My washer is broken with a large load of diapers in it.
It will agitate, but won't drain, so it can't get to the spin cycle. Dh can't seem to fix it and I don't know what to do. AHHHHHHHHHHH!

Im not going to be much help, but all I can suggest would be to take them out and wring them out by hand. Maybe roll them in a towel to pull as much water out as you can? If they haven't rinsed, you can put them in the tub with some water and rinse them that way. Good luck!
Thanks Sherri. It will take me ALL NIGHT to wring all those out.

Oh man. Do you have a shop vac? I'd vacuume it out and then forward the washer dial to the 'spin' setting.

Wringing does NOT sound like fun!

That's a great idea! That's why I come here - you ladies are full of neat ideas!

If you are really desperate, you can put them in a basket and haul them to a laundromat - doesn't sound like a good idea in the middle of the night though.... I'd come help you if I could Melanie
