How to Clean a Front Load Washing Machine

When it comes to cleaning, washing machines are a commonly overlooked appliance. Just because its purpose is to clean doesn’t mean it cleans itself. Front Load Washing Machines get down right nasty. We have smelled some STINKY washers. Mold is a HUGE issue with Front Loaders. Luckily we’re here to show you how to get your machine clean and smelling fresh.

Doesn't hearing her voice motive you? I enjoy that. Although I don't have a front loader.. I think I'll do my frig. Thanks Sarah. 😊

BE SURE TO READ YOUR MACHINE'S MANUAL before cleaning! I have a Bosch compact front loader and the manual says to never use chlorine bleach as it may damage the machine - my old Bosch machine even said using chlorine bleach would void the warranty. No big deal for me, I never use the stuff anywhere - but it would suck to have something go wrong and then be told I had no recourse because of a cleaner I used. If I have mold or mildew, I use an enzymatic cleaner. And I run the drum clean cycle with the OxiClean washing machine cleaner, which works great.

One piece of advice I received when I got a front loader was to dry the inside of the rubber seal with a cloth after you are done using your washing machine (which sometimes seams like never because I'm always doing laundry!). It is not foolproof, but I do believe it has helped prevent mold and smells from getting out of hand.

I leave my door open after washing a load to allow it to dry. Helps tremendously.

[@izabelazajac574]

Make sure you always keep your washer door and detergent drawer open between washes

[@aprilknerr4443]

Extremely helpful! Thanks Miss Sarah!

[@gocleanco]

You are so welcome!

[@wendiweberpal9741]

My seal is a little moldy. I've been putting off cleaning it, but after watching this, I'm ready! Thank you.

[@gocleanco]

You can do it!

[@fiercepandaz]

We have the exact same washer, thankful for these tips

[@lynncornwall]

This is my Sunday! For hard water do I vinegar one day then bleach another after a cycle?

[@travisgowans4124]

Laundry sanitizer and a self clean cycle do wonders once a week.

[@emilielucas3499]

Hi Sarah! Love the video and tips. How often would you recommend doing this? Thanks!

[@gocleanco]

At least once a month!

[@tamarajanzen7867]

Ugh...i need to do this again...I've been putting it off

[@dulcamarabuffo]

Here's a tip:put the detergent drawer in your dishwasher! It then gets cleaned in every crevice.

[@susanallison8262]

The drain clean out at the bottom? And gooey filter?.....

[@kathybellamy5207]

Yup, I am due to do this again this week, set up a reminder in my phone. Do you have a video for dryers as well?

[@gocleanco]

Not yet, we will add it to our filming list

[@melodylistoe9143]

What is the best way to clean a dryer? Same thing?

[@cbtales]

It's like you heard my husband and I talking about this! Maybe this is what I'll do when the baby goes down for his nap

[@gocleanco]

Haha I promise we aren't spying on you. We just know the trouble spots in most homes. If you have a stinky washer you are not alone.

[@getouttheretoo]

What rubber gloves do you use? They look great, I’ve been trying some but find they aren’t waterproof for more than a day 😢

[@gocleanco]

Honestly these are just grocery store brand, maybe that is something we should test. Because you are right there is nothing worse than a leaky glove.

[@Simple_and_natural]

@@gocleancoi had the same question, looking for good heavy duty gloves

[@guiangella]

You shared a product on instagram before, a black liquid that cleans mould from a front load washing machine. Do you still recommend that? (I forget what it's called)

[@gocleanco]

amzn.to/3IjoWho You must mean this? It's a great product but so hard to get. Currently sold out.

[@BunnyDaysBrittany]

@@gocleanco You can order Glass Guard directly from the company!

[@demigough7934]

I'm literally panicking about the damage the bleach will do to the next few rounds of laundry...

[@dinacorrea4707]

How do you figure that you can't mix bleach & Vinegar?

[@gocleanco]

When you mix bleach and vinegar you create a chlorine gas. Which causes respiratory issues. Coughing, wheezing, burning of the eyes, nose and throat.

[@dinacorrea4707]

@@gocleanco I mic bleach & viniger, never had any problems
