I use the liquid, mostly because I don't have a dryer. The liquid makes your clothes smell so nice. My granddaughter told me she likes to leave clothes here. I wash them and then they smell so nice. I used to wonder why she liked leaving her dirty clothes, haha.

I use dryer sheets only and I'm very picky about the brand and scent that I use.

I sometimes use both because I have very hard well water and I hope it helps but I'm not really sure if it does. But most of the time, I use just the sheets.

dryers - new type of town dryer
I some times use both because I don't dry my bras in the dryer . The heat is notgood for the elastic. Ladies Did you know that using those fabric softeners and dryer sheet can plug up the lint trap on your dryer over time. Some sent me an email about this and how it could damage your dryer. I didn’t know whether to believe or not but when I took the trap to the sure enough it held water. A little dish soap and a brush cleaned it right up

I used dryer sheets only till recently. I bought these dryer balls which look like porcupines.. These are pretty good at softening the clothes.. I still use the dryer sheets for their nice smell.. but I don't use that many sheets now.. I'd recommend the dryer balls !! :)
