Need a product that holds the door from going either inward or outward? Try the silicone "Prop and Stop" also being sold on . The Buddy washer door prop only holds the door from closing inward. Have you noticed that musty odor from your front load washer? The odor results from excess moisture inside the unit allowing the growth of mold and mildew. The "must" stops here! Everyone in the household will love using this whimsical character with his friendly smile to keep the door slightly open and help the inside dry properly. This soft foam, non-scratch door prop magnetically attaches to the washing machine's inside door frame to keep the door from closing. An open door allows for improved air circulation around the door frame and inside the machine. The magnet is strong enough to hold him in place but not so strong that it's difficult to use. It only takes a second to place him at a spot that keeps the door open to your liking (closer to the door hinge to keep the door out a little further). When not in use he easily stays out of the way by attaching to the front, top or side of the washer (any place it's metal). He's a simple, quick and easy to use solution that really works! PLEASE NOTE: This product does not prevent the washer door from swinging open on its own. Front load washer doors that swing open are often a result of an improperly leveled machine. ALSO OF NOTE: Washers with non-metallic door frames will not work with this product. Some washer frames are made of non-metallic stainless steel or plastic. We recommend testing your washer for compatibility with a refrigerator magnet prior to purchasing. If the product does not work for you for any reason we are happy to process a full refund.

This Man Changed My Life!
This little guy has forever changed my life! No more endless arguments with the family or the washer door to remain open when not in use. Feet are magnetized, but he is soft and squishy, so if the door gets bumped when he is doing his job, nothing breaks! #NoMoreSmell #MenCanBeUseful #IBetAWomanInventedThis

Adorable way to prop the washer door open!
We love our "fat policeman" as the kids call him (because they have no idea who the Maytag Repairman is). Yes, his face and any of the painted decorative features WILL COME OFF over time. Those elements are painted on with some sort of latex paint that will peel off of this squishy piece of foam. But, functionally, he's GREAT. The magnet inside has never come exposed, and does just what it's intended to do: his feet stick to the inside of the door frame, and he props the washer door open. It's adorable, easy to use, and I smile every time I pick him up.

So Cute and Functional
We were using a bungee cord to hold our washer door partly open. Then I found this cute guy. He reminds me of the Maytag repairman from the commercials. Funny because I just bought my first Maytag washer and dryer recently (after buying this). The only suggestion is to please add a magnet to the top of his head too. Our washer door wants to open a little more so we hot glued a magnet to his head and it magnetizes to a screw int he washer door. the washer is level according to our "level".

Love this little guy!
Works great! Just as described. uncomplicated, small , and inexpensive and depending on where you place it you can leave the door just a little bit open or up to half way open. Yeah he is a little buddy for sure!

Does the job
I always hated leaving my washer door open because of where my washing machine is situation. We often would hit the door causing it to swing hard hitting something else. But if we closed it, not tight, it would smell. This was a great solution! The little guy sticks pretty good, good enough anyway. I wish it had just a but more suction power then I would have given it all 5 stars. But even then, it sticks well enough to get the job done and will be recommending to others.

Great product & a great company!
I LOVE this little man. He does exactly what he is supposed to do ~he keeps the door propped open to allow air to circulate in the washing machine to prevent mildew. My laundry room opens into the garage so there is a lot of traffic through the room & the washer door was always getting closed. Not anymore! This is a great product!I had an issue with my first order & I could not be more pleased with how it was handled. The company was prompt, polite & had my new little man in the mail the next day along with a bonus. This company is awesome!

Awesome gift and useful!
My husband is always looking for a rope dog toy to use in the washer to hold it open. But if course, the dogs take off with it as often as they can.So when I saw this little guy I knew he would be a fun and useful gift for my husband!It works perfectly!Of course, it's useful for the whole family. But my husband is there most delighted.And when the washer is being used he stays magneted to the top of the washer.Buy one, you will love it!

Awesome product!
I purchased this because I needed a solution to keep our front-loading washing machine from growing mold. This has been the perfect solution! The magnet has been strong enough and it sticks to the top of the washing machine when we are running a load of laundry. I’m pleased with is product.
