Now, I didn't know somebody was selling these on TV. All I knew was that Cliff's two sisters swore by them: They supposedly do everything fabric softeners do, plus help your clothes dry in less time (I didn't know about this last claim when I bought mine, though).I'm not impressed. The only thing I'm now convinced of is that I'll pass on using softeners until winter, when the static electricity makes everything cling together. Whether I use my balls or not. (Wipe that smile off your face.)
Clothes do not dry faster.
I wanted to see if it was just me, so I looked up this Consumer Reports article.
Darn it. I've been sold on another snake-oil remedy.
Reminds me of one of my favorite childhood fairy tales, "The Emperor's New Clothes".
