I've seen on lots of posts that people don't put washing powder in the drawer dispenser but in a washing ball. I thought the only washing balls you could get held the liquid not the powder. Can anyone enlighten me please?

    These work whether you fill them with liquid or powder. I got fed up of listening to them rattle about, and now just put shake the powder straight into the drum. Never had any trouble doing that.

    I have recently started putting the powder straight into the drum after reading that you could do it on one of the threads. so far i have had no problems and it seems to work just fine.
