Does anyone use Soap Nuts?

I got my order today. They are going in my Christmas Stocking so I won't be using them until December. I'm wondering if anyone here has tried them and what your experience has been. My plan is to use them first on the sheets because they really don't get dirty. Do you think they work?

There are quite a few companies that are selling them. I bought from these guys...I haven't tried them so it's not an endorsement. You can google around for them or get them off Amazon too

You put a few of them in a little linen bag and throw them in with the wash. If you want a smell to your laundry you put a few drops of essential oil on the outer bag. Apparently they can be reused over and over again. I'm excited to try them too
