Unfortunately, the dryer balls work by breaking the fibers of your clothes. The added 'softness' comes from the broken ends. So while it may be 'environmentally friendly' in that no chemicals are used, your clothes will degrade faster and need to be replaced sooner… thereby ending up in the landfill sooner.

I would love to try these laundry balls. I am a stay at home mom and we are always trying to save money and this would be great. Also both I and my children have very sensitive skin so I have to buy the more expensive detergent that is dye and perfume free. We also can not use fabric softener at all because of our skin. This would be a great alternative.

Thank You for the contest and my household of 7 would appreciate it and my domestic goddess who does laudry daily would love it also. Also, our 11 year old son who does his own laudry would like it also

At the moment I have 9 people living in my house, so I do a lot of laundry! These would help considerably in cutting down my laundry bill.

I would like to try this product because it does not add any harmful chemicals to the water going down the drain! This is especially critical for us in So. Cal. where we will pretty soon be forced to use “grey” water for watering lawns and gardens!

money is tight, tempers are short,
Ive been asked by hydro to cut my bill,
they have put me on the smart meter,
doing laundry now not whenever I want,
the heavy pails of laundry soap, would be no more,
the fact of those 3 little balls,
would help me with the laundry chore,
we all want to win this incredible prize,
but I will use it, really I would, no more laundry soap or dryer sheets, using 3 balls more.

Oooh, Can I please be the winner? With three kids and two dogs it seems as if we’re constantly doing laundry. Just the idea of not having to constantly worry about detergent or letting the kids help by tossing in the laundry balls is such an exciting prospect! That and I don’t use dryer sheets so those dryer balls will be perfect for our summertime “natural” line drying then fluffing in the dryer sessions 😀
Thanks for the post and I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed 😀
