Washing machine gunk help
I’ve just moved into a rental. After running a cycle there was black gunk at the bottom of the washing machine. So I took a look under the agitator and found a lot of nasty looking buildup and some rust.
Is this something that can be cleaned out to the point of being ok to use? Also makes me wonder what underneath the drum looks like. It’s a stacked washer dryer combo and looks like it’s all one unit, so I’m not able to take the dryer off to remove the drum.
I’ve tried running cycles with vinegar, bleach and baking soda (not at the same time!), also Affresh cleaning pods. None of that did much. Seems like it will need manual cleaning, but would like to know if that has a real possibility of solving the problem before I try cleaning out other people’s gunk.
Thanks!
