15 Mistakes That Can Shorten the Life of Your Dishwasher

ADVERTISEMENT

I really don’t know what I would do without my reliable dishwasher, which I’ve had for a long time. I’ve taken it with me to many house parties, including dinners, reunions, and even the rare craft beer tasting. Its dependability has greatly simplified life; all you have to do is fill it up, push a button, and it’s done! Effortlessly clean dishes. On the other hand, you risk accidentally reducing its lifetime if you don’t properly maintain it, just like any treasured equipment. Plus, a brand new one isn’t exactly inexpensive, is it?

My dishwasher would have lasted a lot longer if I hadn’t made a few blunders throughout the years. Ignorance is bliss when it pertains to appliance maintenance; I didn’t realize about some of them until it was almost too late.

So, here are fifteen things you may be doing that are reducing the dishwasher’s lifespan that you aren’t even aware of, coming from an amateur cook:

I used to think I was a packing genius when I first got a dishwasher, and I subsequently learned that I was wrong. No more loads of dishes, would there? That is incorrect. Dishwashers aren’t effective cleaners and may damage motors if they’re overloaded. Having to hand-wash half of the load because it wasn’t clean was a lesson I had to learn the hard way.
I used to give the dishes a good rinsing until they were almost clean before putting them in the dishwasher. I should have known better. Detecting food particles and adjusting the cycle appropriately is a feature of modern dishwashers. The machine won’t function to its full potential if you rinse it first.
