This product is the equivalent of putting perfume on your sweaty body instead of taking a shower.

Affresh is a pleasant product, but it might not do what you hope.

I noticed a damp basement / old person smell in our front loading clothes washer. Affresh sounded like a great product to take that lovely smell away. The instructions are pretty simple, toss one tablet in an empty washer, and run a normal cycle with hot water setting. If the smell isn’t gone, or the washer is has mold or mildew, repeat two more times.

The results are mixed. The first tablet made the washer smell a bit better, but those old folks were still in there. Since I had my head in the washer smelling around, I decided to study the rubber door seal. Oh, I found the culprit, a big beautiful old colony of black mold growing on the seal.

So a toothbrush, some other chemicals, and another tablet later; the old folks were mostly evicted. I’m guessing that third tablet might lower the smell level a bit. However, I’ve decided to call in the professionals, or some DIY, and replace the door seal. Until you remove those old black mold / mildew folks, their smell will remain.

I think this is a good product. The tablets do smell very nice – a subtle clean odor, not perfumy. If your washer has a mold build up in a door seal, then it will likely not fix that problem. The old folks will not move out to the retirement community because of these tablets.

I am excited to try the dishwasher / garbage disposal product, Whirlpool W10282479 Affresh Dishwasher and Disposal Cleaner.

Now don’t get me wrong, this is a great product for older washers. But, after I purchased then read the washer manual COMPLETELY, I realized that the newer washers, again I don’t know when they introduceed this, have a cycle for disinfecting the washer itself. I didn’t NEED to purchase REFRESH. I used it it but in all actuality this tablet is for older models. So don’t just jump out and buy the tablets unless you’ve reviewed your washer capabilities/features completely.

Gee, these tablets are not magic for people that let their machines get so bad they stink, they are PREVENTATIVE measures. You put one in every month and you NEVER HAVE A PROBLEM!!!! Geez folks, I admit that bleach might so the same thing but I have used these religiously since I got the washer (since the manufacturer recommended it) and I have never had a problem with my washer smelling bad in 2+ years (wonder why??). People never cease to amaze me when they rate something with 1 Star when it’s their own lack of understanding of what a product really is and not a shortcoming of the product. I am intrigued by the Borax solution though since my past uses of that product indicate it might actually do the trick. Bottom line is these are NOT MAGIC they are to be used every month and you will never have a problem.
