I broke half my apartment’s laundry machines on accident

r/

About a month ago, I decided to do a deep clean and wash all of my clothes, sheets, towels, and rugs.

All of that took up about 4 laundry machines. Mind you I’ve done this before and nothing happened.

This time, I started the machines and everything was fine. However, the regular notification I get when they finish didn’t come, so then I went to the room and the machines stopped working. I opened them and it was filled with water.

It was so embarrassing. I had to drag all my drenched, heavy stuff into the other laundry machines and then it worked fine.

It took a week to fix and luckily they’re all working fine now.

    Never trust four laundry machines at once that’s a trap disguised as productivity. Next time, stagger the loads or risk summoning the wrath of the appliance gods and drowning your dignity in rinse water.

    I don’t know why you think you broke them…

    It sounds like they weren’t well-maintained or cleaned – or having them all running at once it was more than they could handle.

    A water back up doesn’t mean you broke anything. It just means that a drainage is clogged.

    It’s “by accident”.
    “On accident” doesn’t make sense

    Probably tripped a breaker on accidents.
