The dishwasher is one of the electrical appliances that we have in almost all of our homes and is a real secret weapon that helps us a lot every day. In fact, it’s nice to put the things that need to be washed in the dishwasher and run it and expect it to do all the work for us. Many people think it’s an easy appliance to use, but you should always be a little careful because it doesn’t take much to mess up the dishwasher and cause a lot of trouble. Let’s see what these mistakes are, you better find out before you get into irreparable trouble.
Although not everyone knows this, not all items in your kitchen can go in the dishwasher. On the other hand, many people also don’t know that there are many objects that are dishwasher safe and incredibly unsuspecting. There are mistakes many people make with this device that they don’t even know what they’re doing. Specifically, many people tend to put objects in the dishwasher that cannot be washed at all. There are many reasons for this, for example, some things cannot be washed at high temperatures, such as very thin plastic containers.
Wood utensils should also never be put in the dishwasher because of aggressive detergents that penetrate such materials and thus degrade and contaminate the wood. Even the moka pot in which you make coffee cannot be washed in the dishwasher as it will absorb the detergent. The moka pot should only be washed with water (without detergent or other substances) as you risk damaging it and it will not make good coffee. If your mocha is no longer making coffee as well as it used to, it may have built up too much limescale. Here are some tricks to solving the situation.
In addition, delicate objects and glasses can never go into the dishwasher. In fact, thin glass is a very delicate material that needs very little breakage. The force of the water jet can shatter the glass or move the dishes, which can crash into the glass causing it to break. Residues can spoil the dishwasher, get into the pipes and clog the filter.
So please never put these parts in the dishwasher, otherwise you may seriously damage your belongings or the dishwasher itself.

But if we had a dishwasher, at least we would be freed from washing dishes and glass glasses by hand. However, What happens when we want to wash the glasses in the dishwasher? The upper compartment, where we normally put glasses and cups, is not high enough to put the glasses we put in the lower compartment, which is at risk of breakage.
However, there is a button on the side of the top bin that, when pressed, lowers the top bin a bit, leaving more height and allowing us to put glasses there. This hidden button is found on most dishwashers.
