Thoughtful Thursday: Robby Wash Ball Review and Giveaway (Ends 2/28) U.S.

Tweet

Laundry--one of those necessary chores that we have to do and never seem to end!  Actually, I never have minded doing laundry--it's putting it away that is the dreaded part for me.

Since the cost of everything has continued to rise, the price of laundry detergent has also gone up.  Even when we buy it in bulk, it is a pain to keep on putting out money for detergent that you know may not be so great for the environment.  And sometimes it seems like you need so much.



I will admit that I was skeptical at first when I got to try this product.  I could not imagine that you could just put this ball in the wash, and your clothes would get clean.  This ball is supposed to last for 12 months, and it is safe to use in water up to 180 degrees.  It will clean your clothes while preserving the color and keeping them smelling fresh.  And it is safer for your environment (and much nicer for your bank account).

According to their site, here are the technical specifications:
Technical Specifications

• French Technology - worldwide patent
• Net weight: 0.4 lbs
• No phosphates or chlorine
• RoHS lead free directive certified
• Washes: 120 washes with pack (*use 2 balls with over-sized washing machines)
• Warranty on ball: 90 days
• Contents: blue wash ball loaded with macro-molecule pellets, a stain stick, 3 extra packets of macro-molecule pellets
• Ultra high efficiency laundry solution - no need to add any laundry detergent
• Hypoallergenic and great choice as a baby laundry detergent cleaner
• Washer Temp: use in temperatures up to 180F
• 10 ounces of macromolecules are equivalent to more than 1200 ounces of powder detergent
• Reusable: ball can be used for 2-3 years
• Light fragrance for a feeling of freshness at the end of the wash cycle
• Safe to use with bleach however we recommend using our included stain stick for stain removal or a salt cleaner as this will not damage the fibers in your laundry like bleach can.
• Note: Do not place the washing ball in the dryer as this could damage the washing ball and reduce its effectiveness

Now,  in case you are wondering, I know for a fact that this works on my clothes!  I had the privilege of winning one some time ago, and it lasted the year that it claims to.  And I will tell you that when I got the chance to review one, I was more than ready to get this again!  I had considered buying another one since mine had worn out, and I do believe that these work just as well as they claim.  I have been cautious when using them in hot water--generally it is other members of my household that wash in hot water.  

The thing I also love about the Robby Wash Ball is that it is so much easier than measuring out laundry detergent.  We generally have large containers of detergent that are not user-friendly.  I hate measuring out my detergent.  Robby Wash Ball requires no measuring of any kind!  Perhaps that sounds like a minor thing, but it is certainly not to me.  

The exciting thing is that you have your own chance to try one of these for yourself!  My wonderful sponsors have agreed to give away one Robby Wash Ball Pack (just like the one I reviewed) to one of my U.S. readers.  All you will need to do is enter this giveaway using the rafflecopter form below by 9 P.M. Pacific time on February 28.  So what are you waiting for?  Get busy entering!
