Wash-It Laundry Ball

I don't use it on heavily soiled washing but it does bedding etc. very well. It means the washing doesn't take as long too because I can advance the program after about 20 mins. Its money saving on detergent, conditioner, water and running-time. Reading some of the other reviews, I have never had a stale smell but then I always line-dry my washing, preferably outside. They last as long as they say.

Wash-It Laundry Ball

These work very well and I use them when washing needs a light wash to freshen it up. They are efficient and effective and need only a quick wash as they work throughout the rinsing programme too

Wash-It Laundry Ball

We bought one of these to carry in our campervan some years ago because of lack of space. It is a lot more convenient than convetional products and is quite addequate for emergancy needs. It has been used in France Switzerland and America and quite a few small sights in the UK where facilities are limited. The results have been great. Bolognaise, vomit, soup, dirty marks from vehicle to name but a few. Admittedly our wash loads are not as big as they might be at home but it wasn't bought with that in mind, for the use we make of it we are very pleased.

Wash-It Laundry Ball

We have been using one of these for at least 18 months now (well we are onto the 3rd or 4th ball by now obviously). I haven't counted the washes, but it seems to work absolutely fine for us. Our machine won't let us not do the rinse cycle, so essentially clothes get 'double-washed' when we use it. When the balls inside have worn down the wash isn't as good, but then it is time to replace it. Generally we are very pleased with this, it is particularly good as it takes up hardly any space and it doesn't bother my sensitive skin.

Wash-It Laundry Ball

I bought one of these balls a few years ago. As an experiment I used it exclusively on my bedclothes and I have to agree with some of the other reviews that after a few washes the bedclothes came out of the wash smelling rather stale. I personally stopped using the ball and went back to ordinary detergent.

Wash-It Laundry Ball

I bought this because I thought it was worth a try and I began using it with an open mind having read other reviews. For the first few weeks it seemed to perform as well as my usual detergent. After a while though I noticed our clothes did not smell clean. In fact they had an unpleasant, almost mould type smell. This was especially the case in the underarm areas of both mine and my husbands clothes - the Wash-It ball was not getting deodorant/sweat smells out of the fabric. I wont be buying another and will go back to using detergent which I think cleans laundry much better.

Wash-It Laundry Ball

Good idea, but just doesn't work. I bought this as I have I have two small children who both suffer from eczema, but it doesn't get their clothes at all clean. There is no noticeable difference on a 40 degree wash between using this laundry ball and just washing with water.

Wash-It Laundry Ball

I have been using my laundry ball for several weeks now and although it is good with lightly soiled items I have found it not so good on heavily soiled ones. My husband wears white shirts for work and the ball doesn't get them as clean as my normal powder used to. I also miss the soft rinse smell. My machine is on a time switch as I try to do most of my washing using the off peak electricity and the ball is very noisy in the early hours of the morning so I think it is back to my usual powder!!

I am about to order my second wash-it laundry ball,I was a bit sceptical at first but when I used the ball for hubbys jeans after he had been working on the car and they were just as clean as if I had used my usual washing powder I very impressed .
