    Abstract: A washing machine of the present invention includes an electrolyzed water generating unit and a wash tub. The electrolyzed water generating unit includes an electrolytic solution supplying unit and an electrolysis unit including an electrolysis electrode pair. The electrolytic solution supplying unit is provided so as to supply an aqueous solution of an electrolyte for generating electrolyzed water to the electrolysis unit. The electrolyte for generating electrolyzed water contains an alkali metal chloride and a substance that makes an aqueous solution acidic. The electrolysis unit is provided so that the aqueous solution of the electrolyte for generating electrolyzed water is electrolyzed using the electrolysis electrode pair to generate an electrolyzed water. The electrolyzed water generating unit is provided so as to supply the electrolyzed water generated by the electrolysis unit to the wash tub. The electrolyzed water supplied to the wash tub by the electrolyzed water generating unit has a pH of more than 6.5 and less than 8.0.
