Excellent ❤

[@BigEighties1]

Ok 👍 I’m proud of this! Our washer was moldy and gross. Many suggested tearing apart the machine and soaking the rubber liner. Buying expensive CLR and scrubbing. I simply soaked paper towels in bleach - packed liner and layered wet paper towels over mold. I let it sit for 24 hours. It worked perfectly.

[@hansgrubber5753]

Andrea, here is another good tip. When you pull the Landry detergent tray out, look at inside with a flash light at the ceiling of the tray slot and you will find tons of mold and mildew in there. Took me about 2 hours to clean it when I first discovered it. Nobody ever bothers to look at the ceiling they normally just look down the detergent reservoir well.

[@Troll-qe1st]

Yes

[@italiangirl2440]

You can push down on the middle plastic part of the detergent drawer to get that to come out then you can clean the inside of it in the top and soak the drawer and soapy hot water in the sink

[@JustTheFactsYall]

I don’t know if I should be mad at you or love your attention to detail 😂 why did I find this comment 😂

[@sweettimage]

Thank you. Pay all that money for LG Front Loader. Never have I in 50yrs of laundry. Has maintaining a washmachine been such a hassle. Hate the dang front loader

[@magicandriches]

I agree! I've never had a front loader before, but the new home we bought has one (and no space for a top loader). Had I known the problems it would cause, I would have reconsidered. We now have remodeling plans, including moving the washer to the basement where we can fit top loaders!!

[@TowMan127]

Yeah I can’t stand it! Regret buying one and my wife feels the same way. Next machine won’t be a front loader.

[@leilaandrade6022]

As a Field Service Tech leave your door open once you’re done washing along with the soap dish. Fresh circulating air is best. A small fan propped in front of it does wonders too

[@miami3863]

I remember the days when my parents had a top washer for 20 yrs and never smelled or required regular maintenance.

[@phoenixgate007]

I do too! I miss that.

[@Ichabod_Jericho]

Modern day fabric softeners and weird soaps that aren’t free rinsing are the culprit. Most soaps back in the day were free rinsing, low potency on cleaning too.

[@pcexpress911]

I use Nellie's laundry soap, old school stuff.. Works very well.. great for hard water too.. recently unrelated tore down my front loader and was surprised how clean it was. No soap buildup or odd stuff on the inner or outer tub.. no smell of odd stuff. I run the tub cleaning mode about every 50 to 60 cycles (recommended 45 to 50)... my inner door seal is always clean too.. I don't do any cleaning of that.. but do leave open after use. That's all I do. (Nothing, not much) and my tear down shows to me the soap is not providing bi product problems and time requirements to maintain. 😁

[@KIP_KnowledgeIsPower]

I always leave my door & liquid/softner compartment ajar too & it definitely works!! …I also have 2 indoor cats & a man who has a greasy job so once every couple of weeks or so, I throw 1 old towel in there, I put a 100% natural “floor cleaner” (basically it’s just Eucalyptus Oil, purified water & a plant based suctifant) into the liquid compartment & prewash compartment (my machines manual taught me this) & then I run a full cycle WITH prewash & extra rinse on the hottest setting (mine goes to 90°C) & the inside, pipes ect clean themselves!! Throwing a old towel in there helps a lot cause the towel material kind of scrubs the inside of the barrel (mines a front loader BTW), plus although my manual says you can do it without a towel, personally I always grew up being told if you run a machine with absolutely nothing in it, it’s no good for the machine. Unsure if that’s true these days but the towel really helps scrub that barrel clean & the Eucalyptus based natural floor cleaner along with it being on the hottest setting (much more gentle but more effective than bleach in my experience, the brand I use is Earth for anyone interested), really just erases the fortnight’s worth of grease from uniforms & flushes any cat hair caught up through… There’s also a “coin trap” you can pull out & clean. It’s behind that little circle cut out along the bottom front of most machines. Sometimes it’s hidden behind a long panel. Not only does it catch things that fall between the seals she’s showing in this video, but you’d be shook how much pet hair, human hair, threads, buttons & so forth get caught up in there too!! That’s my 2 cents worth anyway & my positive experiences. I actually learned much of it from the manual. 1st machine I think I’ve ever read the manual of & it was full of bright ideas. I regret I didn’t know with previous machines. 😅😅

[@judymora3550]

I gonna try to find the coin trap you're talking about next time I clean my washer... thanks really good tips!🙋‍♀️

[@PaolaVenegas-jz2fd]

Thanks for getting right to the point!

