	Try bunging your manky drawers in the dishwasher for maximum gunk removal. Dee x

	mostly its fabric conditioner that makes the gunk. Also causes the pong eventually from the machine as it doesn't fully clear all the pipes. have a friend who is a washing machine engineer and he says fabric softener causes all sorts of problems especially the concentrated one,he thinks its better not to use it ,but we are in a hard water area and altho we have a water softener i still prefer the extra softened clothes Shirley

	You can take the whole drawer out - well I can on my Bosch. I wash it up once a month - but to be honest dont get much gunk. I link its because I use liquid?
