You are not supposed to use color catchers in a front loader. Says so right on the box. I used to use them in my old machine and just tossed one in my new washer not knowing. It grabbed the color all right, then deposited it on a light colored garment (i think during the spin). It stuck to the shirt and left a nice little square of color.

For all ... please keep in mind that the Colour Catchers/Collectors do not stop colour bleeding for future washes. It is not a treatment. It may take several washes before bleeding stops ... or a Retayne treatment to do the job.
