At the moment, I'm at the daughter's home in Atlanta. She has a Whirlpool front loader, and she said keeping the door open when the unit is idle minimizes mold growth, she does wipe the door gasket area regularly, otherwise she has no issues. A friend has mold issues, but I don't know what brand it is. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
