Woolzies Dryer Balls Review & Giveaway!


I'm fairly new to wool dryer balls. I wasn't sure what all the hype was about over them and I was fine with using my dryer sheets. I knew they left some residue in the dryer and on my clothes but it wasn't anything noticable so I wasn't too worried. So when I was given the opportunity to try Woolzies Dryer Balls I was excited because I wanted to see what all the hype was really about! Let's just say I'll never go back to dryer sheets again!! 

Woolzies is a family owned business in Southern New York. The dryer balls are handmade of pure wool. Each box of Woolzies contains 6 all natural wool dryer balls. Wool dryer balls save time and money by cutting down on drying time and they act as a natural fabric softener as well! 

I definitely see what all the hype is about now that I've actually tried these wool dryer balls! They really do shorten drying time! Especially with my big loads like towels and cloth diapers! Yep, that's right! They are cloth diaper friendly! So now I don't have to worry about buildup from the dryer sheets I used on my regular clothes getting on my cloth diapers!  Another thing I like about my Woolzies dryer balls is that they make my clothes feel super soft and fluffy! Every other time I have not used a dryer sheet when I dried my clothes they came out crunchy feeling. But not with Woolzies dryer balls! 

I will never go back to dryer sheets again! Woolzies dryer balls make it so easy to save money, save time, and save the environment!

We started using wool dryer balls when we started cloth diapering 10 mos ago. They're showing lots of wear though, so it's about time to replace them. I like how they help dry laundry faster, but we have horrible static sometimes.

I have just two and need more :) I do love that I don't have to use fabric softener on my husband's clothes, though!

Beth R said...

I just have two and would love more to see if it will save me on drying time

Jenny said...

I have never tried them, but I'd really like to. Just from prepping my cloth diapers, some of them just didn't seem to dry effectively or quickly enough. I also think the natural fabric softener effect of wool dryer balls would be awesome when washing baby clothes. I was a big fabric softener user, but obviously don't use it anymore - and even though I love my natural detergents, the baby's clothes still come out feeling scratchy to me.

I've never used dryer balls before! My friend used a plastic one in college, and I almost bought one but it was too expensive for me back then.

Wool definitely seems like the better option now though. :)

Ada Mangoes said...

I've never tried wool dryer balls before. I've thought about getting some plastic or rubber ones, but they all contained pvc so that was s no-go. I've also learned recently that the plastic/rubber ones can melt and leave stains on your clothing in the dryer!

Tina Bob said...

I have tried them for the apst month and they cut my dryer time by 30% and sometimes by 50% which is awesome and my clothes are very softer

I started using dryer balls when I developed allergies to all fabric softeners. Mine are falling apart now. :( I love using them. They reduce drying time, no allergy reaction and clothes are soft!

Sara Pearsall said...

We started using wool dryer balls about a month ago. I love the difference they have made in our laundry routine! Our clothes come out of the dryer so much softer and the dry time has been cut significantly.
