Why Dryer Balls??
Number One: (and the reason I first got Totally Toddler Dryer Balls) To keep the chemicals OFF of your children's clothing from dryer sheets, then I found out Totally Toddler & other plastic dryer balls were made of PVC which then leached onto the clothing....UGH! My search for an alternative led me to these wool dryer balls from a lovely Vermont farm!!! (If you must have a scent there are sellers who sell scented & Buddah Bunz also sends instructions how to rescent her dryer balls, plus hers are really cute!)
Number TWO: and a result I did NOT expect. Reduced drying time. With six dryer balls in the dryer I reduce the time it takes to dry a load of T-bone's work jeans and shirts from 80-90 minutes to just 60! That is a huge time and energy savings as I typically do TWO loads of his work clothing per week.
So there is a Happy Mother's Day to you! Chemical free laundry tool & energy savings to boot!

They really work?? Awesome!
I've never tried those.
How often do you have to replace them?
Oh I should have put that in the review...
The two sellers I asked have both been using the same set for three years and they still work.
They get "pilly" but it does not change their effectivness.
These look amazing! I love new products, especially 'green' stuff :)
Yup, green balls are much better than the blue kind.
Oooooh I wonder if they will reduce the drying time for cloth diapers!?!?! I am going to have to get some. Thanks for the tip adn Happy Mothers Day!
They reduce the drying time on EVERYTHING - I just used the work clothing as an example because it is my load that takes the LONGEST to dry.
My light loads now take about 30 vs. 45-50 minutes.
I did not know these existed. Thanks for the tip!
I use dryer balls too...love them. Mine are from Norwex, which is a company that sells "natural" products, but my dryer balls are made of a plasticy material. I should double check to make sure they aren't pvc!
I had never heard of these. What a great idea.
I have been throwing my wool balls in the wash and dry of my cloth diaper routine for a couple of days and it REALLY helps get the front loader to agitate better and get stuff cleaner :)and now I just need to get some more.... there are lots of great sellers of wool dryer balls on etsy~ get multi packs for the best deals!
