My mom told me long ago that fabric sheets ruin dryers.

Has this happened to anyone?

I am using liquid softener and learned today that the dispenser needs to be cleaned out from time to time or it builds up and clogs up! It was a mess!

I've used Bounce for quite some time and my dryer is in perfect condition.

I've used dryer sheets for years & years with no problems.

I can't stand liquid fabric softener. I think it leaves a build up on clothes....

My mom has used bounce since I was a kid and she has the same dryer. It is about 20 years old now.

I am glad to hear this because I do not like the liquid softener either!

We've used Bounce and Snuggle sheets over the years without any problems to the dryer.

Towels will become non-absorbant if too much fabric softener is used too often. If that happens to you, then your other clothes have a build up too.

I don't use liquid fabric softener with towels, but I use dryer sheets all the time.

I use Bounce without any problems.

I too dislike fabric softener, however, we definitely needed a rinshing/softener, so I bought a Downy ball and I use white vinegar in it. Works like a charm.
