Carbona Color & Dirt Grabber Reusable, 1-Count (Pack of 4)

This work so well! Love that they are reusing and really catch the color

I recently attended a quilt conference and purchased several yards of beautiful hand-dyed fabric. I also purchased the recommended setting solution and followed the seller's instructions. I'm an experienced quilter and just couldn't believe that the solution was going to sufficiently help with dye retention such that I could launder all of them together so I threw in two of the Carbona reusable color grabbers. You can see the result from the picture. The fabrics ranged from light yellow to deep jewel tones. There was zero color bleed on even the lightest of them because the color grabbers absorbed it all! Whew. Going forward, these two will be used for other dark loads and the remaining other two, which still appear white, will be for my lights. I rarely write reviews but this worked so well and saved the day, I decided to. I also appreciate their environmental friendliness.

This is an unscented cloth that is placed in with the wash to absorb any color leakage, bleeding, etc. It's reusable for 30+ loads and then can be used as a cleaning rag. Use this reusable version to keep all those disposable color grabber sheets out of the landfill! It is good quality cloth, so it can be repurposed after it no longer absorbs the color. I've used them well past the # of loads and they still seem to work (the cloth keeps getting darker). Fantastic product!

After a few color run “accidents” when my kids did laundry, I started using the disposable color absorbers. They work great but when I had a hard time finding them, I ordered these. So far, I’ve used one cloth approximately 15 times and have had no issues so it’s definitely durable. It turns dark as you use it because it absorbs color. The only downside is that there is no way to know for sure when it’s “done.” I don’t want to take any chances so will probably toss it and use a new one soon.

These color grabber cloths were hard to find. I got my first two from Joann Fabrics. Despite the short limit of use the box recommends, I used the first one for YEARS before my son mistook it for a washcloth. The second one I used for two decades before it finally disintegrated. I used both in every load of wash I did and they both kept my laundry from having bleeds in all the years I used them. So, I was happy to find this set of four and for a good price. I gifted one to my nephew and he hasn't turned his laundry pink even once since he started using his. Just a note, though, most often I was my clothes in cold water. I do, however, mix reds with whites and blues, and have had no issues.
