What do you do when your dishwasher doesn’t clean perfectly every time?

The background here is if the run is not perfect my wife will just run it again

Which kinda annoys me because guess who's paying the electricity bill

Run everything again

So today I found my wife running the dishwasher a second timeBut this time there was no reasonShe just didn't even look to see if dishes were clean/dirty UnbelievableWhen I asked her about it, at first she ignored me like buried her head in the sandBecause she knew they're was no reason

Just grab a sponge and wash the dishes, use the dishwasher on high to sanitize

Scratch it off and put it back in the dishwasher for the next run.

I either clean the items by hand or leave them in the dishwasher to be re-washed with the next load. FYI if you're have trouble with you're dishwasher not cleaning perfectly, clean you're dishwashers filter, and if that doesn't work try different dishwasher detergent, some brands clean better then others.

I most buy the salt

And yes sometimes the tablet doesn't eject properly

But my issues is you don't wash everything twice

[queenofcardio]

I always rinse the dishes first before loading them in the dishwasher

Wash by hand. It is quicker and far more likely to get a superior result.

The usual problem is dried-on starches. I hand-wash them.

Use your hands in the sink

Well that's the correct answer

But a middle ground would be to remove the 90% of things that are clean
And leave the remaining 10% for the next time it's being run
