Who's stuck their magnetic rug/boots in the washing machine?

And how did it go?!

I've a rug and 2 sets of boots that could do with a good wash but too scared to put them on a cool handwash setting in washing machine.

Also the carnage I would cause by trying to wash them in the bath probably wouldn't be worth it!

How have you washed yours and how successful has it been? What detergent did you use (if any) and what were the end results?

My gear is Bioflow if that makes any difference.

Thanks all.

Ive put my magnetic boots in the washing machine with my normal boot wash and they come out fine.
tbh never even thought about it, woops

I have done it for years .

I have and they were fine. I did wonder if it was a good idea before doing it!

Me too, normal non bio detergent, no problems.

i have always hand washed, cold water with a bit of horse shampoo. wraps in a bucket and scrubbed rugs under the hose.......they may LOOK ok after the washing machine experience but how do you know you arent affecting the magnets/how they work?

30 minutes in post-washing machine magnetic boots still seems to sort out filled legs.

Have always done this - and its been fine

good to know but i think im still too scared to try it lol!

I'd worry it would affect the motor of the washing machine because of the magnets

Thanks a lot, will be brave and stick the lot in the washing machine, just need to pick up some non-bio stuff then. Will probably stick the rug in an old bedsheet to minimise banging.

I can't believe I'm nervous about doing this, really need to get a grip!
