Bad smell
If you often open the door of the washing machine , take out the freshly washed laundry and notice an unpleasant smell that comes from the drum but has also been transferred to the laundry, it is time to thoroughly clean your appliance.
The smell may actually be due to the buildup of cleaning products, limescale, or excessive moisture in the drum or drains. Whatever the reason, we have good news: it can be removed!
