Came across this picture on Google. Can this this actually happen? Or is it just staged?

![]() And as Eugene said we see much worse, I have removed as many as 30 small pieces of clothing from the bottom of GE TL washers. It comes from sloppy careless loading and of course loading too much clothing and it just goes over the tub cover as the machine starts washing [ on these machines the entire tub assembly drops down over 2" once it has filled for wash and leaves a big gap at the top ]
We often get a service call when the clothing gets caught in the belt and the machine locks up, On the GE stacks the clothing gets caught and wound up around the motor cooling fan and rips the speed sensor off the motor and ruins the motor assembly, I wounder how many fires this has caused ?

That washer shown looks like the insides of a DRYER!!!!Moral of the story-DO NOT try to do comforters in that washer!!!"We need a BIGGER washer"to go with on a famous quote from a movie--"We need a BIGGER boat!" |

Stuffing a comforter in a washer is a way to destroy the washer and comforter. It’s better to just go to the laundromat and wash bulky bedding such as comforters and large bulky blankets. Since I have the Maytag A606 and DE306 as my only working machines, I am pretty diligent about not overloading the A606, and I might underload the A606 slightly, but I always try my best to be gentle with that machine along with the DE306 since it has a smaller capacity as well.
There might even be people who overload their LG top loaders, and try to stuff multiple comforters in them... |

OL the LG TL washer-figure this can lead to "spin-splode" incidents-if so cockpit error-NOT the washer. |
