The fixes don't really work. People tell themselves they do in order to justify bad purchases. There are scam companies selling fans to dry up the machines. No good. People say to leave the doors open. No good. I've used bleach, iodine, and God knows what else. You can reduce the stench a little, but you can't end it, because you can't get chemicals to the places where the filth grows.
It's very obvious here in Florida. A little heat, burning sun, and humidity, and the stink of the mildew comes to life. The clothes may smell okay when they come out of the dryer, and you might make it through a cool day, but as soon as you sweat, you reek like a boys' locker room on a Monday morning in August.
These machines have convoluted gaskets that grow tons of mildew where it's hard to remove. Stale water sits in hidden places while the machines are idle, growing every imaginable thing.
They don't even get clothes clean, because they use so little water. Sure, they get stains out. By spreading out the filth over a large area. It's like washing dirty underwear in a cereal bowl. Maybe you can't see the filth, but you're wearing it, along with the rest of the family's.
I can't tell you how wonderful it is to have a real washing machine again. I love this thing. I spent about a grand, which is a lot, but it doesn't get mildew, it uses lots of water, and the filth goes to the septic tank, not back on my clothes. The electronics are primitive, so I don't have to worry about throwing out the machine because the internal computer has been discontinued.
Until the extremist machines came out, I had never heard of anyone complaining that a washing machine didn't do a good job. It was just assumed they would work, because they did. Now there are class actions over washing machines.
