Default Odor question w/new topload Kenmore washer?


"bobmct" wrote in message
...
My daughter replaced her failing washer with a new Kenmore almost a
year ago. Although it works well she complains of an odor eminating
from it when not in use. Her old one never had that issue.

It was installed in exactly the same spot as the previous one using
the same water source and drain (although all the hoses are new).

My thought is that it might not be completely draining (BINGO) somewhere
'down
under' and after sitting a day or two perhaps the bacteria is doing it
(they are on well water).

Has anyone experienced this issue before and if so what, if anything,
was done to aleviate this issue?

Any/all ideas greatly appreciated.
