Product Reviews of Dryer Balls - The Original Dryer Balls
Product Review: dryer balls work
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a skeptic. But a greater skeptic than I recommended that I try these balls. They work. If you use them, your laundry comes out fine. If you do not, your laundry comes out stiff. What is a better proof than this? And, keep in mind that the owners of classic cars in storage use Bounce sheets to keep mice out of their vehicles in storage. What do mice know that we don't?Product Review: Tennis balls would work. . .
Summary: 3 Stars
I have often heard that using tennis balls in the dryer for a comforter will keep it from forming clumps in the stuffing. It will balance it, and fluff it up wonderfully.
My grandson was selling stuff for a school fund raiser;the dryer balls are one of the items I decided to try, based on the tennis ball idea (there weren't any tennis balls in the catalog!). The description said they were made of rubber--it is either very hard rubber, or plastic as some reviews have stated,with which I'm inclined to agree. (didn't say on the package.)
These are noisy, but they do seem to help clothing to dry faster, as they open up spaces throughout. I have not noticed any softening qualities distributed by these however, which was one of the things I bought them for. My husband wonders if usage will eventually shorten the life of fabrics by the beating they receive, because the balls are so hard.
Given the idea (again) I might just try some tennis balls. They'll wear out quickly, I imagine, but they probably cost less overall. I like the idea of the wool balls mentioned in another review--I suppose anything that keeps the laundry from clinging and clumping as it dries is going to work nicely. Just depends on what product one feels comfortable with, I guess.
Product Review: they work!

I bought a pair at my local flea market a month ago and have been using them since. I've noticed a dramatic decrease in wrinkles clothes coming out of my clothes dryer! These do work! Only downside might be the excess noise of the dryer balls bouncing around in the clothes dryer.Product Review: Not environmentally friendly, think before you buy

Consider these things before you buy this PVC product:
* Hydrochloric acid, cancer-causing dioxins, and other persistent pollutants are spewed into the air, water, and land when PVC is being manufactured, resulting in chronic and severe health problems such as cancer, neurological damage, endometriosis, birth defects, and liver and kidney damage.
* hard to recycle and not the kind of substance you want ina landfill where the toxins will slowly leach into the environment.
* made in China
Product Review: Awesome and Long Lasting
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought the dryer balls soon after they came out maybe over a year ago! They have continued to work like a charm. I can't tell any difference between these balls and dryer sheets. I don't have static problems. The clothes aren't scratchy. I don't know if it speeds drying time because I just empty the dryer when I hear the buzzer. I paid 9.99 for 2 balls awhile back and have used them, for at least a year or more! So, it has saved TONS of money on dryer sheets and now come to find out...dryer sheets are horrible for your health! I recommend these to all! If you wanna go even cheaper...use 3-6 tennis balls!
