Product Reviews of Dryer Balls
Product Review: VERY disappointing
Summary: 2 Stars
Having read so many complementary descriptions of the Dryer Balls, I couldn't wait to try them, especially for my towels which, according to reviews I read, would come out soft and fluffy. I was also eager to save on drying time, as energy costs are expected to skyrocket this winter.
I finally received my dryer balls last week, and couldn't wait to do the laundry. I was terribly disappointed. Not only did the balls not speed up drying time AT ALL, but my towels were not soft or fluffy, as various reviews of these products had led me to believe.
Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this product at all.
Product Review: Worked well until they fell apart
Summary: 2 Stars
These were recommended to me by my boyfriend's mother. I don't use dryer sheets anyway due to his allergies and the fact that I don't like adding chemicals needlessly. So, the softer sheets are just a plus for us. If I forget to get the clothes out of the dryer quickly, we just steam the wrinkles out with our Scunci Steamer (which I love) for a good, chemical-free way to approach laundry.
My towels and sheets are fluffier with these balls. I didn't notice a change in drying time. What I like is the fact that they are more effective at removing pet hair from fleece, which is a constant battle in my house with 2 dogs and 2 cats.
Unfortunately, one of the balls just split in half after about a week of multiple daily loads. I returned them to Bed Bath & Beyond (they're pretty good about returns/exchanges within 30 days of purchase with receipt). Based on my experience with the fluffy sheets, I was willing to give them another shot. I bought several packages (I was really hoping these would work due to the pet hair issue), but, alas, all of them fell apart - split completely in half after a 1-2 uses. These were a complete waste of money.
Product Review: Yellow dryer balls

They are fine for replacing dryer sheets, but I thought they were suppose to stop me from having to iron, and that is not the case.Product Review: You've Got to Try them to Believe it!
Summary: 5 Stars
I originally ordered these from a [...] because I was looking for natural/organic alternatives for household products.
These things are fabulous! They cut my dryer time by 25-50% and now I don't use dryer sheets or fabric softner on any of my natural fabrics. I had tried not using fabric softner on my kitchen towels before I got the dryer balls but found that they didn't dry very well and weren't very soft. But with the dryer balls everything is soft and dries great!
Now I just seperate my synthetic fabric clothes into their own load and dry them with just a 1/2 a dryer sheet to prevent static cling and none of my other loads (about 6 of them) require any softner at all.
I liked them so much I bought nine other sets and gave them out as Christmas presents. I plan to buy and give out more this year as well.
I've been using them for more than a year now and don't know why I didn't try them sooner.
You've got to try them to believe them!
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?
