Miele Informative - Mold And Mildew - Front Loading Washing Machine
Front Loading Washing Machine
GEORGIA -- I had a Miele front loading washing machine that developed a terrible mold and mildew problem in and around the gasket. The reason for the problem is that there is about 1/4 of water in the gasket after each cycle that cannot drain given the position of the drainage holes. To its credit, Miele replaced the machine but, since the machine is exactly the same, I anticipate that the problem will recur.
Miele tells me that I am their only customer with this problem so I'm wondering whether others have had a similar experience.

First of all, I would like to say that Miele sounds like a great company in that they replaced your washer. I have a front loader with the same problem. I noticed the water sitting in the gasket after a few uses and knew it could be a problem. So, now I dry the gasket, which is a hassle, and I also leave the door cracked just to be sure all the moisture dries out. They probably haven't worked all the bugs out yet. The washer saves water and energy, so I guess we can't (yet) have everything.
