The front door seal of our LG front loading WM227HW smells from a build up of mold and mildew. We keep the doo open when not in use but this is not enough to prevent the problem
Thanks.

The issue is folks using either none HE soap or just plain too much.
When we started using less soap and always double checked thar the soap we are buying is HE, the issue went away.
Leaving the door ajar will help, however what is needed is to kill the growth by cleaning the gasket with strong disinfectant or best bleach. Then always use the minimum amount of soap.
The huge misnomer of most folks is that washers must suds to clean. Clothes wahing soap should NOT create lots of suds. You don't need any sudsing to get your clothes clean.
Barb,
This is a problem with all front loaders. We have used those cleaning tablets in a regular hot cycle per the directions on the box. You can also try placing 1 cup of crystal dishwashing detergent in the tub and fill the soap dispenser with bleach and run a quick cycle full hot.
