What the best way to clean a washing machine?

I continually have to remove teh draw and scrub it clean and the inside of the draw, but how can i make sure the internals are free from the sludge that builds up? I set it on boil wash every month, but it still get clogged up.

Use tablets then the drawer doesn't get touched.

(I'm only answering the most boring thread in SW history because of your avatar, some how I don't think thats you in it though)

Use something like the Persil Pods that have got liquid in them... chuck a couple in with each wash - no mess, no dosing out scoops of whatever...

Soda crystals, 1 cup full in the draw on a hot wash with no pre wash :wink:
Do this once a month with no clothes or any other chemicals.
A service wash if you like.

Whoa whoa and i said whoa .... you wanna know what , to clean the who ..and got sludge on your where ??!! lolol

As i stereotypical male, i would like to draw your attention to the rules of man'nessness...

" we shall never, under any circumstances, know anyfink useful or helpful regarding domestic appliances of any kind...ANY KIND... So it is written, so it shall be done.

We shall always .. A) pay someone to rip us off regarding repairs of any domestic appliance, and blame the damage on any other life form available, the kids , the wife , the dog, a well meaning hamster with engineering qualifications etc etc ..or B) leave it alone until it finally breaks down and is moved to the rear of the property in the hope that some pikey will take it away.

..now then

to address the sludge issue ... bro, your in way too deep, it is not our place to know or question such sludge, but embrace the sludge and accept it for what it is for an easy life.

I feel that now the only course of action to be taken, is to shout random blokeness at you to keep you from delving even deeper into the darkness which is " Domestic appliance scientology " ...

" RUGBY .... PUNCH IN EAR ... STELLA ARTOIS.... BOXING... PORN... OILY ENGINE PARTS... STEAM ROLLERS... BRICKS & MORTAR... SCALECTRIX ... HORNBY... WAR... STEEL PROTECTED TOE CAPS... .. " am i getting through to you man ..am i ..c'mon someone check for a bloke-pulse .. we cant let this one go to the darkside..hes got so much to live for ... " PIKE ... CARP... MUD... CHEST HAIR....BACK HAIR...TRUCK DRIVERS ...

" please lord dont take him, hes young and has so much to learn ..
