why this eco-swap wins
our team has tried thousands of products, and here's why we love this one.
- Cora Ball both tangles fiber and hair from our clothing and reduces the amount of fibers breaking off our clothes, helping them last longer and protecting our lakes, rivers, and ocean.
- Cora Ball is protecting the whole load of laundry. Even natural fibers like cotton are dyed and treated with chemicals during prodcution.
- Cleaning is easy and similar to cleaning a hairbrush. When you see fuzz/lint balls that are big enough to grab, simply pull them out and throw them in the trash bin (we are working on finding a way to upcycle or recycle them, until then just do the same thing with this lint that you do with your dryer lint).
