Why You Should Never Use a Dishwasher Tab in Your Washing Machine - House Digest

And while 7NEWS Australia also shared photos of water running out of the washing machine after being cleaned with the dishwasher tab, appliance experts have since come forward to weigh in on the hack, and their verdict was backfired.

A spokesman for New Zealand appliance maker Fisher & Paykel told 9Now that while dishwasher tablets can clean the inside of a dirty washing machine, the tablets can also leave a coating in the drum that may not be gentle on clothes. .

This could perhaps be seen as another cause for concern, as major appliance maker Bosch was actively discouraging owners of its machines from using dishwasher tabs, be it to clean the washing machine or do laundry. Instead, Bosch recommended its own brand of washer cleaners and descalers, saying specific washer cleaners would actually help "maintain your machine's efficient performance". As an alternative, you might want to consider a homemade solution of vinegar and some dish soap , which might work instead.
