I have a front loading HE LG washer. Friends that have the same washer have had severe problems with odor. I have never had that problem. These washers seal tightly with the door closed and if not opened or used daily they build up odors from bacteria thriving in the warm moist environment. The answer is to always leave the door wide open this allows air circulation and helps to allow the interior to dry between loads. Give your washer a deep clean with either an empty load with clorox or with a product designed to clean the machine. Then you can maintain it by keeping the door open (not ajar)
