How to remove odor from front loader washing machines?

My Kenmore front loader has a mildewy odor even though I leave the door open between washes.

Answer:

i also have a kenmore front loader washing machine. everytime i load my clothes i put a cup of baking soda together with the detergent i'm using. it takes away the odor of the clothes plus it cleans the washing machine. you may want to run a cycle of hot water baking soda without your load of clothes since it smells now. good luck.
Run the machine with arm and hammer backing soda and borax. That will do the trick
I have tried both bleach and baking soda and even used vinegar with a hot water wash. It seemed like it helped for awhile but the smell is back in mine also. I am going to research this and answer you again later.
Run your washer full of hot water with 1 cup of bleach through the whole cycle.
ordinary washing powders commonly produce extra suds than those designed for the front loaders. this extra suds ought to impair the performance of the front load device. you could finally end up with cleansing soap residue nonetheless on your outfits after the wash.
