Wool Dryer Balls - Smart Sheep 8-Pack - XL Premium Natural Fabric Softener Award-Winning - Wool Balls Replaces Dryer Sheets - Wool Balls for Dryer - Laundry Balls for Dryer - Reusable Dryer Balls

These things are great! I may have imagined this, but they seemed to become more effective after the first several loads, so there may be a breaking in period. There may also be a period of adjustment for those of us who associate perfume-y smells with clean laundry, but I and everyone I have introduced them to have come to prefer our "sheeps' balls" to chemical laden fabric softeners. Dryer loads are dry more quickly, and items are far less wrinkly than without the balls. Having ordered the set of eight, I see no reason to calculate the number used based on load - in this case, I think more is probably better. They do not leave lint on my dark clothes, and though they are not a substitute for an iron, they will prevent your jeans from drying into accordian-like tangled folds. For those complaining about static, I don't recall any claims to eliminate it, and have indeed noticed a bit more when clothes are taken from the dryer now that the colder weather has settled in, but I'd rather shake that out as I fold than expose myself and others to the cumulative effect of unnecessary chemicals (try white vinegar in the wash & drying naturals and synthetics separately to cut down on static). I put a few drops of lavender essential oil on a couple of balls for each load, which leaves a nice hint of scent, although when standing outside the vent, the effect seems more pronounced in the yard - hope the squirrels enjoy it too! (Of course one should not use essential oils indiscriminately, especially undiluted, for children, and around people with particular sensitivities.) I even badgered a tough-guy friend who is helping to care for his elderly mother to try some at her house, and not only has he become quite the able laundry-doer, but he has impressed his picky, sticky-note leaving sisters with his find. This is a great product that everyone who uses a dryer should include in their laundry kit.

Love this product! Have even purchased additional sets to give to friends. They really do eliminate wrinkles in clothing items in your dryer. They really do make the fabrics soft, without liquid softener. And they do reduce the drying time of clothing in the dryer, by allowing more circulation of air. Even my dog LOVES these balls. It got so that my dog follows me to the dryer EVERY time in order to snatch a ball that may fall onto the floor when I remove dry clothing from the dryer. Too funny! I don't know why I never heard about these before . They are a grand invention and who knew that these wool balls could accomplish so much!

Good product. If it falls on the floor, I throw it in the washer and back into the dryer. They’ve held up well and worth the money.

Fast shipping. These wool dryer balls made my clothes really soft. Used with essential oils. I would definitely recommend these.

These aren't particularly large - I got some jumbo ones from another company and they are like baseballs. These work fine but it takes twice as many to not even do the same as three of the jumbo ones. I'm saving the jumbo ones for the sheets, towels and t-shirts and will use these on the other things but they don't work as well on wrinkles but they do beat dryer sheets (have only used them as sachets for linen for years after I heard they make the lint trap in dryers not work right and your house could burn down). These are great - haven't noticed the fact I stopped using fabric softener (just Nellie's soda to soften the water) in the wash either. They do decrease dryer time! Not by half but by about 75%. They stand up so far - I thought they'd start getting 'tired' after a few loads but so far they look new! So these are nice quality and smell nice after a load of Nellie's washing goes through. I tried them with soap nuts detergent and they didn't smell as nice afterwards. I'm going to buy bigger ones when they wear out but as far as I can tell from my three purchases of wool dryer balls, these are the second biggest ones I've seen. Bigger is better!

These lambs wool dryer balls really do help with static electricity instead of using fabric softener…a cheaper alternative. I also think they keep clothes separated so they dry quicker and more thoroughly. I already had three but needed more for larger loads and am so glad I got these. Would recommend.

What a difference these balls make in your laundry. Makes it dry faster and towels dry fluffier! Great value for your money.

Quality product. Works well with all types of garments and linens. Like that these are environmentally-friendly and from a woman-owned and women-supportive small business.

Excellent product. Leaves my towels soft and minus the guilt of the huge environmental impact of dryer sheets. I have bought some for my friends and family too.

I still need my fabric softener to get rid of static...but the clothing seems tiny bit softer.

Por las opiniones esperaba más, le estoy poniendo 2 bolas a una carga completa y aún así, no suavisa como esperaba. Ahora estoy volviendo a utilizar las toallas suavizantes que ya no quería utilizar.

Just add to tumble dryer, they capture all the lint etc.

A brilliant product
