Abstract
A washing machine is disclosed. A water supply structure includes a water current guiding unit for supplying water, which is to be supplied into an inner tub after passing through a detergent dispenser, toward a wall side of the inner tub. Accordingly, when a rinsing operation is performed after spin-drying, water cannot be supplied to a central portion of the inner tub but be supplied to the wall side of the inner tub, so that although the laundry gathers on the wall of the inner tub, water can be sufficiently supplied to the laundry to effectively remove a remaining detergent from the laundry.
