We have been using a laundry washing ball at home at we can state that it works.

For those clothes that do not have any major stains, the laundry washing ball it is more than enough to have the clothes washed properly.

Now we are not only reducing our environmental impact by not using that much detergent by also saving money by significantly reducing the amount of detergent that we have to buy.

Detergent:

We are paying 15 euro for a 3,5 liters detergent bottle that, at 70 ml of detergent per cycle, allows us to run 50 cycles per bottle of detergent. Or, what it is the same, a cost of 30 cents per washing machine cycle.

Laundry washing ball:

We have paid 16,95 euro for our washing ball and it has a lifespan of 1000 washing cycles, or three years, which gives us a cost of 0,016 euro per washing machine cycle.

How does the laundry washing ball works?

The washing ball that we are using works by using a combination of magnets and mineral and ceramic balls. This combination it is used to increase the water PH value so impurities can be loosen more easily and washed away.

You just need to put the washing ball inside your washing machine drum along the clothes and that is it. Your clothes will be washed and no harmful substance or bleaches from detergents will finish up as part of the groundwater.

An efficient lifestyle reduces waste and expenses

The path to water conservation requires awareness, knowledge and the will to make our homes and lifestyles as efficient as possible.

Thank you for the important tips about laundry washing , if its proven by researchers that its more efficient and economic friendly than detergent then we have to encourage people to use laundry washing ball though in my experience before residues from the plastic surrounding the product itself sometimes stick inside your machine between the rubber and the drum and sometimes it is unpleasant to see those particles in it. But in the meantime ill continue using detergent wash.😉

Thanks a lot for sharing your experience. We have been using a washing ball for over five months and so far our experience it is very positive. We will keep an eye and if we find residues we will update the post. Probably it depends on the type of washing ball.