[@frankamdur1441]

Thank you for your guidance and advice I have never thought of cleaning the washing machine or the rubber sealer‘s in the front.

[@MF-kh3uh]

Nice video. You learn something new every day.

[@benniepierce6283]

I just went and checked my front loader and you are right except mine didn´t smell probably because I always leave the door open so it dries out but then I got EXCITED because I found a key I recently lost AND money inside the rubber door gasket you cleaned!!! It pays to clean this area!! asinfo on another video of yours, I already clean the toilet tank but I see I need to be more thorough with the toilet

[@tjs197622]

Awesome info! Thank you. I have a top loader that gets pretty stinky. I also have a brand new bottle a cleaning vinegar! Going to try this out!!

[@siminmoinam2473]

Thank you for good information.

[@lupitaflores8851]

I will be trying this! I've been trying to get the smell put of my front loader for a year now. I appreciate the advice!

[@williamblanks8500]

Once a week or every other week put a cup of bleach in the tray and run it on cleaning cycle.. and always leave door open when not in use.. that keeps the smell out..

[@Nandiniseasyrecipes]

Thanks for sharing 😊😊🙏

[@sandyhossman7771]

Thank you, I don't do it every time. I keep my door open. I have a high tech dishwasher also and I never lock the door between washes. It will stink too.

[@dianac.9143]

needed video. thanks. my roomate has a front load washer. known for getting mold on the rubber ring washer also. tried bleach &all kinds of things. it hasnt taken it off. they can be replaced but id rather clean it. i clean out the barrel with a cleaner &water after each 2 loads. smells good.

[@melindabrown465]

Dumb question-what kind of Vinegar? What about using Clorox or Lysol wipes!! Great video!

[@Theothevaultscribe]

My grandma used vinegar to clean everything. She grew up poor and vinegar was the go to cleaner for all the reasons. Coffee pot, microwave, even putting a cup in the bath and shower!

[@perettelear6603]

Thank you for the video! I cleaned mine with hot water about a month ago and was so grossed out! (I’ve never had any issues with my old top loader). I leave the front door open and it helps. But I’ll start using vinegar or bleach next time. Take care.

[@italiangirl2440]

Older LG front-load washers has a magnet that lets the door stay slightly open

[@teresas.3979]

If you just leave the doors open over night that alone will prevent the smell. Hubby didn't listen to me when we first got ours and the smell started. I cleaned it and we did this several more times before he believed me and left the stupid doors open. Now almost ten years later, our washer doesn't have a smell and we do a monthly bleach or vinegar cleaning to keep the build up down.

[@weshouldsaveourselves6780]

White vinegar unfortunately can actually corrode rubber parts in washing machines so it's best not to use that. Instead you can use a laundry disinfectant and cleaner and use a hot cycle.

[@Joemil271]

You are correct stay away from vinegar

[@laurapalmer2126]

I wish this wasn’t true! Vinegar is great. Just not for washers like these.

[@allihenderson7955]

Great tip 👍 I hate when it smells 😒

[@peggybaggenstoss3817]

I use vinegar as a softener. I’ve noticed the mold is no longer noticeable on the gasket. Every few weeks I remove the laundry tray and clean with bleach.

[@jbar_85]

I also set up a monthly reminder for the monthly cleaning and just use bleach and press go and boy did it really get foamy and it seemed so clean afterwards.

[@RetrieverTrainingAlone]

Start by removing and cleaning the drain filter at the bottom of the machine which is typically clogged with gunk!

[@sjyoungbloodsj]

Eureka!!!! I figured this out and came to look at it was confirmed….

[@jbar_85]

I read my cleaning instructions from LG about how to keep it clean. I do exactly what your mom does too lol! It’s only a few months opened. I leave my door opened atleast 12 hours before I put it to nearly closed and it is open with the little thingy that keeps it opened a crack.

[@user-sw9kh3yw9g]

very good

[@rahilaadnanskitchen]

Great 👍

[@melodywollen4316]

I think the problem is that is a design flaw. I had a Kenmore in my previous home and in the rental suite. No problem with either one. Some one needs to go back to the drafting table. I follow this practice in my current home but feel it should be unnecessary

[@mikaylakras6698]

I removed the soap tray and ran it thru my dishwasher. It was gross. Then also washed out the compartment where the tray would go in the washer. It was unreal how gunky. I spoke to a buddy who repairs appliances. He said use only 1 tablespoon of detergent and no softener. It gunks up. Also I run a hot cycle once a month. Never any issues

[@wittywinter9234]

I always do my whites with bleach last. I than rinse my tray and dry the drum and door last I leave the tray pulled out and the washer door open for two days to make sure it’s dried out before I close it so far no mold or odor.

