I like to dry my washing on the line but at this time of the year it is very difficult as the weather is so poor so I have to use my tumble dryer, which I am not so keen on doing. I bought myself... more

    Advantages Advantages Innovative product, reduces drying time, non-toxic, eco-friendly approach to softening

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Doesn't seem to be as effective as fabric conditioners at reducing static

    Keen followers of consumer news will know that fabric conditioners have been having a rough ride in the press of late. I am just old enough to remember when “Comfort” was first introduced into my home. We all thought it was wonderful. Clothes that stayed soft to the touch, smelt nice, and no longer generated static – three good reasons for celebration. Over the years, we experimented with different brands as they became available, the main differentiation between brands being the colour of the bottle and the smell of the freshly laundered clothes. Then along came detergents with built-in ... more

    Advantages Advantages Less drying time, less creases, less lint.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Noisy, husband complains even more.

    My drying balls were a result of wanting to treat myself. I had some Tesco club card vouchers which is the perfect excuse for a reason to buy something for yourself that you don`t really need. Whilst perusing the store, some strange looking balls caught my eye. I was wondering whether they were a pair of kinky massage balls. On closer inspection, I discovered that they were tumble dryer balls! I hadn`t seen anything like the balls before so I was compelled to have a look. There were 2 balls, one in pale blue and one in lilac, covered in little nobbly bits. They were partially covered with ... more

    I love to find a bargain and recently bought a new pack of tumble dryer balls from my local car boot sale for just 50p.I have read several positive reviews about these little balls and was really keen to try them for myself as they make several interesting claims that they would not only save me money but would keep my clothes soft, reduce lint and creasing. What you get for your money. ************************* I see that these balls are on sale from Amazon for £2.98, still not expensive! The balls come in a see through plastic pack with all the information written on the outside. The pack ... more

    Advantages Advantages Easy to use and environmentally friendly

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Unimpressive results

    Lakeland Plastics has long been a favourite shop of mine as many a gadget has been bought there and has gone on to give great service over the years. Browsing round the Newcastle store recently, I was visiting the city with my son for the University Open Day, I noticed an unusual box on the shelf. I read the blurb on the back and suitably impressed I decided to pay the £9.99 and give the dryer balls a try. Packaging Instantly eyecatching the tall triangular shaped box has two cut outs containing one pink and one blue ball. The lilac background is attractive and the pink and white writing ... more

    Advantages Advantages helps creases

    Disadvantages Disadvantages costly and breaks!

    I do not often tumble dry, especially in the pleasant summer weather but I do use it alot in the winter. It is so hard to keep on top of the washing without it! I was given the drier balls by my mum who thought they sounded pretty good, which of course they do. They claim to help the machine take less time and therefore uses less electricity, ironing becomes easier, and there are no chemicals involved at all - ideal for anyone with asthma, eczema, psoriasis or chemical sensitivity. *Price and availability* These balls are often subjects of some good offers. My mum paid £10.00 for a set and got ... more
