I used this for a few cashmere sweaters. It did freshen them up, but they didn't really seem clean. I'd use this occasionally, but I don't think it replaces the dry cleaner.

It does clean some but I found that it doesn't get it REALLY clean. The dry cleaner does a much better job but I guess this will do in a pinch if the garment is not filthy. Also the scent is very strong and it didn't seem to go away after the cleaning. This is a deal breaker for me because I'm very sensitive to smells and I get headaches from strong scents.

I love the idea of this product... to dry clean at home. I have been using this for many years, but still don't think that the product cleans dirty laundry. It feels more like it freshens it up. I use it to refresh more than to clean, but still recommend it as a value alternative to clean clothes that smell dirtly Vs being stained dirty

This product is a great idea. I love the convenience and ease of use. Though the package says you can use for sweater, jeans, etc. I had especially looked forward to using it with tops that have sequins, beads, or other embellishments that are easily ruined when washed and HAVE to otherwise be hand washed or dry cleaned. My only problem with the product was that it didn't really clean dirty clothes. (Or maybe I just didn't spray enough product on the clothes? If that's the case, there should probably be a note on the package saying how much to spray, because I didn't see one. But again, I love the concept and will definitely continue to experiment with the product.

I think Dryel is great for "refreshing" my dry clean only clothing. I usually try to get a few wears out of a suit before taking it to the cleaners, and Dryel is great for those in between times. However, were soil or dirt, stains, etc a concern, I would go to the cleaners and skip the Dryel.

This is great to get things freshened up but it doesn't work as well as the dry cleaners. I have a wool coat I needed clean and didn't want to spend the money at the dry cleaners. I used Dryel on it and it was a lot fresher. It looks better than it did but not quite dry cleaner clean. This is good as a substitute when you can't afford dry cleaning or need something freshened up in a pinch.

I used the Dryel product to clean my husbands silk shirt and three scarves with silk in them. The shirt turned out smelling fresh, but was slightly wrinkled, considering it's clean on a fairly high heat in the dryer I expected it to turn out wrinkle free. If I had taken it to a dry cleaner it would have been, but I would have paid more! So, I guess it was worth a few wrinkles. My scarves turned out nicely, they were winter ones. None of these items were very soiled or smelled incredibly bad to begin with so it was really difficult to know for sure how well the Dryel worked. I'm not sure if it cleaned the items or just made them "smell" clean. I would like to try it again on something a bit dirtier, though I did spot that there is an additional item you can buy for "spots", which I do not have. I'm on the fence as to whether I would buy this. I usually end up taking most items to the dry cleaner, but i suppose for scarves and items that are not very soiled I would use this product.

I tried Dryel with a wool rug. Not sure if that was the right product to try it on, because it did not come out smelling fresh and clean at all. I guess I will have to try it on a piece of clothing instead!

I received the free sample of Dryel a few weeks ago but didn't have occasion to use it till just today. I used to to clean a delicate dry-clean only shirt with lace, a dry-clean only raincoat (I know, right?!) and a dry-clean only trenchcoat. The delicate top didn't have any stains or spots but after a few wears needed "refreshing". Both coats had spots and staining on them. I followed the instructions to spray any soiled areas. I placed all the items in the bag with the cleaning sheet and set the dryer on medium for 30 minutes as instructed. When the time was finished, I opened the dryer to find the lace shirt has escaped the bag as had the cleaning sheet. The zipper to the bag had opened a few inches allowing a couple items to fall out. Unfortunately, that meant the two coats didn't get cleaned because the cleaning sheet has escaped. I used my second cleaning sheet and treated the two coats again, as spots were still visible. I placed them back in the bag, made sure the zipper was very tightly closed, and set it for another cycle. This time, more of the spots and stains came out of the two coats. There are still some leftover stains but I don't expect the product to be perfect. In the future, I would use Dryel for last minute dry cleaning needs (such as a last minute event or if I didn't realize the clothes I planned on wearing that night had a stain or spot and there wasn't time to visit a dry cleaner).

This may seem to clean your clothes but they do not come out smelling as if they were laundered

The good, the bad, and the ugly truth. I love the idea of dry cleaning at home, saving me money and being much more convenient. It is also great for that last minute dressing need, when you never would have had time to get it dry cleaned. But the product left a smell I didn't care for on the clothing. I know that the scent of traditional dry cleaning isn't perfect, but it has never bothered me the way that this smell did.

NIce to have on hand, but I'm not sure its a cost or time saver vs traditional dry cleaning. Smell was pleasant.

This product helps cut down on your dry cleaning costs if you have items that really just need a refresh or light touch up. Does not work well on bedding or anything with a stain

OK so i used this and was not really impressed with what it did or did not do to a white shirt-- just my thoughts but I will try it agin on other items

I needed to freshen up some clothing, so I was happy to use Dryel to do just that. I was pleased with the results, and the opportunity to save money on dry cleaning. No shrinking was noticed, although if the items were really soiled, I'm not sure how they'd clean up. I didn't have that job for Dryel this time! :-)
