[Nucky]

From what I understand the odor was from residual soap and moisture around the gasket on the door. The fix for a front loader I had about seven years ago was to wipe the gasket, leave the door open slightly and run a giant size pill on its own cycle once a month. It worked but it was a hassle. The new Samsung front loader washer is just great so far...it's early and it spins the clothes so dry it cuts the time in the dryer by a whole lot. Good luck.

The Samsung Rebate is because of what I would label a major flaw and instead of explaining try YouTube Samsung Top Load Washer. That should explain everything.
