How to stop laundry sticking to drum of machine?

[FulhamTilly]

Does anyone have any tips to stop laundry from sticking to the drum at the end of the wash cycle of a washer/dryer?

I am trying to reduce the amount of hassle involved when doing laundry. I have a washer/dryer. Ideally, I want to be able to do a wash/dry cycle without having to unstick the laundry from the drum between cycles. If I can set the machine to do the wash/dry cycle immediately after the over, then it means I can leave the machine on all day and come back to dry clothes ready for folding.

If for example I wash/dry towels without unsticking them from the drum between cycles, the towels are crisp and stuck to the drum when I remove them from the machine. If, however, I unstick the towels between the wash/dry cycles then they come out fluffy (as I like them), however this requires the additional step of having to attend to the machine midday.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? Sorry that it is verbose and anal I just want to 'optimise' as DH keeps saying. I'm a Mum of 4, you know how it is... 😀

Two options that I'm aware of (though they don't always work):

Reduce the spin speed - but that increases the time it takes to tumble dry.

Wash with tumbler balls. Effective but noisy.

The only thing I can think of is to reduce the spin speed.

Thank you for the advice, I will try both these methods.

It should be a standard feature of washer/dryers to have a 'drum unstick' function... I wonder if more expensive models have this feature-does anyone know? Perhaps blowing high pressure air through the holes in the drum machine would unstick the clothes...

Mine does a Steam Shot which I don't know if it reduces clothes sticking but it is so loud !
