If the dishwasher does not wash the dishes, first wash the device thoroughly. Most of them have a ready-made program that you just need to turn on.

Are you still taking unwashed plates out of the dishwasher? You’re probably putting them together wrong

If, despite regular and thorough cleaning of the dishwasher, you still take out unwashed dishes, pay attention to how you put them inside. Always keep cutlery in a designated place – it can be a pull-out drawer at the very top or an additional basket, which should be placed in the lower drawer between the plates, saucers, frying pans, bowls and other pots placed there. Remember to place deep dishes at a slight angle and not to block them at the front, e.g. with a flat plate. Store mugs, glasses and bowls on the top drawer, upside down. Thanks to this, you can be sure that water and detergent will reach every nook and cranny.

How to place a cutting board in the dishwasher? This way nothing will block

While cups or plates usually pose no problems when it comes to properly arranging them in the dishwasher, a cutting board can be troublesome. Especially when it still has a long handle. To prevent it from getting in the way, put it in the lower compartment of the drawer, perpendicular to the plates. Don’t forget that only glass and plastic boards are dishwasher safe.
