Are Eco Balls any good?

Eco Balls

Does anyone use them? If the claims of their website are true then they sound great and i'll buy some but I find it hard to believe they can be that good!

I used them but they didn't get sweaty odours out.

I think they're good as long as your clothes aren't actualy dirty!

I use a 'green' laundry liquid and the machine does a cold wash- this is often good enough (dcs no longer little) and planet-friendly I find

I tried them and found them no good. Did not get the washing clean. Then one split and hundreds of tiny balls were loose in my washing machine which was a right pain.

I used to use them on everything, but they don't get stains out. However, I still use them on the nappies and the swimming things so that I can put all the swimming costumes / trunks in too as detergent can damage the lycra (or whatever) in costumes.

Thanks, I think I'll give them a miss then. Mumsnet is so useful :)