[@ginnyburley9552]

I absolutely despise my front loading washing machine. It is difficult to keep that rubber gasket clean and it’s sloppy looking to keep the door open all the time to keep it dry inside. I think these machines should come with a warning, because that mold that SO easily grows in that gasket is awful and nasty looking. My machine works really well (after 11 years of use), but when I need to replace it, I will get a top loader.

[@cjw8817]

I can't stand my front loader. None of these things help. The mold and gunk is gross and disgusting. I wish it would break so I could buy a new top loader.

[@xxkissmeketutxx]

Top loaders use much more water, just thought I'd give you a heads up 🙂

[@athenagrace8410]

@@xxkissmeketutxx The reason top loaders use more water is because unlike front loaders, the top loaders are designed to actually WASH & CLEAN the clothes!

[@factsoveremotions6035]

New front loaders have anti mold/mildew properties built into the gasket. I just leave door cracked and it’s helped a lot.

[@heatherhall7898]

11 YEARS! You should celebrate. My computer board shorted out after 4 years. The board and repairs were covers by the warranty. However, it took 4 months to get the part and a certified repairman to the house. Translation = 4 months at laundry mat.😢

[@angelinefarrington3669]

I ABSOLUTELY despise my front loader!!! I will NEVER get another!!! I can’t wait till it’s broke just so I can get a top loading again. I never had to maintain an appliance so much in my life. The top loader just had to do a clean cycle once a month. Never had any build up of anything.

[@lizskelton7128]

I like mine except for the propensity for stank! I will definitely get a top load when these need to be replaced!

[@ginawebb1999]

I had a Samsung front loader none of these problems and now i have LG and have smell, no pre set regular cycles, have to drain it...over the LG ...never again

Andrea I can’t imagine how this conversation went with your friend 😂 Hey can I come over and clean your washing machine? I bet she was there in 5 minutes to pick you up 😂 great video!

[@carolinewilson8048]

I had a Maytag and asked them about using baking soda in the washing machine. Their response was "We highly recommend not using baking soda due to the fact that it can rust the drum".

[@NewtralHuman]

@AndreaJean : Be aware that using vinegar or any acidic solution (by itself) regularly breaks down metal and causes rust and eventual damage in the long term. Using baking soda does help to dilute any acidic solution.

[@MrLumphuwa]

Nice w-machine

[@ellasfella1205]

wash your whites with lemon scent dishwasher gel the dishwasher gel removes the soap scum the mold cleans the sensors and sanitize's the machine all at once

[@tragicblush]

Does this work to remove mold on the rubber part?

[@arieswaters]

Because of space limitations I have a front load washer I like it a lot except for this Rubber seal thing on the front that always stores water in it. I live in Utah super dry climate so it doesn't smell and I do always leave the door open. But it's really annoying that that water sits in there all the time unless you mop it out

[@AuntieLof6]

I'm able to clean the inside the large rubber flap and small groove, but I can't figure out how to get under front portion of the rubber of the small groove in the front. My washing machine is also an LG from loader like your mom's and there are small rubber tabs and debris gets stuck underneath. Tips?

[@jafuni9349]

Walmart sells a baby bottle cleaner set with different sizes of brushes. Those might come in handy to get to those hard to reach places. I use them also to clean the inside of the thermos bottle straws for my kids.

[@minnie3906]

Can I use applecider vinegar?

[@catrenia72]

Have you had any issues with the vinegar loosening the rubber seals? I was using vinegar but read it can loosen any rubber seals so I stopped using it.

[@AndreaJean]

Nope 👍

[@italiangirl2440]

I would not use vinegar then. I would buy those tablets you can order on Amazon that will clean and sterilize your machine once a month.

I have a top loader and we're looking into getting a new washing machine because it is over 10 years old and it getting to the point where we shouldn't repair it we should just get a new one and it looks brand new and it doesn't smell. I never leave the top lid open because it's in my kitchen and I know my kids are going to slam their fingers in the door if it falls on them. The more and looking into a front loader the more work it seems to upkeep it when my top loader I just use a deep clraning kit every couple of months and I just wipe it down every couple loads.

[@shannonthomas8629]

If you make your own laundry soap with all natural ingredients and clean with vinegar/real baking soda, there is no stinky smells or buildup.

[@bradjohnson1229]

And with only 20-30 minutes of detailed hand cleaning per wash, your washing machine won't smell like rotting oysters. It's almost 2022 and engineers haven't figured out a way to create a front loading washing machine that doesn't stink after a few washes?

