My Washing Machine is smelly and my clothes don't smell fresh at all. What do I do? Get another?

Do you do a maintenance wash on your machine? If you live in a hard water area, the detergent gets trapped in the drum and needs washing out occasionally, so do a 90 degree wash with nothing in it but white vinegar (a good descaler) maybe once a month, that should make a difference to all your washing. (copied from a post by MrsWaggsnapps on another thread)

Should hopefully sort your problem out!

I just bung it on a 91 degees wash with nothing in except bleach, then an extra rinse.
