Indesit WE12 Evolution 1200 bad smell

[sarah33]

Can anyone help please? My machine has a really bad smell coming from the drum. I have cleaned out the filter on the front (there was a coin there) and have washed on two hot cycles (one with vinegar, the other with soda crystals) and it still smells! I also don't think it is washing very well (the whites don't seem as white?)

Any comments gratefully appreciated. My washing bin is overflowing as I don't want to use it!

can take 4 or 5 goes on the hottest wash 95' cotton usually does it

vinegar & a lid full of bleach seems to be the consensus

Check your waste hose/pipe as well that will also clog up with bacteria
