For those who didn’t catch the Shark Tank episode featuring the tool, here’s how it works: Each Wad-Free square has four perforated tabs designed to hold each corner of either a flat or fitted sheet. Simply attach the device to your sheets before putting them in the washing machine, and it’ll prevent your bedding from ending up in a jumbled wad throughout the cleaning cycle. Then, put your sheets in the dryer with the tool still holding onto the corners. You can expect your bedding to dry much faster. Not only does Wad-Free make doing your laundry easier, but it can also help you make the bed when your sheets are clean and dry. Because all four corners will still be tucked into the square, you’ll be able to quickly place your sheets on the bed—no more endless searching for the right corners. The invention should work on all kinds of sheets, though the brand mentions that it may be harder to attach Wad-Free to thicker sheets made of a material like flannel. It also notes that the tabs may cause dimples to appear on sheets after they come out of the dryer, but you can avoid this by removing the square from your sheets just a few minutes before the dry cycle ends. That way, they’ll come out wrinkle-free.

I will be buying a set of these for each of my immediate family members and close friends.”
