The Dryer Max Dryer Balls promise to help you do your laundry faster and more cheaply.
But does it really do that?
KDKA Consumer Editor Yvonne Zanos reports you throw them into your dryer with your laundry and the dryer balls supposedly make your clothes soft and fluffy.
The dryer balls claim to save you hundred of dollars on fabric softeners, dryer sheets and even energy costs.
In the end, our tests showed that the dryer balls did not noticeably lower the drying time.
We gave it a thumbs up for softening. A thumbs down on energy savings.
At a cost of $10 -- we say not bad and give them a mixed review overall.
