Smelly washing machine

My candy washing machines smells of rotten water, a really strong musky, modly smell. I've had a plumber out to service it, he has said he cant find anything wrong with it. I've tried washing with vinegar, crystal salts and even bleach on a 90degrees spin, still the smell continues. Please has anyone any solution to this!

    I have the exact same problem, I wonder if its something to do with the drying part of the machine. It doesn't matter what you run through the machine the smell just doesn't go away

    very powerful smell, does not come out of clothes with airing, happens on every wash. Smell would remind you of strong pipe tobacco or over-heated plastics, perhaps. machine cannot be used , the smell is so strong, and the room stinks from it too.

I have the same problem.I have cleaned it, bleached it put chemicals in it and still the same, My candy washing machine is just over a year old.

The problem is cheap nasty Chinese rubbish. Most brands such as Hotpoint, Hoover, Zanussi are now all owned by the Chinese. I eventually upgraded to a Samsung. You need to go for anything that is not Chinese rubbish.

I had that. Eventually found a dead mouse in the door seal. Sorry but it's true.
