Had no idea my dishwasher had a filter! We've been wondering why some dishes aren't getting clean. It was completely covered in hard water!! 7 years without cleaning.. Thanks for the video! ❤
A dishwasher has a filter? Mindblown! We have had dishwashers for 40 years! LOL.
Tbh she did say older models dont have one.
“Where the hell did your gloves go?” Hahahahaha
I could not believe what I found in my dishwasher filter. I have a countertop dishwasher and I thought that if I just rinsed out the filter that would suffice. I live in an RV and so at night is when I rinse out the filter outside. It's dark so I would not have noticed the clear to white slime build up taking place. I thought the dishwasher detergent would take care of that since it's pretty strong, slightly corrosive to get the food particles off and dishes squeeky clean. I was shocked and disgusted by what I found out while rinsing the filter out during the day. Hence finding myself watching your video. Great video and info. I won't be allowing that to happen again. Thank you!
Thank you. My filter had slimy black mold. I had no idea how often it needs cleaning.
I'm not sure what that filter is made of, but if it's metal, direct bleach can corrode many metals, which is why washing machines have a special way to put bleach in. Renae the appliance repair tech @renduh taught me that. 😊 Other videos say soap and water is fine for cleaning the filter. You just have to make sure it's rinsed well to avoid soapy foam, I would think. 🤔
Love my dishwasher ecosystem
First time dishwasher owner and just found out this is a thing
You can also detached the long part from the panel. Just look for the tap to push in and remove 😊
Been in my house for 4 years and I didn't know this was a thing. I'm terrified of what I'm going to discover
Good thank you!
Wow... I had no idea there was a dishwasher filter. I've had my dishwasher for 3 years 😮
So many people don't know! That's why they get so gross lol.
@@gocleanco So true. Mine was disgusting! Not anymore, thanks to you!
@@gocleanco rinse your dishes first and the filter doesn't get so dirty!
I never knew this. Going to try today
Thank you, love your accent :)
We need to go back to dishwashers without filters
0:22 how thoughtful of you to think of us :-) lol no thank you really some people don’t know this is a thing I wasn’t really sure how everybody needs to know that because yeah, I know that smell
You don't know until you know. Cleaning thousands of homes as a cleaning company it became obvious what people did and didn't know. So we are here to share.
You can do the bleach wash with plates in there? I have been doing it empty but yah if I can full!!!
Right?
Im lazy and just rinse it out out once a month. Its not too bad cause I rinse off my dishes before loading. But now Im thinking maybe it needs a bleach scrub
The other part comes off as well! I have the same filter, and it has 2 notches that you squeeze for it to come off that plate thingy
Ugh. Thank you Sarah you made me smile. I'll do this tonight. What happened yo your gloves? 😅
Can you please do a video on a front load washer!?!
It is on our list to do.
I haven't done it in a while now, must be worse 😂 I always forget it lol
My filter is stuck. It won't twist out. :(
same how do you do it?
@@MichaelScotttlol The filter is still stuck. I bought some general dishwasher cleaner. It's going to take multiple treatments to get it clean.
Mine was also stuck. After several tries, it came off. The filter was disgusting! I’m in a rental and I’m sure whoever lived here before me never cleaned it! Yuck!!!
But older dishwashers don't have them? Because i don't see where mine is...
Do you still have your manual? You can check there to see if your model has a filter or you can google your make and model. But yes, lots of older models don't have them.
She's not worried about that sludge gathering in the sink trap.
I can't get what I think is the filter off
Depending on the age of the dishwasher it might not have one. Check your manual if you have it or google your make and model.
I dont have a filter.
Even the older ones need to be cleaned out 🤢
GROSS!
