Fluffy blanket in washing machine

Iderown · 2019-04-21 16:29:46

Standard front loading domestic washing machine. The fluffy blanket causes the machine to shake and stop on the spin cycle. We have selected the lowest spin speed - 600rpm. Anyone developed simple solution? Or even a complex solution?

Throw in a couple of towels with the blanket and start the spin cycle again. The towels help balancing the drum and soak up some excess moisture.

If need be drain the machine before opening the door to add the towels.
