As a cloth-diapering family of five, laundry is something I do every day. While other chores may not always get crossed of my to-do list, laundry is one that I never take a break from. After years of drying our clothes with toxin-filled dryer sheets, I made the leap to plastic dryer balls several years ago. But not only were they so loud, I also started noticing small holes in our clothes from the dryer balls—and I learned that the chemicals used to make the plastic dryer balls are terribly toxic. So I decided to switch to LooHoo wool dryer balls.
LooHoo wool dryer balls couldn’t be easier to use. Just throw them in your dryer with your clothes and dry as usual (though you will notice your clothes dry even faster using LooHoos). Leave them in the dryer and they are all set for the next load. LooHoo dryer balls are so well made, they will last through hundreds of loads of laundry.
We noticed a difference with the very first load of laundry. Not only did the clothes seems softer and fluffier, but the dry time was reduced as well. So not only is my laundry non-toxic, but I am saving energy (and money) by reducing dry time. Multiply that by hundreds of loads of laundry and LooHoo is a clear winner. Added bonus: wool has the ability to absorb toxins and odors, so your laundry will smell fresher, too!
LooHoo is a mom-owned small business that is run right here in the USA. When owner, Cyndi, first became pregnant, she learned that kids are more susceptible to toxins than adults and made it her mission to make her home and every home a safer place for children. She began experimenting with making dryer balls and, after many failed attempts, she found the perfect “recipe”. Just check out the “testimonials” page on her website. It is filled with fab reviews of her superior product. Not only are the dryer balls made in the USA, but the wool is 100% domestic as well. LooHoo is proud to support the American farming industry. And, LooHoo is offering SIMPLE readers 20% off your entire purchase using the code SIMPLEMOMS through March 8.
