Brand new washer ties clothes in knots?

I have tried everything, laying them unfolded, neatly arranged, not too many so its not over stuffed, nothing works. They just come out all twisted together - the arms of shirts with the legs of pants, etc, I can't even pull the clothes out they are in such a twisted up mess...it's driving me nuts! What is the problem?? This washer cost me $500 bucks!!!! This has happened before, so the washer is not ';defective';, I just can't figure it out.Brand new washer ties clothes in knots?
Try it on a different setting - like instead of normal wash, use the delicate setting and it should agitate slower.





You may need to practically fill it up instead of leaving it mostly empty. That may be one solution.Brand new washer ties clothes in knots?
It's always important to ';read the directions, even if you don't follow them';. (User Guide)


An additional tip would be while loading the washer, put each piece of clothing in the washer individually, in a loose wad (or ball). Be sure not to ';wrap'; them around the agitator. I've had that happen b4 also, It's very irritating.


If this doesn't work, call the manufacturer's customer support line, which will normally be found-you guessed it- in the User's Guide. :)


Good Luck
try changing the setting to one for delicate's or one that is gentler than the one you are using. It sounds like the setting you are using is very aggressive.... which isn't bad if you have stains in denim however; this will wear your clothes out faster.
Return it and get a side load washer. The agitator in top load washers twist everything and damage your clothes. Side load washers clean a lot better too!


Good Luck
You should read the manual or call the person who sold this to you and ask them why is it doing this.
Use a gentler cycle that doesn't aggitate and spin so quickly.
Just a though, have you tried a gentler cycle? Would that help?
