minor disaster-Bounce dryer bar

A couple of weeks ago, I decided to try a Bounce dryer bar & it was working OK until today. I opened my dryer to discover that my down jacket had been partially eviserated through a 3" rip. What a mess!! The only sharp things in the dryer were the clips that hold the dryer bar onto the tub. There were no loose feathers in the washer, so I'm sure that the problem happened in the dryer.

This is the second minor disaster this week. Earlier in the week, Charlie stepped on a plastic bottle of mint green Minwax stain & finish that he had left on the floor in the middle of the living room. I managed to get some of it up, but we're going to have to put an accent rug over it.
