To help with smell in the washer we keep the liquid soap tray open after we finish using it. And leave the lid open most of the time. It seems to keep humidity down and the smell went away almost instantly.
Yes, open the dishwasher when it's finished (like max 1h after)!
Works for me, and if I don't well I get the smell.
I think this is a great preventative step. I have a side load washer and dryer and I have to keep the washer door open between loads. Other people I know got a similar machine and never did. Those machines smell like mold and they wash their clothes in it still. Eww.
Meanwhile I've had mine for 10 years and it is still working great. We run the clean cycle when it tells us, but the preventative step of "letting the water evaporate so mold doesn't grow" is a great one.
