    I've reused mine only 2-3 times then pitch them, the one you can buy at Jo Ann's can be used multiple times...it is a cloth.

    I do use them and they really work. You can tell when you take it out of the washer.

    I used to use the Carbona Dye catchers, but have been using the Shout Color Catchers since they have been available here. I always use one when I prewash new fabrics and when I have dark clothing to launder. They both work great, but the Shout product is easier to find and less expensive. (The directions on the Carbona product say you can use them many times ?30? or so,but who counts!)

    I use them as well. I prewash all my quilting fabric with them before I take the fabric downstairs to my sewing room.
    I will also occassionally use them in the regular laundry if washing reds or purples with lighter clothing.

    i use them, i had a finished quilt bleed and i rewashed with the color catchers and it saved my quilt. now i put 3-4 in the wash with new quilts and just amazed at the color that the sheet comes out of the wash.
