Washing Machine that doesn’t make clothes smell recs!

[macaroni234]

Washing machine is broken and needs replacing and we need to buy a new one. We’ve always had a problem with this one - Bosch making clothes musty. Previous Bosch was fine. We’ve tried everything. Washing hotter, hot cleaning cycles, citric acid, vinegar, different cleaning detergent etc

If you have a machine that gives you nice fresh clothes please recommend. Even if it’s on the pricey side. In an ideal world it would be around £500 though which a replacement for ours would be.

Use powder - never liquid. Do a boil wash once a week.

It's definitely the liquid detergent. I use liquid for clothes and powder for everything else. Occasional high temp wash. Use one for your daughter that she's ok with and a different one for everything else. That said it's a misnomer that people with skin problems can't use bio - in some countries they don't have non bio at all. It's about finding one that works.

I would hazard a guess that it'd due to always using non bio. You need enzymes to clean.

I'm in another country and we don't even get non bio so all washing powder is automatically biological. Myself and my dd also have excema and I don't use anything different to wash with. If I ever see soap build up, I will always do an extra rinse.

The fact your other machine also smelt is the clue that it's your method over the machine at fault.
