Review on Pack of 3 Downy Fabric Softener Dispenser Balls by Marta Bruns

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good but not great - what I learned.

This is the first fabric softener dispenser I have ever used. I've only used Bounce towelettes in the past. We have a public laundry room in our condominium. I guess three packs because I often do three downloads at once. Our machines do not have dispensers. I wasn't sure how many to fill. I know our cars are bigger than stock but I'm not sure how much bigger. Through trial and error, that's what makes our clothes so soft! (Regarding smell, I just don't use dyes, no smell): - fill ball up to the bottom line and drop it over the load - then drain the water from the ball! (learned the hard way) - Throw a dryer sheet in the dryer along with the load. Super soft! I'm only giving this three stars because functionally it's a bit of a pain. It's difficult to pour liquid without getting on the outside of the ball, resulting in a sticky, slippery mess on your hands. Also, about 15% of the time the bullet doesn't open at all when loading. I'll use them until I find something more effective. But not bad for the price!

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • unreliable
