How to clean your dishwasher filter

[@JarrettDaRaiderBoi]

That's why you're supposed to get the chunks off before throwing it in your dishwasher 🤦🏻

[@Ottophil]

Not according to my wife. You can put anything in there and it will magically turn it to liquid and make it disappear. I swear people think pipes are magic

[@lisahines8176]

I just read an article that says knock off loose articles but not rinse the dish bc it can cause excessive suds. No kidding.

[@marieevansrealtor1]

Yeah🎉 it’s dishwasher not garbage disposal. Had to tell teenage son several times.

[@doesnotFempute]

i rinse everything before going in the dishwasher (we do have a garbage disposal, and also septic so we need to be extra careful with grease). The dishwasher filter still needs to be cleaned, but probably doesn't get to this state quite as fast.

Thx for sharing. Most ppl don't even know that the dishwasher has a filter.

[@charcoalanderson8010]

You literally have my exact same model! Thanks for the info on how to take the coarse filter off. I didn't know you had to pull up. I just cleaned the fine filter by hand and I'm now running a bottle of dishwasher cleaner through it on the hottest setting. (I'll go back and scrub the coarse one after it's done.) As someone who's not used to living with a dishwasher having this thing now is such a privilege!

Happy to help!

[@doesnotFempute]

that jelly stuff isn't mold, but a byproduct of detergent and hard water compounds (iron, calcium etc) . Still don't want to eat it on my dishes though! lol

[@Goldenwoodz]

That thing was totally plugged! Sure as heck wasn’t getting enough pressure to clean anything that’s for sure. That’s why you have to really watch what goes into these newer style machines

[@MsAlly109]

Could've cleaned it better than that. You get an E for effort.

Thank you! Filter was🤢🤮 but couldn't get the big flat mesh part out. Thanks for posting! 🙇‍♀️

Glad it helped!

[@angelmac6808]

OMG! We moved into an apartment and I think it has never been cleaned🤢🤢. Thank you so much for sharing 😊

That's it? No Vinegar cicle and then Baking Soda cicle?

[@gradygilchrist4923]

Never knew it even has a filter lol

[@BStride]

Good video, that filter was looking rough

[@ladyrenea3130]

Next time clean the bottom with vinegar and baking soda before putting everything back in.

[@JeronimoStilton14]

You originally thought the filter for your device was on the door…? Why? It would have to be at the drain point of the dishwasher which would always be the bottom

[@erikaguirre7638]

Yooo! I could smell that through the screen, thanks for the tip.✌️

Tysm 🙏🏼🙏🏼

THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@robertwilson4274]

Thanks 😂

[@pqrstsma2011]

i'm not sure my dishwasher has a removable filter like that, i've looked, but didn't see it

[@Reviewedcom]

Sometimes it needs to be unscrewed!

[@doesnotFempute]

i have a Maytag that requires tools in order to get the filter out and clean it. If you can find the model number of your dishwasher, look for a video or Google for an instruction manual that should have instructions for cleaning the filter. ♥️

[@pqrstsma2011]

@@doesnotFempute I should probably speak with the apartment management before I start opening up the dishwasher with my tools

[@ricardoh87]

This was both disgusting but very informative! Thank you

[@ImtooFuturistic]

I wish my was that easy to takeout

[@favorites3175]
