Frequently Asked Questions

How many dryer balls should I use per load?

You can use 4 for small loads and 6 for full loads, but we suggest using 6+ all the time because it will shorten your drying time even more. In general, the more the better.

How long do wool dryer balls last?

They will last for years! Your Friendsheep Eco Dryer Balls are reusable for 2000+ loads. Most people will use them for 2 to 5 years depending on how much laundry they do.

Can I use essential oils with these dryer balls?

Yes, definitely! You can add fragrance and essential oils to your Friendsheep Eco Dryer Balls. For a fresh scented laundry just add a few drops (3-5) of your favorite essential oil to each ball before each cycle. Allow absorption for a few minutes, then toss them in the dryer with your laundry. For maximum scent effect add the essential oil towards the end of your cycle, 10 minutes before the end, on a low heat setting.

Are these safe for sensitive skin and babies?

Absolutely! Made from 100% organic New Zealand wool with no chemicals, dyes, or synthetic materials. They're hypoallergenic and perfect for babies, sensitive skin, and people with allergies.

How big are they?

Friendsheep Eco Dryer Balls are the ideal size for softening your laundry: about 3 inches in diameter and 9.4 inches in circumference. About the size of a baseball. They are handmade so their size can slightly vary from ball to ball.
