Do you HAVE TO SHOUT. - It's more likely that the pump is having a problem, could be something jammed in it, or it's just getting old. . Call a good handyman or an appliance guy, they will know.

Why do the clothes come out of the washing machine soaking wet?
If your clothing is coming out still-dripping wet, the spin cycle is not engaging. Try using a different setting on the washer. When you hear the spin cycle begin to engage, peek into the washer and see if the drum is actually spinning. DO NOT put your hand in the machine and try and start the drum spinning. If the drum does not spin up on its own, then you need repair on the washer. You might also be over-loading the drum. Have it looked at, but it is often an easy fix.
What does permanent press mean on a washer machine?
Those clothes are supposed to be ones that we never have to iron. They often need a different washing cycle so that they don't lose that feature.
How do you stop washing machine from moving during spin cycle?
It is moving because an unbalanced load makes the machine vibrate and "walk " when it is on the spin cycle. Stop the machine, open the lid. You will find more clothes on one side. Redistribute the clothes evenly around the washer, close lid, restart.
How is inertia responsible for removing water from wet clothes in a washing machine?
In a spin cycle, water can continue to move under acceleration but the clothes cannot. When the washer enters the "spin and rinse" cycle, the clothes basket rapidly rotates, and the wet clothes are pushed against the perforated wall of the basket. The clothes are trying to move with the basket, but are affected by the outward component of their velocity (centrifugal acceleration). The water in the clothes is also subject to an outward force, but some of it can move through the clothes, and out through the holes in the basket. Rinse water sprayed on the inside will also move outward through the clothes to remove most of the remaining detergent.
Why there is a vibration creating while spinning in washing machine?
While vibrations are normal during the spin cycle, the most common cause of excessive vibrations is an unbalanced load. Open your washer and look to see if more (or heavier) clothes are all on a single side. If they are, spread them out. If not, and you still feel your washer vibrates excessively, you may want to consult a repair person to see if your washer drum can be re-balanced.

To get rid of the smell in clothes that you've left in the washer too long.......put your washing machine cycle on the rinse cycle, let it fill with cold water and put in 1 to 2 cups of White Vinegar. Let the clothes soak for 15 to 20 minutes and then start the cycle again so they can spin. By that time they should be ready for the dryer and your clothes will smell nice and clean.
How do you get paint stains out of cloth?
If you have stains from a children's watercolor set, pretreat them and throw the clothes in the washer on a hot water cycle. Adult watercolors depend more on the concentration. If you have very dilute amounts of the paint, just pretreat and throw in the washer. If you have very concentrated paint on your clothes, rinse as much of it away as possible before you pretreat and wash them.

How do you conserve water in washing machines?
You can run your discharge pipe from the washer into a laundry tub with the drain put in. After the wash cycle, the water will discharge from the washer into the laundry tub. Keep the water in there and replace the washer discharge pipe back into the usual drain. Let the washer run it's normal cycle. Take the clothes out and put them in the dryer or on the clothes line. The next step is the tricky part. You have to get a pump of some sort to put the discharged soapy water from the laundry tub back into the washer. This water will still be okay to wash the next set of clothes. I would wash the whites first, though. lol
