My roomates and I have a well used front loading dryer that constantly grabs clothes between the drum and the front of the dryer which causes either burn or grease marks and spins the clothing item around, often stretching it. It also sounds like the drum is a bit loose and causes alot of noise.

Looking online it seems like most people get theirs stuck in the lint filter opening, but ours isn't the case.

We'd rather get a repair man or buy a new one only as a last resort. Does anyone know a relatively easy fix to this?

They do have a set of rollers which will wear out over time, so it might bounce up and down, front and back- which in turn will pinch the clothes. Or its the front seal which is a bit worn out and has a gap, my bet would be worn rollers though

Thanks for the input, I'll take a closer look and see which it might be.
