Clothes damaged because of washing machine

Hello,
My wife did laundry this morning and when the machine finished, all our clothes were completely torn. I looked for the cause and eventually found a [BH-Reifen] that apparently ruined the laundry. Is that even possible? And how can we avoid in the future that these wires come loose from the [BH]?
Thank you.

Hello Hans, oh dear, that really turned out badly. I have a pretty good tip for you: there are small fabric pouches with zippers, into which you can put bras and then put them in the washing machine. The underwire cannot come out of this pouch.

Yep, there are such bags. That's why you put shoes in these bags when you wash them :D. Inside there, they get clean and don't ruin the other laundry.

Do it like that...

Hi,
give your wife a laundry bag, so she can put not only the bras with the underwire in it but also socks and other things that always disappear in the machine. By the way, I am sure that there is a parallel universe where the socks reappear.

with us, a pillow always goes in there, so you don’t have to buy anything extra. Socks go in there too, so I don’t have to search for them in all the laundry. So far, that has always worked wonderfully.

Such parts are always washed by hand with me, because the hangers are so small they easily pass through a net. I also once had to have my machine opened because the hanger was caught in the gap of the drum. That caused terrible noises. You can really only prevent that with hand washing.
