There are 4 reasons for washing machine odor and stinky towels.

1. The main cause of front load or top load stink is the overuse of detergents.  Generally, we’re only removing sweat and perfume from our clothing so it’s necessary to use very minimal amounts.  This is especially important if using liquid detergent or if there is a water softener in the home.  With a water softener present use less than 1 tablespoon of detergent unless washing soiled dishrags, diapers,etc.  Municipally supplied water may be treated before it gets to your home.  The best way to know is to either have your water tested for hardness or test it yourself with test strips available at hardware or appliance parts stores.  Even without soft water using much less detergent is necessary.
2. Running a close second is fabric softener use.  We recommend switching to dryer sheets.  Keep in mind that dryer sheets can also be overused and cause towels to be less absorbent and to retain odor.  The sheets can be cut into halves or thirds and can even be reused.  Dryer balls are another option.  There is another article on this blog page discussing the merits and demerits of them.
