    are you referring to the smell on you or your husband, or on the clothes since you mentioned the old washer? i used to have problem with the lingering smell even on freshly laundered dri-fit type material. that was decade ago, went back to cotton. problem solved. plus no chaffing problem, ala axelsen if you know what i mean - you probably dont since men usually have direct contact with the material...

    To test the theory, try a laundrette. And chat with the person that runs the laundrette. They are experts.

    Also maybe clothes need to dry properly , getting some air.

    Laundry detergent is very powerful even on cold wash.

    Use 100% cotton material. Will help to a great extent.

    I think adding some white vinegar into your load will help get rid of the smell

    Since your washer obviously isn't working, you'll need to go out and get a new one. Perhaps the reason your clothing remain smell after being cleaned is due to a malfunctioning component in your washing machine.

    Fix it can do so. However, in my opinion, it is not a good investment. Nowadays, you can get washers from reputable manufacturers like LG and Samsung that are both cheap and feature-rich.

    Tht's right, choosing the new washer would be a good choice.. But for me, i think if the person is active, its better to have Panasonic washer at home.

    I was wondering what made you recommend the Panasonic brand. So, what are the advantages, exactly? bcs washing machines from Panasonic tend to be somewhat costly.

    A definition for "blue ag" would be appreciated. To put it simply, I don't get it; could you please elaborate?

    Can you tell me why you think I should get a Panasonic? Does Panasonic have any unique characteristics? Because I need a washer that washes quickly and efficiently while still being kind to the environment.

    The built-in function of the washer suits with how we are so affected with so many viruses and illness.. They have blue ag to help vanish 99.9% bacteria. Not only that, it has stainmaster that can help u remove all dirts such as coffee, lipstick and oil.. So no need to use bleach anymore! ;)

    Blue AG is a built in function.. The purpose is to help remove all bacterias even more. So u can use ur clothes without worrying if its wash thoroughly or not :D

    I think the activefoam is attractive as well. U dont need to pour as much or if u dont know how to measure the right detergent, it can help u creates more bubbles to wash your clothes deeper

    Oh my goodness, I didn't know that! However, I would want to know who manufacturer produces products with this blue ag feature. due to the fact that I find this function intriguing :D
