Cleaning enthusiasts were left astounded after a mum revealed a clever trick which enabled her to clean her washing machine drawer, leaving it looking brand new. The woman wasn’t aware that the drawer could be removed from the machine so it could be thoroughly cleaned and she was shocked at how dirty it had become.
Houseproud mum Faith managed to slide the drawer when she noticed she could push down one of the parts. This allowed her to get a good look at the drawer, which was looking rather dirty.
Faith began cleaning it using a combination of warm water with washing up liquid, a toothbrush and a cloth. She was able to get her washing machine drawer sparkling clean once more after “a lot of scrubbing”. Fellow cleaning enthusiasts have been very impressed with the satisfying results, The Mirror reports.

Taking to the Facebook group Cleaning tips and tricks with before and after pictures of her drawer, an incredulous Faith wrote: "How on earth did I not know this drawer came out?! I’m not officially an adult and love cleaning haha! Thank you everyone for your cleaning tips and tricks".
Many other members were similarly amazed by the apparently little-known hack, having also had no idea whatsoever that the drawer could be removed and scrubbed separately in this way.
One astounded woman wrote: "They say you learn something every day. Well, today I learned this thank you" Another gasped: "I not know of this trickery either!"
Offering help to those who weren't sure how to get their own drawers to budge, various members who've tried this hack before advised to press down in the middle of the drawer, right where the fabric softener is poured, before giving it a gentle pull. We'll definitely be giving this a go for ourselves!
