They work but prints should always be turned around to not be ruined by the spikes

They do make a difference with fluffing up the towels and reduce drying time.

I only use my dryer for short periods, normally to soften towels as I live in a hard water area. These help the job along very quickly - five minutes in the dryer with these cubes and the towels then air dry easily without being scratchy.

Makes me feel less guilty when i'm using the tumble dryer for the umpteenth time! Has cut about 20 minutes off the drying time for a standard load. Well worth the money.

They work every bit as well as tumble dryer sheets; they're economical and there's nothing to throw away at the end of each cycle, as they're reusable.

Used for the last few weeks and they've halved my drying time. Would recommend them to anyone wanting to reduce the amount of electricity they use while drying.

Fantastic. Drying time has been reduced by at least a quarter. They are quieter than expected too. Excellent value for money considering the saving on energy!

Havent had them long enough to see how durable they are, but seem to be well rated by others - time will tell. Living in the Welsh hills, we tend to get more liquid sunshine so anything that helps reduce drying/ironing bills has to be worth it!

I use both cubes in my dryer, which is in use most of the week, they last for ages and I would recommend this product to anyone wishing to find an eco alternative to dryer sheets.

I use them with any tumble drying I do - I'm not sure if it reduces the time it takes to dry clothes but my clothes do seem softer if I've aired some clothes on the clothes line then run them quickly through the tumble dryer to finish off.

I use the tumble dryer cubes all the time, they cut down drying time and the use of dryer sheets. They save the environment and your finances! The new cubes are also a lot quieter than previous products.

I bought these cubes as a replacement for some drier balls which had cracked. During the autumn and winter I find using the drier unavoidable with the laundry demands of a young family, so anything I can do to cut down the drying time is a must. These cubes are definitely helping.

I have tried many washballs and end up exasperated. However these dryer balls are effective and reliably cut 10 minutes plus off drying time. I never used any other product like drying sheets and had stopped using fabric conditioner before I used them. They are noisy depending on what and how much you are drying but as the question answer says, not as annoying as some fastenings on clothes. I don't think you'd want, say, to be eating a meal next to a dryer running with these in, but we have ours in another room so that's not an issue and although we run our dryer overnight, it doesn't wake any anyone (human or canine)

Brought by my friend from UK and using this morning, found out clothes are much soften than using the normal softening sheets, less wrinkles and easy for iron. But no time cut for drying, for me it's not important.

Using these has significantly reduced our drying time. Our clothes would previously wrap themselves into a hot soggy ball, we would have to unwrap them regular intervals to get them to dry properly, but this is no longer a problem.

Really great product. With 2 children I have a lot of washing and this really does cut drying time and makes clothes (esp towels) really soft.

I have used the dryer balls with great success. My laundry and towels are definitely softer with no static. I have also noticed a definite improvement in drying time which, when you have a lot of loads to dry is going to save quite a lot of energy. All in all a fab product.

Viewing all Questions ordered by  

Redsam asked this question on 8th Feb 2009

Q: Hi. How does the product actually work? Nowhere does it explain the mechanism.

A: The yellow and green Dryerballs have different tensile strengths (one is harder than the other) and different shaped softening nodes. The two dryerballs have been designed so that they work in combination to lift and separate the laundry whilst tumble drying. The Dryerballs also retain heat and transfer it to the clothes as they tumble, thus aiding the drying process. There is no need to add a "softening" dryer sheet or use fabric softener in your wash. The dryerballs use the specially designed nodes to physically break down the stiffness created by water drying in fabric, thus softening your laundry without the introduction of toxic chemicals.

Emma asked this question on 19th Nov 2007

Q: Are the balls noisy as they tumble around the machine?

A: No - they are fairly soft in terms of their surface texture, and in use they tend to work their way into the heart of the load so are well muffled. They are certainly no where near as loud as the annoying metal zip pull on my favourite hoodie... John.

Anonymous asked this question on 22nd Oct 2008

Q: Is it best to place dryer balls in the centre of the washing on top?

A: Many people prefer to start with the dryer balls in the centre, but it shouldn't make too much difference as the spikes on the outside of the balls will enable them to work around the load lifting and separating the clothing. This allows heat and air to circulate more freely, meaning your drying time is reduced. The balls also eliminate the need for fabrics softeners as the balls' specially designed surface nodules physically breakdown the stiffness created by water drying in the fabric, naturally softening your laundry without the need to add chemical softeners or conditioners.

Joanne asked this question on 28th Jan 2008

Q: Does anybody else get a lot of static in the laundry when using these balls? If so is there a way around it?

A: According to the manufacturers one of the key benefits of using Dryer Balls is that they should actually reduce static, no one in the office has any experience of a static problem - but we'll put the question on our Facebook friends to see if any of them has any experience / advice. If you're already a member of Facebook you can go straight to the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/ethicalsuperstore">Ethical Superstore group.</a>

Zuraidah asked this question on 8th Jun 2008

Q: Can you use the balls in the washing machine to soften the clothes, instead of fabric softner?I line dry and not use tumble dryer.

A: I'm afraid there's nothing in the products documentation which covers such usage. John.
