7 Unexpected Things You Can Clean in the Washer

When we think of washing machines, clothes usually come to mind—but your washer can handle more than just laundry. Many everyday items quietly collect dirt, oils, and bacteria, and washing them regularly can save time and keep your home fresh.

  1. Oven Gloves & DishclothsKitchen fabrics like oven gloves and dishcloths can trap food and bacteria. Wash them weekly at 60°C with baking soda to remove odors and germs.
  2. Microfiber Mops & ClothsCleaning tools like microfiber mops lose effectiveness when dirty. Wash them at 60°C, avoiding fabric softeners to maintain their cleaning power.
  3. Canvas & Tote BagsReusable canvas bags collect crumbs and stains. Wash them inside a pillowcase on a gentle cycle at 30-40°C and air-dry for best results
