I should start by saying I am a fan of Seventh Generation products. But these? Brown paper with a little wax that do NOTHING. My clothes aren't softer, the scent does nothing, they don't help static...what is the point?
You're better off by not using anything in your drier than using these!

*****I already use Seventh Generation Laundry Detergent, and when I use these dryer sheets with them, the combination is perfect! I really love them. These (along with the Free & Clear Unscented Dryer Sheets) are the first dryer sheets I've used in years as I'm very sensitive to chemicals. These look similar to regular chemical-full dryer sheets but are the color of brown grocery bags with raised bumpy areas like a paper towel. They have a very subtle scent compared to conventional brands and they work very well to soften my clothes.
You should know that these dryer sheets do not soften as much as the chemical dryer sheets, but that's fine with me; before using these there were no dryer sheets whatsoever that I could tolerate so my clothes were pretty stiff. In addition, the sheets don't leave anything behind that I'm allergic to, or anything at all that I can notice besides softness and less static cling.
I had been very impressed after first trying the Free & Clear Unscented Dryer Sheets and so I also tried these, and I do like a nice scent even better. Both are great and it just depends upon whether you want no fragrance at all or a very light, subtle, natural fragrance. Neither bother my chemical sensitivities. I have continued to use these for about two years and am very happy with them.
Highly recommended.
*****These dryer sheets left greasy, oily stains all over a brand new dress that I put in the dryer (inside out) for about 15 minutes to remove static. Needless to say I'm furious. Not only was my dress still full of static, but I now have a completely ruined oil-stained dress on my hands. I'm hoping the dry cleaners will be able to work some magic to restore my dress, but in the meantime, I'm trashing my Seventh Generation dryer sheets. I didn't see any warning on the box indicating that the essential oils in the product could potentially stain clothing. I see no merit in using natural laundry products like this if they're only going to destroy my clothing.I have a sams/costco sized stash of other detergents/softenersbut now that I found these, they are all I use. I love the fresh scent, and it doesn't break out my skin or make my eyes itch to sleep on sheets laundered in seventh generation productsa rarity. Plus, they are compostable unlike polyester sheets and wellthis is just a warm fuzzy thingon the box they even encourage you to hey. tear this thing in half, you probably don't need the whole thing. The only drawback is that it doesn't do that quick "I have cat hair on my black pants I'll run a quick dryer sheet over it to remove the hair" thing very well. Meh. I have lint brushes. And a lot of my old kind of dryer sheets that I apparently not going to use for anything else.A+.....I'll admit, these smelled gross in the store. They smelled equally gross when I got them from amazon... HOWEVER, the dryer scent was minimal and didn't stink..it was NICE. I didn't experience any of the staining that i experienced with the purex washer/dryer sheets (those used to leave terrible stains in the dryer that would require a seconds washing). These do not do that.... they work great. I also found that these worked better than the freeandclear ones from 7th gen. I have a fleece (which is says not to use these on, but w/e) that is always full of static with other softeners.... not this one... .static gone! I also appreciate that these are compost able (I don't compost them, but I appreciate that it isn't plastic that can't be recycled). YES, they are weird when you have been using the snuggle or whatever for 20 years...but you'll get used to it if you try. Especially when you compare ingredients!
