front-loader washing machine

If you have a front loader, do small items like baby socks ever get stuck in the rubber piece up front?

My big brain suddenly realized I could use my mesh lingerie laundry bag for such items. Genius, I tell you. No more soaking wet gunky socks!

Just a tip!

  • Yep - annoying, right?  I use the mesh bags for socks and anything velcro like drool bibs or diaper covers that get stuck to other clothes.

    See, you're smarter than I am because you already thought of that.

    How do you clean out that deep crack/groove? It gets icky in there.

  • If I'm running towels or something like that, I'll use a towel to wipe it down before washing.  Otherwise, I don't really worry about it too much.  When I was losing hair like crazy the thing was filled with my hair all the time.  Ew.

    I keep cleaning rags in the laundry room and wipe the door and groove down after each load.

    This.  I keep one attached to the changing table and dirty socks go straight in.

    I also wipe the seal out occasionally with a cloth.

    Great idea!  We also use washer cleaner about once a month and leave the door cracked when we are not using it.
