Cool! This guy changed how I use my dishwasher.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 7 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Made me remember that my dishwasher's detergent door opens when you close the thing, and not during a specific cycle. 😬

How even?! That defeats the purpose entirely!

I guess it prevents it from being yeeted out entirely as you're closing the door? 🤷‍♂️

But, like... If it wasnt there, I'd just chuck it into the thing or maybe put it in the utensil thingy.

This is what we do ever since the dispenser door stopped opening properly. Made no difference at all.

Mine doesn't even have a detergent door, just a divot to fill with powder before closing. It's one of those countertop ones though, so I guess the available space and complexity was a bit limited.

[–] halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It probably doesn't have a prewash at all. That's the only reason the door is needed, to prevent the detergent from being used before the actual wash stage.

Instructions unclear. Removed dishwasher door. Dishwasher is now attempting to wash entire kitchen. Please advise.

He didn't change how I do, but only because I saw the video before I got a dishwasher and thus never used it wrong.
