5 Ways to Care for Your Washing Machine
With the busy lifestyle we have now, doing the laundry should be delegated and less of your priority. I know how hard it is to get a household helper, so an automatic washing machine should be a part of your household to do the laundry for you.
Having an automatic washing machine is one of the best investments you can have for your family.
Today, I will share with you some of the caring tips to help your machine last longer:
1. Use the right kind of detergent – there are many detergents nowadays that was made perfectly for automatic washing machine. Also, follow the enough amount of detergent for the specific function. Automatic washing machines use less water so a small amount of detergent would be enough for your clothes.
I would love to have this Panasonic ( NA-S106X1LPH ) 10.0kg/6kg Washer Dryer with Superior Fast Wash & Double Hygiene. It has this 49-minute active speed wash, perfect for busy moms. It also has its feature of less fading & shrinking of clothes.
2. Do not overload your machine – follow the instructions manual on your washing machine’s weight limit, do not overload it. Ours is 5 kilos only so that’s around 12-18 pieces of clothes per batch.
3. Do not close the cover after washing – let your machine breathe and by keeping the door or cover open after using it, you also help avoid mold formation on your machine by allowing the moisture to evaporate.
4. Clean regularly – clean the inside and outside parts of your machine, you can use a machine deep cleaning solution. Or you can use vinegar and baking soda combination for sanitizing it. Don’t forget to clean the detergent/softener holder as well as the rubber part.
Saving Tip: Using inverter type washing machine like Panasonic Top Load Inverter Washer help us save not just in water usage through their ECONAVI system but as well as energy consumption.
The Panasonic NA-F115X5 also has a superior wash performance with exceptional ease of use. It has the Active Foam System that quickly removes dirt and less undissolved detergent.
5. Check the machine’s hose – avoid bending the hose to help it last longer, and always check if its time for a replacement to avoid flooding that may cause rust on your machine’s lower part.
There you go mommies, the machine that helps us a lot in making our laundry time easy and hassle-free needs a little love and care too.
Hope these tips can help you in giving extra care to your washing machine.

These are nice reminder. I must agree I tend to overstuff our washing machine. Now, I really need to take care of it is truly difficult to wash clothes with hands.
I love my automatic washing machine and it is really important to take good care of it.. ang mahal kaya no! Thanks for these awesome tips, mare!
Thank you for the reminders. I do not keep the cover open after using it. I should do this next time. =)
Nice tips you got there mum. And sayang na-miss ko ang appliance sale. Grabe 70% off!
I do delegate doing laundry now. We send most of it to the laundry shop because we don’t have a laundry area, which means we can’t have a washing machine. But if we had one, I’d definitely choose a fully automatic one too.
Does it apply po for non-automatic? Yung do not close the cover after using kasi ginagawa ko yun. Thanks for this, now I know how to take care of it. #LevLevLev
I want that washing machine para dry na agad ang clothes hehe. Matagal ko na pinagiipunan ang front load na washing machine haha
Yes to not overloading. Nasira namin yung first washing machine namin because of this. Now, we’re more careful 🙂
Thanks for the tips, mommy! Ako gusto ko na rin magpalit ng washing machine, inaantay ko lang mag-retire itong old top load washing machine ko. Kaso umaandar pa eh, haha!
Thankyou for sharing this mommy levy.. Very imformative po. Lalo na si #2. Kaya siguro nasira washing machine nmin.. Naoverload.. Bumigay.. 🙁

I didn’t know that vinegar won’t do harm on our awm. Now that I know, I’ll use it na to wash my kid’s cloth diapers. Medyo hesitant ako kasi akala ko makakasira. Thank you sa tips! You’re the best.

HAHaha #2.. pag nagmamadali na hehe #LevLevLev
Oh my, I didn’t know na dapat you keep it open!
Thanks for these tips, ang galing.
The number 2 is what I need to always remember. Guilty of it. The main reason why our machines doesn’t stay that long 🙂 haha.
Great pointers and a good reminder that I need to clean our washing machine. Thanks a ton!
These tips are great! Thank you for sharing, I always either overload or forget to clean it. Like I just assume it’s clean because it clean my clothes? Always good to keep things clean and check it occasionally!
These are great tips!! Plus you reminded me it is time for me to clean the washer
These are great tips! I have been pretty good about leaving the door open, but not so much about cleaning it.
Great tips…sometime I forget about upkeep for my washing machine!
I just use a tub cleaner, but never thought about cleaning the dispensers! Thanks for the tip!
I thought this was super informative. Do you know how to use the vinegar and baking soda solution to clean the machine? I usually just put some vinegar in the soap slot, but I may try the other solution you recommended.
I’m going to research about that. I am not familiar with it
