I Finally Learned How to Use the Detergent Drawer Correctly — and It Completely Changed My Laundry

Your washing machine handles some of your most-used items — clothes, bedding, towels — yet it’s easy to forget that it needs care too. Keeping the detergent drawer clean not only improves your laundry results but also extends the life of your appliance.

So, if your clothes haven’t been looking or smelling as fresh as they should, don’t rush to buy new detergent or blame the machine. Open that drawer, give it a good clean, and see what a difference it makes.

It’s one of those small household lessons that changes everything once you know it — the kind that makes you wonder how you ever got by without it.
