        OK, not bunny related, but me and Olly are the sad owners of a washing machine that is making the washing smell really bad, so bad if you were to walk in through the front door the smell would hit you if I was taking the washing out, its like rotten eggs.

        Have you had this unpleasant experience? How did you sort it out? 

        Its not the nicest smell in the world

          It might be a build-up of gunk either in the gum piece that goes around the tumbler or inside the tumbler. There should be products to clean it, but if the smell persists it’s better to call a technician that can open her up and see where the smelly stuff is at!

            Definitely get it looked at. It’s hard to say where it can be coming from within the machine and sometimes it is calcium or mold build up that has been hanging around deep in the pipes and washer drain. You can buy specific cleaners or try using white vinegar. For top-loaders you can add 1-2 cups and for a front-loader just fill the bleach drawer to the fill line. Set your machine to it’s hottest setting with an extra rinse. If it doesn’t help, a tech may be your only option.

              Also the drain could be the problem, we had an issue with our machine a few years ago smelling strange we tried all sorts of products and nothing helped till someone told me to put drain unblocker down the kitchen sink (where the machine was connected to the same pipe) it absolutely stunk while it was working but once it was rinsed away we never had the issue again so every so often I just buy that and put it down the sink and its never been a problem since

                Good news, its sorted, it was the filter at the bottom of the machine, I opened it up and…Brown thick smelly water came out like black coffee jelly (Jello) so I cleaned it out with bleach and it smelt bad, at least its sorted now, my washing smells like its been done and not like its been dragged through the local sewers.