[@a.humphries8678]

Lol!! Yes!

[@lilybee_]

Yes! I bought this same washer for the small washer on the bottom. I love it except our gasket started smelling. I had no idea there was a little drain holebun the gasket that can get clogged. I still havent completely gotten rid of the smell!

[@williamblanks8500]

Yes, it’s not the engineering, it’s improper use and maintenance..

After proper research and deep cleaning I found the problem was simple she kept the door closed between washes.. it’s been a few months and the smell hasn’t returned..

Wow cool what kind of washing machine is this?

[@italiangirl2440]

She never said what kind of washer it was but I believe it's an LG. I just recently bought a used LG front load washer and dryer, I noticed inside the rubber boot was black and it was Staind into the rubber so the appliance guy I bought them from he replaced the rubber boot and water pump. My regular appliance guy came out to look at my fridge and noticed my LG washer and dryer front-load and he got excited, he said these are the best and that there's no belt that spins the washer so you never have a loose belt. Also there's a magnet in the door that lets the door stay cracked open where it looks like it's shut but it's not and it naturally dries out but it's good to take a paper towel and wipe the Rubber seal and to wipe the inside of the plastic door I love my washer it uses less detergent bleach and softener

[@jacovanderschaaf3044]

i have on the inside of the drum rubber, and have hard time to keep the rubber open while trying to clean it. is there tool that i can use to keep it open?

[@xxkissmeketutxx]

An occy strap my dude. It's an elastic cord with hooks on each end (just in case it's called something different in your country) Hook on your washer door and the other hook tethered to something else 🙂

[@scottrogers2195]

When you put the cup of vinegar in the bleach tray, do you run it on a hot cycle?

[@italiangirl2440]

Yeah I would assume that's what she meant. These older LG washers have a magnet that lets the door just a slightly cracked just enough where the washer looks good and you don't have the door hanging open

[@beekind4141]

What do you do when you already have alot of the black mold in the rubber ..I can't get it out ?

[@italiangirl2440]

Eventually that black mold Works its way into the rubber where you cannot get it out period time to get a new rubber boot for the door

[@kalijasin]

This is exactly why I stay away from front loaders. They are high maintenance and bacteria/mold traps.

[@farisasmith7109]

Love your vid but I wouldn't use rubbing alcohol to clean the rubber seal. It will eventually dry it out and the seal will crack after a while. The other suggestions are great.

I clean out my parents whenever im over there and doing laundry. The stuff i remove makes me gag. It looks like poop. The rubber seal has black splotches all over them that wont come off no matter how hard I scrub or what chemical I use.

[@ashleylocatelli1324]

No I've tried it, it doesn't work..Makes sense, I get it, done all of it.. Unfortunately when it's your parents washer or just yours for you and your partner and not a million children, It might get tough. Or what about front load washers when you try to everything vinegar bleach baking soda everything I even drain it every other load from the bottom and it smells like vomit. I've never experienced this in my life until I got a front load washer. I also have a husband who works underground who gets really dirty and kids that play in the dirt and there's just dirt everywhere on our 5 acre property. Somebody help me cause I'm running out of options and washers are expensive and ours is only 2 years old and out of nowhere it smells like barf and I end up washing clothes 3 or 4 times in a row and a have to drain it from the bottom every time.

[@annmelendez1898]

Why dose the water coming out smell so bad. When the washer starts

I have the same thing once in a while.

My issue with my front loader washing machine is the soap and fabric dispenser. I pulled the dispenser out and it was covered in mold, top and bottom. What’s bad is with mine I can’t get my hand in the very back where most of the mold accumulates. Also inside the top has so many holes where the water comes through the mold gets inside and I can’t get them completely clean. This is my first front loader and does this happen to anyone else or did I get a lemon? Any ideas on how to remove the mold?

No I have heard a lot of people with front load washers with detergent dispenser gets moldy if you can't fit your hand in there I would probably just try to spray it with a spray bottle with them vinegar. I use a denture brush to clean because they usually have two sides of bristles one like a toothbrush and then one on the top of it more angled out so that would help get the mold. But you want to leave your detergent drawer open after every load and pull it out and wipe it and let air flow get to it.

This would be a great video!

@@felichiah5845 great idea with the denture brush I will definitely use that instead of the toothbrush. Thank you😀

I use about a tablespoon of vinegar in the rinse cycle with every wash. That seems to keep it all clean and clear.

Is she left-handed, or does she want us to see her rings? Hmm!
