A washing machine is a piece of equipment that is difficult to do without in the modern world.

Still, it saves time and effort. But at the same time, mistakes can be made during use, which will lead to a quick breakdown.

For example, many people believe that the door should always be open unless the washing machine is running.

It is believed that such a trick prevents the appearance of a musty smell, mold inside the drum. But experts say that this opinion is wrong.

The fact is that a door that is always open will only make the machine break down faster.

You can leave the powder tray open from time to time, and you also need to clean the drum and wipe the rubber near the door.

Such simple manipulations will save you from unpleasant odors and other problems.

If you always leave the machine door open, the risk that it will start to sag increases.

Eventually the lock will fail, which will lead to leaks.
