Popping a pack of laundry dryer balls into a wash offers an effective solution to soften fabrics, reduce creases and drying time, and saves on the cost of energy, chemical softeners or dry sheets.

The dryer ball is designed to separate and lift the clothes throughout the drying cycle, this ensures air circulates that much easier, and the result of that is a much quicker drying time.

Using a laundry accessory of this nature is a simple case of popping in 3 or 4 dryer balls into a dryer with a full-load of clothes or sheets, and as soon as the machine completes its cycle, the dryerballs soften and eliminate a lot of the creases in the fabrics, with no call for chemicals.

Laundry balls, with large-sized diameter and nodules are effective at making more contact with a wash-load, and that ensures fabrics feel that much softer when taken out of the machine.

Benefits often seen with these laundry accessories include – fabrics soften naturally, so no requirement to use chemical fabric softeners, a wash dries up to 25% quicker, clothes dry with less static cling, creases and wrinkles, so less ironing required, a environmentally-friendly and toxic free option, and a noticeable saving seen on the cost of shopping and energy bills.

OnTel, GreenWallBall, Nellie's, and Dryer Max all offer a selection of softening balls, with a resilient construction to soften, and freshen clothes, while also able to withstand repeated use.

Dryerballs often come without a scent as standard – although there is an option to inject a citrus or lavender fragrance with a scent stick, which is released slowly throughout a drying cycle.

In addition to the choice of dryer ball, other washer-dryer accessories include soap nuts for an eco-friendly alternative to a washing detergent, or add in a washer ball for a more effective scrubbing action throughout a wash. In addition, anti-static dryer balls are perfect for cling and static-free clothing – a great option to limit the use of messy or inconvenient dryer sheets.

On the whole, a pack of dryerballs popped into a washer/dryer ensures that towels, sheets, and clothes come out that much softer and fresher to result in a favored laundry accessory.
