Washing Machine Leaving Clothes Too Wet? 4 Tips

1. Check the cycle used. If possible, switch to a higher-speed spin cycle.
2. Make sure the drain hose isn’t kinked or restricted.
3. Check the size of the load. An overloaded or underloaded washer can become unbalanced and spin at a reduced speed. Add, remove or redistribute items and start a drain and spin cycle.
4. Don’t use an extension cord. Extension cords can cause overheating and machine shutdowns.
