Unevenly distributed laundry or lumps of laundry in the washing machine drum can cause problems
such as vibration and noisy operation. The appliance can sense such lumps and will try to redistribute
the laundry. Smaller loads (e.g. one towel, one sweater, one bathrobe etc.) or clothes made of materials
with special geometrical properties are virtually impossible to distribute evenly across the washing
machine drum (slippers, large items etc.). This results in several attempts to redistribute the laundry,
which in turn leads to longer program duration.
