Hi Joshua Wat if the washing machine still comes out dirty after the eco wash ? Need to repeat the process?

[@imjoshuawong]

U may need a few rounds of tube cleaning before it clears out all the debris.

[@gunbuster363]

Hello, may I ask how does the powder work? How come the debris does not come out while we are doing laundry, but come out magically after you put the powder?

[@imjoshuawong]

I'm not a chemist but it should have some substance like vinegar and baking powder that does the magic

[@dogfamily3115]

What cycle did u leave it to open and the water still inside??

[@imjoshuawong]

1 cleaning cycle (with the Daiso powder), left it soaked for 6 - 8 hours, continue to remove all the water, manual clean it (remove all the debris) then performs 1 cycle tube cleaning with normal water and manually clean it again (remove all the debris)

[@MrTStat]

Wow, I said I would find a video about this but did not expect it to be from Malaysia with the same WM type lol

[@imjoshuawong]

Hello Bintang. Samsung Washing Machine kinda common in Malaysia though. Thanks for leaving a comment here. Take care and stay safe.

[@clo6476]

is the Eco tub clean cycle alone not enough?

[@imjoshuawong]

Nope. There are some stubborn debris needs chemicals to clean

[@thianpohlim6248]

Should I open or close the door when soaking it ?

[@imjoshuawong]

Close it, some washing machine would halt the process if its no closed

[@nabilahhanim5485]

Hi joshua.. I saw another video frm KZbin on how clean washing machine and was quite surprise that the video demo looks exactly like urs...but on a different product. Not sure if u're aware of this.

I'm sure there are a lot of different products that do the same. Thanks for highlighting. Cheers!

During waiting time for 5 to 6 hours can we close the power supply or just leave it on?

[@imjoshuawong]

The soaking time? I turned off the washing machine power. Then resume after that.

[@piqahtakhrin]

@@imjoshuawong okay thank you so much🙏🏻

[@yonlymaster5497]

I bought this powder at daiso too. All the black stain came out like yours eventhough I use it twice a month. But it's hard to empty the dirt, I have to restart the function (wash) again and again until sometimes more than 10 times then only I discovered it cleaned....wash & drain wash & drain repeatedly more than 10 times. .. (eventhough I wipe the dirt each time finished draining still the dirt will appear when I continue second wash , third wash, forth wash and so on until many times then the dirt is lesser & clean.) Do you have any suggestions so that I can just wash and drain one time only?

[@imjoshuawong]

It will not be completely clean unless you dismantle the drum for cleaning. You may have 2 rounds cleaning which should clear off some of the specks of dirt

[@mielegirl]

I've done a lot of research. Unless you periodically clean your machine from the time you buy it, the only way to truly clean the drum, is to dismantle the machine, take out the drum, and SCRUB the outside of the drum. All the gunk sticks to the outside of the drum, and it builds up to the point when the gunk starts coming off in pieces in various sizes and infiltrates to the inside of the drum and these pieces stick on your laundry. By the time you see these pieces of gunk, it is generally too late to clean the outside of the drum effectively by just using cleaners and cleansers. There are many you tube videos showing us what the outside of a dirty drum looks like

[@glennedralin6075]

Hello there, may I know what's the name of your cleanser?

[@imjoshuawong]

It called washing machine drum cleaner. You should able to find it at Daiso, Mr. DIY or your country dollar store

[@nothingness7580]

Can i put it in the powder drawer? Instead of putting it immediately the drum?

[@imjoshuawong]

Can also, just you make sure do one round cleaning and let it soak for few hours

How to put back the black rubber in the filter

[@imjoshuawong]

It has a gutter that can just slot it in. I'm not too sure you are referring to the same model that I have

[@prettybell2114]

The cleaning of the brown residue is very tough… very dirty and hve to wipe all out right?

[@imjoshuawong]

U need to wipe it out immediately, or else once it dried, it will be very hard to remove

[@amarjotkaur9777]

Where can I find this product in New Zealand??

Hi were the debris totally removed after u did the eco tub clean function?

[@imjoshuawong]

Not really, I need to do 2 rounds of cleaning and remove the debris manually.

[@OctaApe]

Cool video. That water pressure into your machine is soooo slow, must take 5 hours to fill lol.

[@imjoshuawong]

Hahaha! On this video, I top up the water manually

[@heyno9383]

I have the exact same machine, the brown flakes keeps ending up on my clothes 😪

[@imjoshuawong]

You need to do a few rounds of cleaning to fix the problem. Or get an expert that can dismantle to perform a thorough deep cleaning.

[@Tony-sc1dq]

So how long should we let it soak? 6 hrs or 6+6= 12 hrs?

[@imjoshuawong]

Depends on how dirty is the first clean, I normally soak it overnight for about 6 hours, then I'll do the cleaning.

How do u drain your water after soaking??? U press any of the button or just manually took out😂😂very emergency

[@imjoshuawong]

Instead of restart all over, I switch to rinse which the machine would drain out all the water

[@killbot86]

You did not mention that you have to use hot water when using this cleaning powder.....

[@imjoshuawong]

Not all washing machine has hot water feature including mine. It works with normal water as well

[@killbot86]

@The Ideal Mobile Maybe but you can disconnect the hose from cold water tap and connect it to hot water tap

[@imjoshuawong]

@@killbot86 My washing machine only got 1 water inlet which is normal tap water

[@saidatiakbar3952]

The water is small, you better use a king kong barrel to meet your water needs

I have fixed the problem by cleaning the filter. You may check out my video on how to fix slow water flow on the washing machine.

[@thlee3]

why cant you just let the machine flush it?

I do it with bleach, this product seems to be more effective compare to bleach.
