👚 Why Mind the Machine? 👚
Constant use of the washing machine can lead to accumulated grime, affecting its performance and longevity. So, the frequency of cleaning really hinges on how often it’s used. Weekly users might find a monthly deep-clean helpful, while more avid users might aim for a bi-weekly refresh.
💡 Vibrant Vinegar Tips: Keeping it Fresh 💡
Wash Away the Wear:
Begin by removing and cleaning all detachable parts like detergent trays and filters, ensuring all the tiny hidden spots are debris-free.
Utilize a sponge to scrub the components, and shine them up with a cloth dipped in white vinegar.
Vinegar for Victory:
For the machine’s interior, run a standard cycle with a generous pour of white vinegar in the detergent compartment, ensuring it runs its full course without laundry.
Alternatively, halt the cycle halfway, adding a mix of baking soda and water for a deeper cleanse, and then resume.
Face-Time with the Machine:
Keeping the exterior stain-free and vibrant is key for that new-machine feel.
Wipe the entirety with a mix of white vinegar and water, letting it sit for around 10 minutes before wiping it down with a dry cloth.
