I was so excited at the prospect of the Bounce sheets actually doing the work of removing the dog hair from the laundry I GLADLY forked over the higher price for these ‘miracle' sheets that were going to take the nightmare out of laundry day. Well, they do say a sucker is born every minute.
We have two Australian Shepherds, along with two cats and a Chihuahua, but it's the Shepherds that shed…all the time. Seriously the amount of their hair I have to Hoover up daily, along with rolling or brushing it off of clothing, I don't understand how the dogs haven't been mistaken for that hairless breed yet. Not to worry they still have LOTS of hair to shed on everything, but I digress. These new Bounce sheets have absolutely zero affect. Oh I'm sorry, I must give credit where it's due. The new Bounce dryer sheets didn't seem to to remove any more of the dog hair from the laundry but the clothes (and ALL the still clinging dog hair) did smell much nicer than when I first put the laundry in the washing machine.
I've been reading some of the responses from the company and I mean seriously??? HOW can ANYONE, much less someone on the research and development team, use these dryer sheets and not notice that they FAIL at their PRIMARY stated purpose? DON'T waste your money on these dryer sheets, unless of course you happen to be extremely wealthy and don't have anything better to do with your money, then by all means…go for broke. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND these dryer sheets if you happen to live in a home without pets or if you have hairless cats and/or dogs and these sheets MAY even work well if your fur baby is a Portuguese Waterdog as they only have a single coat and shed very little. Apart from failing at their primary stated purpose these dryer sheets do leave your clothes smelling nice. Okay, it's kinda like a loud, cheap perfume (but that's still better than smelling three dogs and two cats on my blankets). The box says it's 'fresh scent' but if that's what fresh air smells like where those researchers live I STRONGLY RECOMMEND they get away from the cities go out to the; desert, mountains, oceans or the countryside, out where the wind still blows through flowers and trees not skyscrapers and millions of funky people. Who knows, perhaps if they learn that a ‘fresh scent' doesn't really smell like a two dollar bottle of perfume they might go on to actually discover how to get these dryer sheets to remove the animal hair and lint the way they claim. Well okay the sheets ARE actually larger than the regular Bounce dryer sheets. Of course you only get 210 of the larger sheets current price is $12.98 while you get 360 of the regular, smaller sheets for and they are currently selling for $10.98 here at Sam's Club. If I can figure out how to come back I'll upload some pictures of the lint filled clean laundry which would have made most of these words unnecessary. That'll teach me for wanting to make sure I got the smartest phone in the store.
