You know what it is. Buy a Miele.
Do you wash with an extra water programme and a slow spin?
Miele? Hmmmm......I’m having to use Dave’s all singing/dancing Miele now and it’s not a patch on my Bosch.
I have just bought an Indesit washing machine, it is really good. No badly creased washing, it is so quiet as well.
Too high a spinning speed maybe?
Do you take the damp washing out straight away after the machine has finished?
Are you washing at 40 centigrade our washing is fine at that temp, even when tumbled dried.
I'd go with Andres and reduce the spin speed.
I think you may be overloading the machine. Try a slower spin, less in the machine and wash at 30.
What you need is a wash tub; posser; scrubbing board and a mangle. Justa lyka moma usey da av!
Is it a washer dryer pumpjack? If so can you split the cycle? Once the washing has finished, take it out and shake the creases out as you would normally and then either line dry or put back in one by one for tumble drying.

If its not washer dryer, then check the spin setting is no higher than 1200. My Bosch defaults to 1400 and the same creasing happens to me if I dont manually change it to1200 before every wash.
My Bosch has reduced ironing switch ! Works too ! Are you overspinning ?
Can you not pause the spin so you are actually there when it spins to take things out straight away?

A good thing for ironing duvets and sheets is to invest in a trouser press.
Buy fitted sheets and patterned covers so you never have to revisit the insanity of ironing either again.
That’s really odd. I can take shirts out of mine, hang over door to dry and I don’t even need to iron them. Trying to think what the prob is with yours....
You are overloading the machine. Change your bedlinens to 'easy iron' or 'non iron'
Question Author
tried almost everything , bought 3 sets bed linen non ironing - useless !
what ill try is decrease the spin, see if that helps
dont think ive ever overloaded , its 7.5kg drum and i live alone
its a newish model, need an A level to read the instruction book it is similar size to a telephone directory.
it is a washer/dryer, so no more drying !!!!!!

i will invest in a dryer / clothes horse thingy.
If you are using the drying function as well the maximum load is 5kg so it would be easy to overload it.
pumpjack you'd be surprised......have you ever weighed what you put in the machine?
