Im rubbish at laundry!

[Pagger]

Why do the majority of my clothes always go bobbly?!! Its driving me mad!

I'll have clothes passed on to me from a friend for my baby and she has managed for her baby to get wear without them bubbling, but then within a few washes I've managed to ruin them.

We recently got a new washing machine and the same problem is still happening! What am I doing wrong?!

What temperature are you washing on?

What temperature are you washing on?

Usually just 30 and a 1000 spin?

I get bobbles on my clothes in certain places. Ì think it's friction from wearing them , especially where my bag runs on my tops. I use a bobble bobble remover comb thing .

Try putting the clothes in the machine inside out, on the delicate cycle, with a shorter spin- less friction; also, try using wash liquid specially for delicates, as some washing liquids are too harsh.

I was just going to say the same - try inside out!

 

[Clickbait]

I got one of these bobble removers and it works really well. Obviously preventing them in the first place would be easier!

 

[What could go wrong?]

Agree with inside out. I also use an 800 spin on the entirely unproven theory it reduces friction and wear.

It might be washing too many clothes in the machine? My clothes don't go bobbly and wash I on 40 and 1000 spin. I don't think that's where you're going wrong. I use liquid detergents. Maybe change your detergent? I do agree with washing clothes inside out. I do that.

I wash my clothes on 40 and 1400 spin and they don't bobble. Are you using powder or liquid detergent? How full is your machine? Are you washing baby clothes with things like jeans? Do you use a tumble dryer?
Make sure you check the labels for the clothes too as they give the correct washing instructions, maybe they say no spin or no tumble dryer. I always wash jeans separately along with work wear as they are tough fabrics. I never over fill the machine, always leave a gap that I can see at the top of the machine and I use liquid detergent which is better for clothes than powder but not too much as that is bad for the machine and makes your clothes stiff.
