Sian Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Avoid getting to the point of the grey sludge and simply wipe clean and dry after every wash - not rocket science Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike737 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Absolutely, but the hot, empty wash with Swarfega cleans the bits you can't get to Though you still need to do the soap drawer separately... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sian Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 I don't use the soap drawer I prefer tabs. My hand fits perfectly into the seal, very clean. I also have a very thin soft brush which I can get in their to assist anything that dares to stick. As it happens I tend to have a new machine every couple of years as it gets used a lot.

I was more meaning between the tub and the drum, pipe to pump, and pipe away from pump. Sadly it won't shift the wires from underwired bras that magically leave the bra and migrate to the pump, requiring a partial dismantling when it happens...

Brown Sauce Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Clothes go into the laundry basket, somehow enter the magically spinning machine and hay presto, they reappear folded in the cupboard!! I'm still trying to figure out how this happens!!! Bicarbonate of soda around the seal leave over night, and then a short cycle hot wash. Or buy a new one!
