Has anyone tried the ECO friendly wash balls?

I knew I'd get some of these type responses

But if anyone is interested

Beron brand wash balls

No way that thing works as well

A lot of the reviews seem to indicate otherwise

And the machine is doing most of the work anyway

that looks awesome

my gf would veto this b/c i think the smells of laundry are 85% of why she does laundry

We use the little PODS things. When throw a load on, I put two in the wash to give it some extra cleaning power (or at least in my head). Cost per wash isn't that much, plus after a year I'd have to buy a new one because in my mind I would think no way it's still effective.

That isn't true. Agitation certainly is a part of it but when you are talking dirts and oils, you need more than that to break them down. That is where detergent comes in.

Want cleaner clothes? Use a detergent that has enzymes (in ingredient list) or add a laundry booster like Oxy, Biz, borax. If you use a good detergent (Tide, Gain, Persil), you don't need a lot, like a tablespoon or two. Some people use the little cups that come with medicine instead of the caps on the detergent bottles. People tend to use too much detergent.

Uh.. will they do a better job then Tide powder? It doesn't seem like they could... so why would we want them?

---

Why wouldn't it do as good of a job? Because your dumb arse just declared it to be so on a message board?

Do they taste as good as tide pods?
