Do those spikey dryer balls really work?

Question

I bought 2 of those spikey dryer balls you put in your dryer today and I was curious what all they do and do they really cut your drying time in half? Thanks!

Answer 1

I have them and they don't really make a big difference. They're really loud as they bounce around in the dryer and they kept knocking out the light in my dryer because they are hard and bounce around in there really fast!

They're ok but they're not all they're cracked up to be....

Answer 2

I have them and I think they work pretty well. I haven't noticed extra noise with them and they haven't caused any problems. My towels seem to come out fluffy and the heavy loads, like jeans and work clothes, seem to take less time to dry. I like them. Hope this helps. Good luck!
