Disclosed herein are a washing machine and a control method thereof that is capable of supplying condensed water generated while laundry is dried to a steam generating unit (50) to generate steam, thereby minimizing formation of scale in the steam generating unit (50). The washing machine includes a drying unit (30) having a heat exchanger (35) to dehumidify air in a washing tub (11), a steam generating unit (50) to supply steam to the washing tub (11), a condensed water tank (60) to collect condensed water from the heat exchanger (35), and a steam-purpose water supplying unit (20) to supply the water from the condensed water tank (60) to the steam generating unit (50). |
