Thoughts on balanced spinning in a F/L washer
<span style="font-family: helvetica;">I guess I have had a F/L for so long now that I just automatically make sure the load is such that it won't go off balance. For example, last week I was washing our king size mattress pad. The Samsung we had gave mixed results on how well it could balance this. The Miele is about 2 for 2 on whether or not it was able to complete the spin so I just add a large white towel to the load and that seems to do the trick. When I was testing this and had a load that didn't spin out, I just threw in a big white towel and set the machine for a spin only. At 1600 RPMs these come out ready for a short run in the dryer.</span>
<span style="font-family: helvetica;">That's about the only thing I wash that sometimes has an issue to complete the spin. Everything else spins just fine. It actually amazes me sometimes at how it starts and stops to get the load balanced.</span>
