Troubleshooting
Dryer balls not reducing drying time significantly.
Ensure you are using all 6 dryer balls. Check that the dryer lint trap is clean and that the load size is appropriate for your dryer. Overloading the dryer can reduce efficiency.
Clothes still feel damp after a full drying cycle.
This could be due to a very large or dense load. Try drying in smaller batches or removing items partway through and shaking them out before the final cycle.
Laundry basket feels unstable.
Make sure the basket is fully unfolded and that the base is properly seated. Ensure you are not overloading the basket beyond its capacity.
Wool dryer balls have an unpleasant odor.
This is usually temporary and related to the natural wool scent or residual detergents. Wash the balls as per care instructions and ensure they are fully air-dried. Using a few drops of essential oil can also help mask or improve the scent.
