A washing machine includes: a cabinet; a tub; a pump case provided so as to drain washing water; a pump filter that filters foreign substances in washing water and is able to be detached from the pump case; and a pump filter head that is combined with one side of the pump filter and causes the pump filter to rotate, wherein the pump filter head includes: a first head having a first state in which the first head is engaged with one side of the pump case and is combined with the pump case and a second state in which the first head is released from the pump case; and a second head that is positioned at front of the first head and is rotatable separately from the first head in the first state. A user can recognize whether the pump filter is fully fastened to the pump case.
