It's not just that after an unsuccessful wash, the only thing left to do is throw away your clothes or underwear.

In some cases, you can even damage your washing machine.

Leather clothing

Jackets, vests, gloves and other leather clothing become deformed after machine washing.

At the very least, it will wrinkle. And if you don't turn off the spin cycle, the clothes will become a size or two smaller.

Decor

The more decorative elements there are on the material, the less likely it is that the wash will be successful.

This applies to rivets, beads and other decorations that can come off and clog the drain.

Jackets and coats

After washing, the material may not be as dense and durable. The products will be deformed, and there will be problems with the seams and lining.

Delicate materials

This applies to silk and satin products, cashmere, lace products. All of this can wear out in the drum even in the hand wash mode.
