I blew up one of the dryers in our local launderette :shock:
Put a duvet in it, forgot to change the temperature and it melted into the machine :shock::shock::shock::shock::shock:
Hope yours isn't too damaged Nic!
I use a wash-bag to wash all my guinea pig bedding - it's brilliant and has probably saved my washing machine from death by hay and hair :lol:.
This is the one I have and I can easily fit two large inco pads, two large pieces of fleece (5ft x 2.5ft) and one piece of vetbed about 2.5ft sq in it at once http://www.hyperdrug.co.uk/Petwear-Wash-Bag/productinfo/WASHBAGP/.
It might not be broken :wave:
I wash vet bed all the time in mine, and every time it stops working I clean the filter out...and it's as good as new
