They can put whatever symbol they want on it, it's all going into the washer. It that kills the object, it's defective, and I'm going to demand my money back.
Some fancy stuff is more delicate. Wouldn't want to ruin that stuff
Delicate stuff may get:
No chlorine tag obeyed;
Washed in a separated bag;
A different iron temperature.
The list above is exhaustive. Also, it gets washed cold, because everything gets washed cold. If that's not enough, I'll be happy to throw it away after it's destroyed.
Just sucks to destroy stuff, especially if it is expensive. Avoiding such stuff altogether on the other hand...
Those labels aren't reliable, the material specification isn't reliable, if you research your clothes before buying them maybe you know how to get some reliable information.
My list is enough to practically everything, and I just don't know how to filter out the stuff that would fail it. At the end of the day, I'm not doing more work to avoid throwing away a problematic piece of cloth every few years.
