Woolzies Dryer Balls Review & Giveaway

     I am sure that by now many of you have either heard of Woolzies dryer balls or have tried them. If not, I’m about to suggest why you should check them out!

    The two main reasons I like Woolzies are 1) they are 100% eco-friendly and 2) they don’t add any harsh, cancer causing chemicals, like dryer sheets. In fact, they are completely chemical free.  Still don’t see what the big deal is? Check out the list of other benefits Woolzies offers in the picture below.


     One other thing I LOVE about Woolzies is that they do not fall apart like the plastic dryer balls you can find in stores! They are also a LOT quieter too.

    I received a box containing 6 XL Woolzies dryer balls. It is recommended to use all 6 with each load of laundry you dry and these puppies are guaranteed to last for 1,000 loads! I usually wash around 4 loads of laundry per week, which means my Woolzies dryer balls will last me well over a year! Just think about how many times per year you would be buying fabric softener and dryer sheets. (I will admit, however, I’ve never used fabric softener to begin with.) I love stuff that lasts for a good deal of time!


    You may be wondering if these things cause a big commotion in the dryer while it’s running. Not really. You can hear them tossing around a little bit, but it’s not really much more noticeable than the normal noise your laundry makes flopping around.

Disregard all of the crap in my laundry room. It's kind of a "catch all." :D This video is to prove how quiet Woolzies are in the dryer.

    I will warn you about the “stow away” ball. I’m starting to think I received a box of cheeky dryer balls because one in particular seems to like hiding in sleeves. However, as you can imagine, it’s a heck of a lot easier finding a ball the size of your fist than a dryer sheet in a pile of clothes.


    The Woolzies dryer balls definitely help get your clothes dry faster. I have gotten in the habit of running mine an extra half of a cycle for pretty much everything because I always use the lowest setting. I’m also notorious for putting way too many things in the wash at a time. (Can’t imagine why it takes me so long to get things dry!) Everything but my hemp diaper inserts get dried quicker: clothes, towels, diapers shell, and pre-folds. (In all fairness, my hemp inserts ALWAYS take a lot longer to get dry because they hold so much!)
