<\/p>\nNOW we're officially in autumn, the changeable weather means it's getting more difficult to dry clothes outside.<\/p>\n
But, amid the cost of living crisis, people are constantly looking for ways to save money on their energy bills – especially when it comes to things like using the tumble dryer. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
So one woman has left people delighted after revealing the \u00a38.99 Lakeland buy she swears by to cut down the time her dryer is on.<\/p>\n
"I have only used these once but it saved 45 mins on my drying time," she gushed of the Tumble Dryer Balls. <\/p>\n
"Really pleased and they should pay for themselves in no time at all."<\/p>\n
As an added bonus, the towels she'd put in there to dry came out "super soft". <\/p>\n
And others agreed as they revealed just how effective the little balls can be.<\/p>\n "These cut down the length of time you need to dry a load in the tumble dryer," someone else said.<\/p>\n "Clothes are less creased too."<\/p>\n As another wrote: "I\u2019ve used the wool balls in the past, they were ok but didn\u2019t last very long. <\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n "However, these helped get the wrinkles out & the washing was less tangled, the washing dried much faster.<\/p>\n "They are definitely worth buying!"<\/p>\n One person even said they'd bought another set of the balls, so now has four to hopefully reduce the drying time even more. <\/p>\n "These have helped me to reduce the time it takes for towels to dry in the tumble dryer, and it makes them soft and fluffy too without the need for fabric conditioner," someone else praised. <\/p>\n "I bought these as a gift as I have had some for several years and wouldn't be without them,"another added. <\/p>\n "They help to reduce my electricity bills by speeding up the drying process. <\/p>\n "Highly recommended!"<\/p>\n Someone else said the dryer balls worked a treat when she accidentally washed her puffy jacket and made it flat and lifeless in the process. <\/p>\n "No amount of tumble drying made a difference and the jacket looked like a cagoule," she sighed in her review of the dryer balls on the Lakeland website.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/BW_Ikea-Cabinet_Comp.jpg\")
