Dryel At-Home Dry Cleaner Review

Dryel® is an at-home dry cleaner that uses steam to refresh and deep clean clothing without harsh chemicals and for a fraction of the cost of professional cleaners. I normally shy away from purchasing clothing marked "dry clean only", especially summer clothes, because the cleaning bills can add up to be more than the cost of the garment, not to mention having to make two trips to the cleaners to drop off and pickup.  I am thrilled to have a quick, effective and affordable at-home alternative. I tested it on a silk blouse that needed refreshing.

Included in the starter kit is the following:

- Garment Protection Bag for Steam Cleaning
- Stain Pen which can be used to pre-treat stains or as an on-the-go stain remover
- Odor & Wrinkle Releaser
- 4 Dryer Activated Cleaning Cloths

The reusable patented bag is large enough to hold up to 5 garments (shirt size). Simply fill the bag to the clearly marked fill-line and add one of the cleaning cloths that are provided. 

Set the dryer for 15 minutes to refresh or 30 minutes for deep-cleaning. At the end of the cycle, immediately remove items from bag, garments will be damp, hang to relax any creases. Discard the cleaning cloth. The garment bag will last for approximately 30 dry cleanings. 

Perfect! The top came out freshly scented and as good as new, no shrinking, fading or pulling and it is so easy to use! Dryel® can be used to steam clean any type of fabric including linen, wool, cashmere, rayon, silk, and garments embellished with delicate beading, sequins, etc. For just $9.99, the Dryel® Starter Pack cleans up to 20 items including stuffed animals, throws, pillows, curtains, and outerwear. A refill kit is also available. For a list of retailers and to print a coupon, visit dryel.com.
