Your Dishwasher Has a “Secret” Filter You’ve Probably Never Cleaned — Here’s How to Find It

Photo 2 of 4

The “secret” filter is usually much easier to find than people expect. In most dishwashers, it’s located at the very bottom of the tub, underneath or near the lower spray arm. To check, all you usually need to do is pull out the bottom rack and look down into the base of the machine.

You’re typically looking for something like a:

  • round cap
  • mesh cylinder
  • twist-lock insert
  • or a removable screen-like piece

On many models, it blends in so well with the base that people simply never notice it unless they’re specifically looking for it. And that’s exactly why it gets ignored. Its job is to catch leftover food and debris before that material gets pushed back onto your dishes or deeper into the dishwasher’s system. Which is helpful — but it also means it can end up collecting grease, soft food scraps, sauce residue, seeds, and all kinds of unpleasant buildup over time.

So if your dishwasher has started feeling “off,” this hidden filter is one of the first places worth checking.
