I LOVE these eco-friendly laundry balls. At first, I couldn't imagine doing wash without detergent, bleach, fabric softener, etc. But, I was game for trying them. Initially, I purchased one ball; now I'm using two, and have used them exclusively for at least a year and a half. I feared my clothes would start looking dingy; that stains would not come out; that odors might set, etc. In fact, none of these have happened! Whites are whiter than before; colored items retain their colors much longer; if you use a pre-wash stain spray on tough stains (grease, grass, etc.), they almost invariably disappear. Actually, I had several polyester blend tops that had old stains that relegated them to my only wearing them around the house for doing housework or gardening. I pre-treated those tough stains and in many cases, even those stains came out. My wash smells fresh and when I put throw in the dryer, I use the wool laundry balls also available on Amazon to fluff them up and remove wrinkles. I would recommend these washing balls to anyone. What a savings you have when you don't have to continually purchase laundry products. I notice there are cheaper versions of this product available that do not get good reviews. I will stick with this brand only.

This item really works! I bought two of them and have only used one so far. I was skeptical at first but after our first load, I was impressed. Even wet, the clothes looked very bright. I also washed our whites too. It was very impressive but I decided to see how well this item really worked by adding a little bit of baking soda to our laundry. We have hard water here where we live. The laundry ball did a great job on all our whites and colors! Also, the baking soda (anywhere from 1 tablespoon to about 1/4 cup) really took the whites load over the edge on white. They came out brilliantly white. The ball worked really good without the baking soda but I wanted to give them the best advantage and softened the water with the baking soda. These laundry balls come with almost a baby powder smell and their are tiny colored ceramic balls in the interior. I use only one ball for our small to large loads and if I have an extra large load, like sheets and a bed cover, I will use two balls. Yeah, I know, it looks like a space station and sounds like a baby rattle but it does the job! I tried to reach the manufacture to find out more about the contents. The seller I purchased mine from did not have any way to contact them on the Amazon market place. So I called Amazon and tried to get my questions answered. Twice. Amazon was not successful at getting me the information on the "80 minerals" ingredients I was looking for. I wanted to be sure there were no carcinagens, carbons, or lead, or anything like that. Although lead is a metal and an element, and we do not consider it a "mineral", I still think that the manufacture could be clearer on these ingredients, particularly because they are labeled "Eco-Friendly". I would have given this five stars but the fact I had so much trouble with trying to find out more about this product, which seems to me to be strange that neither the seller or Amazon would get me the information I was seeking, makes me suspect that perhaps these are not so "Eco-Friendly" afterall. I really am trying to do my research on this. At any rate, I am not using detergent and washing loads of phosphorus down into the pipelines which is a good thing. So far the little ceramic colored balls in there are doing their work and the laundry comes out clean. One note here, we don't have kids and we don't run around and get grease and grass stains on our clothes. Just office work and occasional outdoor hiking, walking, and normal gym type workouts. No heavy stains to clean. However, I wore my white socks around the house and got the bottoms really dirty outside just to test these balls and when I washed them, they came out snow white. No kidding! The balls came in a plastic wrap and a bar code. No instructions or anything. From what I have been reading by other reviewers, just throw this ball in the wash and let it do its thing. Then I asked about the rinse cycle and people answered my question indicating that it can go through the rinse and spin cycle too. Again, instructions would have been helpful and at least a contact number or email for questions. So far this product works good and stands up to its reputation. I don't think you need to buy expensive ones either. This is inexpensive and does the job well for us. I also bought the i-gruv dryer balls (xtra large pack of six) to the dryer and the clothes came out amazing. See my review for that under i-gruve organic wool dryer balls.

The ball seemed to work fairly well on my dark clothing, but not well at all on the lighter colored laundry. I love the idea of these eco-friendly laundry balls, mostly because I don't love all the chemicals we're wearing on our bodies and bringing into our homes. I wanted to love the laundry ball, but it just didn't appear to clean very well. The description says it doesn't work as well on white and light colored clothing, which proved to be true. But then I have to wonder if it is really cleaning the dark clothing or if you just can't see the dirt it is leaving behind. It didn't get the dirt or mud out of my kids medium-dark colored snowpants, boots, or khaki pants, even when pretreated with stain remover. One thing it had going for it is that the laundry did smell fresh and clean when it came out. I wish this ball could replace laundry detergent in my house, but it just didn't clean well enough for us. I will keep it to use on only lightly-soiled dark-colored clothing such as my work clothes.

Great Buy

I think it helps to soften our water

Works well, has certainly cut my use way down on laundry detergent.

I like it, but iffy on crusty stains (left dried oatmeal on a t-shirt). Does seem to get out odors. Instructions seem to say to soak one hour before each use. Others like it only specify soaking before first use.

Terrible, terrible, terrible, they smell terrible. Just don't waste your money on these laundry balls.
