A: Honestly, I don't feel they resolved the mold and mildew problem. I am constantly have wretched odors in my clothes and washer AFTER a wash has been completed. The washer is only five months old for me. I have now used five affresh drained the hose three times at the bottom of the washer cleaned the filter, I leave the door open after each wash, and I use HE laundry soap and make sure that there is not too much. My clothes continue to smell like mildew and just consistently get worse. Not to mention if I sweat just a little bit doing house chores or minimal yard work I smell like mildew . It's absolutely horrible. I have now had someone out to look at the washer since I have ran out of options. They said there is nothing they can do. So if you get this washer good luck.
