How to

1. Read the care label before reaching for a mesh bag. A garment marked for hand washing or dry cleaning does not automatically become suitable for machine washing inside a bag. Reserve this method for items whose labels permit it.
2. Group snag-prone lace, small socks and delicate underwear as appropriate for their labels. Whirlpool recommends mesh bags to reduce snagging and stretching; LG also recommends net bags for small, lightweight items.
3. Choose a bag with room for the items to move, rather than packing them into a tight ball. Keep very heavy towels away from delicate lace or fine knits, and sort by fabric, color and suitable wash cycle.
4. Fasten the hooks on bras or other garments before putting them into a bag. If the bag has a zipper guard, tuck the pull into it so the slider cannot scrape neighboring fabric or the drum. Replace torn bags.
5. Avoid overloading the washer and select a temperature and gentle cycle permitted by the garment label and washer manual. A mesh bag may reduce tangling, but cannot compensate for a harsh cycle or unsafe temperature.
6. Remove garments promptly, reshape them gently when needed, and dry each one as its label instructs. Empty and fully dry the mesh bag, then inspect its zipper and seams before storing it.

One more tip

A mesh bag does not make hand-wash-only or dry-clean-only garments machine-washable. Follow garment labels and your washer's manual first.
