- Don't use bleach for cleaning the tub. Use dishwasher fluid instead. That gets rid of oil, which bleach doesn't do. Run the machine in "Hot Wash"/Cotton mode. You only have to do it every 2-3 months.
- Hair tends to accumulate at the bottom of the glass door. You must clean off the hair, or it will eventually cause a door leak.
- When using detergent, use half of the "1" line on the Tide cup. The machine is a small machine, and using too much detergent would eventually destroy the machine. A 96 load version of the Tide bottle will last 1-2 years.

Does it also have a little door at the bottom to clean the filter?? Some makes do, and some don't.

My elders have also told me that about detergent: manufacturers tend to set a higher limit, so if your clothes are not very dirty, etc. you can actually get away with a lot less, and feel more ecological for doing so!
Yes, there's a door at the bottom, and I do clean the filter, but it never gets very dirty.
Also you can use a lot less toothpaste and soap than commercials want to make you believe. A 1/2cm length toothpaste is more than enough fluoride and polisher for your mouth. You only need a pinch of shampoo to clean your scalp. Say no to excessive usage!
Fun fact: HE laundry detergent is made by diluting normal detergent.
