Hello, I have just bought a brand new Hotpoint WD860P washer dryer - delivered yesterday. I was so excited to use it! My friend has a washer dryer and her clothes come out smelling lovely and fresh. After reading the instructions and setting a boil wash with no items in the drum to clean the machine as instructed I put some towels in. Once the wash and drying cycle had finished and I got the towels out they smelt disgusting - Like a horrible rubber smell. This morning I put my bedding in, set the dryer on low heat but the same thing happened. Now I know this is a new machine so it may just be the 'new' smell but my last Hotpoint washer dryer had exactly the same smell so I stopped using it. Can anyone offer any advice? Has this happened to anyone else? Will it just take time for the 'new' smell to wear off?
Here's hoping someone can help!
