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.
A: Washing machines come in varying capacities given in cubic feet and the LG Front Loading Washers range from 2.3 cubic feet to the largest capacity at 5.8 cubic feet. Manufacturers use different labels to indicate capacities and LG uses labels like "Mega Capacity" to indicate the largest capacities of 5.2 cubic feet to 5.8 cubic feet and "Ultra Large" or "Large Capacity" to refer to Front Load Washers that have a capacity of 4.5 cubic feet. Washing Machine buying guides consider Front Load Washers with capacities of at least 3.8 cubic feet as being large enough to accommodate a King Size Comforter. Comforters come with a variety of filler material which will determine how fluffy the comforter is, but at 4.5 cubic feet, the ENERGY STAR® Most Efficient 2016 LG - 4.5 Cu. Ft. 12-Cycle Front-Loading Washer - White, Model # WM3670HWA will comfortably accommodate most King Size Comforters if not all...^IFV

Depending on how severe the mold and mildew is, you may need to run the tub clean cycle a few times.The door seals should be cleaned once a month to prevent the build-up of dirt in the door seal.
