when I found that the wool dryer balls took most of the hair off of the clothes. I am also a user of organic essential oils, so I learned that you can sent your clothes by putting a drop or two of essential oils onto the ball and it will give our clothes the smell of your choice. They work amazingly and you can use them over and over again. Having it in packs of two is very useful barbecue it works much better in pairs. When I bought a pack of two I did not have to replace it for over three months, then I bought the pack of six which should last me a while.*if my review is helpful, please let Amazon know by hitting the YES helpful button :)

My sister had some similar to these she had bought through a party plan type organization. I used them while visiting her and decided I just had to have some. I found them for a much better price on Amazon and they arrived before scheduled! Immediately upon receiving them I put them to use on a load of sheets I was getting ready to dry. The sheets came out unwrinkled, dried more quickly than normal and smelled so good! Even my husband commented how they smelled like sheets that had dried in the fresh air on a clothes line like when we were children! The next load I used them on was towels. I did not use fabric softener in the wash, just threw the towels in the dryer with 3 balls. They are soft and fluffy. Very pleased with this purchase.

my wife doesn't like the perfume odor of any dryer sheets that we have tried. We have tried a couple of different things to use as a substitution to keep our fruit clothes static-free and wrinkle free. nothing has worked fantastically including these dryer balls but these dryer balls do help a lot in reducing static. There is significantly less static than if you were to use nothing at all. And significantly less static then some other things that we have used including balls with little ribbons all over them and other things. these balls also are absorbent so we put a drop or two or so essential oils in the dryer ball and that is a much more pleasing odor to my wife.
