I’ve been using Affresh Washing Machine Cleaner every month for routine maintenance, and it does a solid job keeping my washer fresh. The tablets are easy to use—just toss one into the drum and run a hot water cycle. After each use, I notice a subtle clean scent, and it helps prevent musty odors from building up. That said, if your washer already has a strong mildew smell or visible residue, this won’t magically deep-clean it in one go. I had to do a few back-to-back cycles and wipe down the rubber seal to fully remove any lingering buildup. It’s more of a preventative cleaner rather than a heavy-duty solution. For the price, it’s a convenient way to maintain your washer without much effort. Just don’t expect it to replace manual scrubbing if your machine is already in rough shape. ✅ Pros: Easy to use, no scrubbing required Leaves a mild fresh scent Helps with routine maintenance ❌ Cons: Doesn’t remove stubborn buildup in one use Works best as a preventative, not a deep cleaner I’ll keep using it monthly to prevent any issues, but if you need a serious deep clean, you might have to pair it with manual cleaning.

I have a HE top loader that is ~ 3 years old and I have middle of the road water quality. Using Affresh about once a month has kept my wash tub looking like new. There isn't any smell or anything. it's simple, cost effective and just works. I'll keep buying it and using it.

I read all of the reviews and watched a few videos regarding this product. My main take aways were that this product got rid of the pungent odors and drum residue (which people cant see) in regards to the positives. The negative reviews stated a strong scent, residue in the drum, and didn't work at all. I have a Frigidaire Affinity HE Front Load Washer purchased in 2009, used liquid detergent for first 3 years then Tide pods for the the past 7+. My washer did NOT exhibit any of the really bad odors people have reported about their own. I don't use my washer every day, maybe 5 times a week at most. Three being a load of clothing and two being hot washes with towels. Usual routine is one of each per day with a clothing wash on the side. I leave my door open when not in use and try transfer the wash ASAP after the cycle ends. I just wanted to try this since I use the Tide Front Washer packets prior with no issues with residue or irritation. Mainly bought this due to the removing scum and residue from the drum that we can't see. I like finding and trying different alternatives. I opened the single usage tablet and placed it into the drum as directed. Be careful to open the individual package slowly as the loose powder will go airborne if opened quickly. I'd recommend using a scissor to cut open the packet INSIDE of the drum to prevent the loose particles from falling onto the floor or inhaled. I do not have a "clean cycle" on my washer so I just ran a full hot load wash. After it finished, i looked in the drum and saw a slight film of residue on the gasket and all over the drum. It was easily wiped off with a few paper towels. There was still a little residue left so I took 2 large bath towels and ran a hot wash again, using the towels to try and get rid of the remaining residue. After that was completed, I looked inside again and saw almost no residue, just a slight bit on the back end of the drum (which faces you). I'm a paranoid individual when it comes to my family's health so when I do see them, I'd hate for them to experience any of the rash or irritation that was reported in other reviews. I decided to run a casual cold wash to just put water in the drum and get rid of the remaining (if any) residue. I just washed an old shirt on warm water with 2 dish towels that I just used to dry my hands for the past 2 days, no dishes or food contact. I'll wear the shirt and see if any irritation arises. IF IT DOES, I'll update and state what happened. If not, then its good! Prior to running each cycle after the first, I literally stuck my head into the washer and tried to smell any scent or odors. I did not smell anything, I asked my child who I think has a pretty good nose, and said there was no smell or scent. Maybe it has to do with water quality, the amount of washes after initial tablet use, or wash cycle time. I personally did not remove my drum or washer housing to inspect it, so I can not comment on how clean or the amount of drum residue was removed. Works as describes, even though my washer did not have a bad odor and I physically can't see the underside of my washer drum. Will continue to use the rest of the package (6 total tablets) and reduce the number or cycles after initial run until I get to just the initial wash in hopes of no rash or skin irritation. Another key bit of info regarding the mold in the rubber gasket. I read a few articles stating that it removed or helped with mold issues. As far as I can tell it DOES NOT and no where do they state on their product information that it does anything with mold. This would be another product or project to combat and prevent mold from building up.
