Given that the New Year for 2003 began with the death of an old appliance--our washer--Himself and I decided that the time was right for a first during our 34 years of marriage: We would purchase a new washer AND a new dryer to meet our laundry needs. We would purchase them at the same time, and they would MATCH in all reasonable respects. It was, we agreed, a great luxury. But it was a luxury we had earned and could finally afford.

Making the Choice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The choice of a dryer, of course, was determined in large part by the choice of a washer. Himself, a practiced navigator of the World Wide Web, had done the research--with the end result being the purchase of a Maytag Neptune Washer, model MAH5500B.

Advantages: Cut down on drying time Disadvantages: None
the need to use a softener during washing.
Dryer Balls tumble around with your clothing as it is drying, they lift and separate the clothes as they dry thus reduce the static build up and the little nodules on the balls massage the fibres of your clothing making them softer and fluffier.
My Findings
When I first opened the Dyer Balls and took them from the packet I was really quite surprised at how hard and solid they felt, I had imagined them to be soft, this made me very nervous at the thought of putting them in the dryer with my washing, I thought I might be opening up the dryer to find my washing all ripped up!

Advantages: Less drying time, less creases, less lint. 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 tumbledryer 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 cardboard packaging. I needed to find out more, I really wanted to feel the entire ball in my hand. I was puzzled with regards to their use in drying clothes so I read the cardboard packaging.
Claims.
