We have two front load washers. The one in Michigan is about five years old and the one in The Villages is almost 2 years old. We bought the front loaders with the pedestals for two reasons: Mom has two artificial hips and its easier for her to just reach in and I am short and could barely reach the bottom to take out clothes in a top load washer!!

We noticed some of our clothes in the Michigan washer were getting a yellowish tinge.

We now use the Tide Washing Machine Cleaner about once a month. We also leave the door open for a few hours and I periodically wipe down the rubber seal with an old cloth.

It says on the box if you have an odor that you should use 1 pouch weekly for two consecutive weeks and after that monthly for maintenance. That is what we did and, so far, it has worked for us.
