Glisten Washing Machine Cleaner, Helps Remove Odor, Buildup, and Limescale, Fresh Scent, Made in the USA, 12 Ounce BottleU.S. EPA Safer Choice

From what I can tell product seems good. I like that it's liquid - it's the only one, all the other brands are powder. I like that it does not have any strong chemical smell and instead just fresh and clean. As far as keeping the inner workings of the machine clean, who knows? But it's better than not cleaning it all!

Every once in awhile, my washing machine stinks...BIG TIME. A very foul, rotten egg-ish scent. As soon as I get a whiff of the dreaded odor, I immediately pour white vinegar in the machine, turn the water setting to HOT and run a wash cycle (no clothing in the machine) to clean it. Recently, I had to do this twice in one week and doing so still didn't get rid of the odor. This is NOT normal; usually a vinegar wash does the trick. Not this time. I did try the washing machine cleaning tablets a few years ago and wasn't super impressed with the results. I got better results with my vinegar wash. Since it didn't work this time, I did a search for a new cleaner for the washer. I decided to go with a liquid this time rather than a tablet and settled on Glisten washer cleaner thanks to the low price and the high rating from other users. 2 bottles come in a pack, each 12oz. (they arrived a day early!) Per the instructions, I used 1/2 cup of the cleaner along with the HOT water setting on the machine and ran the washer through a regular wash cycle. (no clothing in the machine) After one normal wash cycle, the scent was GONE entirely and has not returned! I am SO relieved! I keep my washing machine pretty clean though it had light soap scum build up inside so I used a bit of Glisten on a cloth, wiped over the scum and off it came, just like that. I was so impressed, I mentioned Glisten to my sister. She does NOT keep her washing machine clean. I wound up taking a bottle to her house and letting her use it to clean her washing machine. The results speak for themselves. Glisten did an impressive job cleaning her machine. (she didn't run a cycle using Glisten, she poured Glisten on a rag and cleaned out the interior of her machine)I'll be using Glisten monthly as directed to keep the funky, foul odor away. It worked for me with ONE use and the price can't be beat. It worked a miracle on my sister's machine as well! RECOMMENDED!photos: before/after using Glisten on my sister's washing machine

This product works well on initial application, and we've decided to use it on a regular basis to prevent buildup in the future.According to official safety documents, the main ingredient in the stuff is citric acid. I found out because it's important to avoid bleach (sodium hypochlorite) because it's not good for rubber gaskets and seals. This product has no bleach.Just saw a television feature on how mold and mildew problems are chronic with front-load washers, and our Bosch is no exception. I already have replaced the rubber gasket between the tub and the door after black mildew covered the visible surface and the backside as well.Vowed to take steps to avoid prolonged moisture on the new gasket but started to see another build-up even after leaving the door open, drying the drain hole area, and other measures when not in use.Before we even saw the TV story, I had researched and found this product among many. I considered customer reviews more than the seller's descriptions to decide which one.This 2-pack for $12 is a better deal than the $9 single 24-ounce jug also offered on Amazon. (12 treatments/$1 each, versus 6 treatments/$1.50 each) The small containers are also easier to store on the shelves in the laundry room.The product does not leave a significant smell in the washer.Wondering out loud -- for all the energy and water conservation the front loaders supposedly offer, are those savings cancelled out by having to buy products like this to fix a design problem that aggravates mildew? Manufacturers take note.

My bladeless washing machine developed a terrible odor and was leaving bits of grunge on the clothes after a year of use. The appliance repair tech said it was a build-up of dirt and soap on the outside of the tub, and recommended this cleaner. With the help of online videos, Reddit threads, and a borrowed machine to loosen some bolts we were finally able to remove the tub and clean it thoroughly. Hoping regular use of this cleaner will prevent the problem from recurring.

I got this for my parents washer it is an older front end loader that they have had since 1992. My parents are in their early 90's and I have talked to my dad about getting something to help with the smell and the mold around the seal. I have known about this product before, because when I had a front end loader washer I would use it.Let's just say this product made that old washer shine on the inside. Got the mold off with a little rubbing and it drains so much better. Plus the smell is gone. My parents could not believe how much better it looks on the inside.My parents are happy with the outcome of their washer getting clean and my dad is happy about the price in which he paid for it. One bottle can run for three months, which I think is not bad.I would recommend this product. Thank you, Amazon for having this product.

I have used this brand for my dishwasher several times and it is amazing. It works great with the stains left by well water. I expected this to work in my washing machine the same way but it didn't remove a single bit of the stain. I had to use a miracle eraser with the liquid on it before it would work at all. I'm sorry I ordered two bottles and won't order again because it's too much work. I could use any cleaner and get the same results.

Easy to use and leaves your machine clean without any residue and harsh fumes. Good value for your money!
