You're Welcome, Keven!
Oh my ... I always set the dial to 5 minutes; so far nothing eaten!
With my very first one, I was a teller in a bank and had a lot of "perma-press" clothing (it was the late 1970's/early 1980's after all
...) and I would always set the dial to 5 and washed. I never had wear problems.
The only clothing that seems to really get "hit" by the impellers are my blue jeans. I turn them inside out, but the buttons and zippers hit the impellers.
Greg N. (gansky1) taught me a little trick about spinning and rinsing and it works great! These little machines can get suds lock really easily but if you run some water in the spin tub while you are loading the clothes in it, it will cut down on the suds lock and you can sort of "swish" them a bit under the running water and achieve a little rinsing action at the same time! Thanks for that tip, Greg!!
All lots of fun if you like interaction with your laundry!
