The washing machine belongs to the category of standard household appliances that work without fail.
We use it every day, but we don’t always manage to achieve results.
It is especially unpleasant when things start to smell even after thorough washing.
It turns out that there is a certain category of mistakes that are not recommended to be made in the process.
What Causes Bad Smell in Washing Machine
Here are some reasons.
- Wet items remain in the machine for a long time. This can lead to the formation of mold, which is the cause of the unpleasant smell.
- There are too many items in the drum. It is recommended that the drum be filled to a maximum of 80%.
- Ignoring the instructions. Some items require a separate mode depending on the type of fabric.
- It is also very important to remove all foreign objects from the washing machine, such as buttons or headphones.
