Uproot Clean Washing Machine Cleaning Tablets Ultra 40% Stronger, 24 Pack

My laundry had started coming out of the washing machine with an unpleasant odor that I noticed as soon as I removed wet clothes, towels, or blankets. I was beginning to think it was time to replace the machine, but that just isn't in the budget. After doing some research online, I learned that detergent residue, grease, and grime can build up in parts of the washer you can't easily see. We live on a hobby farm and care for multiple dogs, cats, horses, sheep, goats, and a pet pig, and our 3 year old grandson also lives with us, so it's no exaggeration to say our washing machine handles a lot of heavily soiled laundry. I had occasionally used the washer's self-cleaning cycle, but it clearly wasn't enough to remove the hair and greasy buildup. After just one use of these tablets, the drum was sparkling clean. I'm sure the valves, pipes, and filter aren't completely clean after years of washing filthy farm laundry, and I did have to wipe away a fair amount of loosened grime from around the door seal. However, the bad smell is completely gone, and my clothes smell fresh again. It may be my imagination, but I think they look cleaner too. These Uproot cleaning tablets are incredibly easy to use and cost far less than repairing or replacing my washing machine. I plan to run another cleaning tablet through the washer next week before settling into a monthly maintenance routine. Based on my experience so far, these tablets really work for my front-load HE washer, and I appreciate that I don't have to worry about harming my septic system.

Didn’t realize how questionable my washing machine was until I tried these tablets. You know that faint “something is off but I can’t prove it” smell? Yeah, gone. These things go after pet odors like they’ve got a personal grudge, and somehow the whole machine ends up smelling fresh instead of like it’s hiding secrets. If you’ve got pets, this is one of those upgrades that will quietly make life better. What I found surprising is how much gunk they actually deal with. Apparently washers collect all kinds of buildup, soap leftovers, grime, mystery stuff, and these tablets just break it down without drama. It’s kind of like sending in a tiny cleaning crew that doesn’t complain or ask for snacks. The whole system, drum, hoses, all the hidden parts you never think about, they all get a reset in one cycle. They also help with pet hair, which is honestly impressive. Instead of your washer slowly turning into a fur storage unit, the enzymes help break that stuff down so it doesn’t clog everything up. It’s not magic, but it’s close enough that you’ll notice less buildup over time. Plus, keeping all that junk out of your machine probably means it sticks around longer, which is good because replacing appliances is about as fun as doing working on a weekend. Using it is so easy. just toss a tablet straight into the empty drum (not the detergent slot, that part matters), run a hot cycle, and you’re basically done. I tried it after a week of washing muddy dog towels, and the difference was weirdly satisfying. It felt like the washer went from “tired and slightly gross” to “ready for a fresh start,” like when you finally clean your house and suddenly feel like a new person for no reason.

My extra-capacity front loading washer was my dream laundry helper until buildup from my super-shedder Bernese Mountain Dog, Woola, and her silky-shedder, Sylvester, the "puddy-tat" caused the first of many error codes. When the drum smelled stale, we almost called a plumber. Thanks to YouTube, we fixed a horribly fur clogged, slimy filter by ourselves. Pulling out our enormous stacked washer/dryer combo damaged the flooring and, in reflection, was unsafe. Shortly after our expensive week-long DIY experience, I saw a video about Uproot Clean Washing Machine Tablets. The Affresh cycle on my washer wasn't effective, so I decided to give this new enzyme centered cleaner a test - I chose the product designed for pet households. I'm so glad I did! Nearly 18 months after the first treatment, am a dedicated Uproot user. After the initial intense cleaning cycles, I began using Uproot twice a month, as recommended. My washing machine smells clean at all times, the washer door and gasket don't get that filmy buildup, the stainless steel drum sparkles, and I haven't had another error code since changing to Uproot. Highly recommended!

Each series of photos shows before cleaning cycle, after but before wipe down and after wipe down. The dustpan pic is of the drain plug clean out and the rag is what I was able to easily wipe off of the gasket. It’s been a while since I had cleaned my washer with anything because nothing really worked and it was getting a funk so I thought I’d give these a try. They did seem to work better than other brands that I’ve tried. The little drain nozzle did have quite a bit of gunk come out. Nothing really in the filter itself. We also lost power for a few hours mid cycle so maybe it would have worked even better if went through a complete cycle all at once. I was worried about the scent that might be left behind because of family members with sensitivities but there isn’t much at all. It just smells fresh. Overall, I’m fairly satisfied with it. I’m going to try it again today just to see. It would have gotten 5 stars if the goop coming out of the drain looked like it does in the video but it just wasn’t that satisfying.

Instead see this in my top loading washer. Supper easy to use, just put the washer on normal and hot water on high load put the tablet in the barrel and let it run. I was very hesitant on whether or not it would work, but when I opened the lid, I no longer smelled the mildew dog smell from washing all the dog blankets and bedding and towels. I then washed our bedding and our towels and they smelled so much better and fresh so did our clothes. I will definitely be using this tablet again after I wash the dogs’ things again.

This stuff does the trick. My washer continually smelled musty. I used the other washer cleaner, bleach, vinegar, you name it and none of them worked. This is pricey, but was desperate to find something that worked. I threw the tablet in the washer and turned washer onto clean washer cycle. Came back when it was finished and pieces of black gunk was all in the tub and washer smelled fresh. I figured if the washer was that yucky, I'd do it again. I put another tablet in and ran clean cycle. There was more pieces of gunk in machine. This stuff really works. Go for it and try....you won't be sorry

To be honest, I went into this purchase with low expectations. My washer was starting to stink a bit after washes and it needed a good cleaning. I hadn’t cleaned it in probably 6 months and was using afresh before. I ran the first tablet and took out my pet hair filter, and it was still all gunked up (you can see the before picture) but I ran a cloth on the inside and did the clean cycle one more time and it came almost perfectly clean(see the after picture). I was able to wipe the remaining gunk out easily and my washer smells so much better! Definitely worth it.

Wife complained Affresh still left a bad smell behind. But this product cleaned up where Affresh left off. It really does work. The smell is gone. For now. Might change stars if it comes back in three days. But so far so good.
