My nephew broke a glass and it shattered over the cloth inserts for my sons fuzzy bunz! I am afraid the glass splintered on the cloth and it's going to cut my son. I've thought about trying to elwash them but I'm concerned about getting all the glass out as well as glass being left in the washer/dryer and redepositing on other clothes. Any thoughts on what I should do? I hate to throw them. It was over half my supply of expensive inserts!

I would try a sticky lint roller or a heavy duty tape of some sort. Wash them a couple of times in a basin and hang dry them. I know you will check them carefully before reusing them.

I use FuzziBunz, too. I don't think the glass could get embedded in them unless there had been pressure on them (like someone stepping on them after the glass shattered). I think if you check them carefully, they should be fine (I find a flashlight helpful in locating stray glass shards - they catch the direct light). I would examine them carefully before and after washing. If there is anything you missed before washing, it would probably be a tiny piece that will likely flush out with the water, but you can examine the washer tub with a flashlight just to be safe. If you are still anxious about it, it isn't terribly expensive to buy only the inserts. And peace of mind is priceless!

Sorry this happened! It must be frustrating and I hope you get it resolved to your satisfaction.
