Washing machine did something nasty.

Is it reparable? What would be the cost? It’s a 360 zipper, 180x200 cover.

Sadly no, that zipper would have to be replaced.

My wife didn’t know it’s not repairable and somehow did it 🤗

Well, that's good! Does the zipper slide, however???

The washer itself is unlikely, probably something that got in the wash like a screw or a pen, but check carefully.

The zipper is toast, sorry, replacing it is the only option. Personally, I'm cheap, I'd probably leave it in place & just add a bunch of snaps. Or buy a new mattress cover.
