    I wouldn't have believed it, if I didn't try it. Yup .. the blue balls work. I use the "air only" fluff cycle with the blue balls. Works like a champ. I got my dryer balls at Bed, Bath, and Beyond.

    ahem... having never owned a pair of blue balls,
    lol,
    i must ask - do these make a substantial difference in the end result on the mf towels? is it worth the bother to go track them down, really?
    my towels have been fine thus far...
    do you dry your guzlers with those too?

    I truly feel they make a small difference, especially considering you should not use and heat nor fabric softners with micros. Hey they are 10.00 and sold at Wally World, Bed Bath Beyond, Linen Things, and many other online sites.

    I'm weary of putting my micros in the dryer as there might be the possibility of them picking up trace amounts of fabric softner. Am I just too paranoid or what?
