A dishwasher appeared in the house, and now it's hard to imagine how we managed without it. I uploaded, pressed a button, waited a bit - and that's it! However, not everything is so simple, there is one "but." It turns out that not every plate or cup can be washed in a dishwasher. What should be excluded? This is important, because we are interested in the fact that the machine itself and the dishes served as long as possible. We will understand this issue together.
Metal objects
Not every piece of metal loves to take a bath in the dishwasher. That's what we have to wash with our hands, because the machine version of these products is prohibited:
- Cast iron pans and pots. Over time, they will become rust from the constant excess of water. And the high temperature will wash away the thin protective fat layer that forms after the first use of the pan.
- Aluminum cookware. Under the influence of detergents, it oxidizes and deteriorates.
- Silverware. When cleaning in the car, they darken and become stained. This significantly spoils the appearance.
- Products from tin, copper. They are also covered with dark spots under high temperatures.
- Teflon coated frying pans. It does not like temperature extremes and aggressive detergents. We ourselves can easily and gently remove pollution. And this will increase the use of such dishes.
ATTENTION! Any metal products with wooden handles are also washed exclusively by hand.

TIP! Such devices are wiped outside with a damp cloth. And special tools (for example, citric acid) will help to get rid of scale.
- Small kitchen utensils: grater, strainer, press for squeezing garlic. Only by hand we can wash them thoroughly and not leave small dirt.
- Acrylic and melamine utensils on which cracks from exposure to high temperatures and detergents.
