“I am hesitant to buy a front loader because of problems people have with mildew/mold. I had one once and would dry the seals on the door after every wash but this is a hassle. Does this washer have any technology or design to counter this problem?”

No, the washer does not have technology to counter act this effect. It is recommended to clean the gasket and door seal regularly and check under the door seal for small items when unloading the washer as well as cleaning the drainage pump filter regularly. ^Daphane
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.To my knowledge, the washer does not have a technology answer to the mold/mildew issue of front loaders. Our answer is to leave the door open halfway for 18-24 hours after washing. We have had 2 front loaders (both Maytags) for over 15 years and never had much mold/mildew. Cleaning once or twice a year was enough. Recently, when the last Maytag died, we went to an LG front loader due to the excellent ratings and reputation. So far, so good!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This one doesn't have the seals like the older ones did. I just bought this one, other than the noise of spinning, it is a lot easier to use than the one I had before.
