[LG front load washer damaged clothes] My clothes got damaged (torn, holes)

Troubleshooting

Let's find out more.

Foreign objects in your laundry are a major cause of fabric damage.
Zippers can tear clothing.
Clothes with long straps can become tangled, causing damage.
Laundry caught between the washer door or between the door and the gasket can also cause damage.

Try this.

Before washing, remove any foreign objects (coins, hairpins, pens, etc.) from pockets.

Remove any metal from clothing, fasten zippers and hooks, and turn clothes inside out before washing.
Be careful of accessories attached to clothing, as they can damage other garments.
Secure or tie long straps before washing, or place such items in a laundry net.
Make sure all laundry is securely inside the drum to prevent it from getting caught in the washer door or gasket.
Also, using chlorine bleach can damage clothes.
