Dishwasher Soap Basket Holder

3-in-1 dishwasher soap tablets should be placed in the upper basket or cutlery basket and not in the powder dispenser housing.

Indeed the action of soap must be done from the pre wash, the tablets are designed to dissolve gradually throughout the cycles of the dishwasher (prewash + wash).

If we place the tablet in the powder housing, as this one opens during washing and not pre-washing, the effectiveness of the tablet is not optimal, at worst the dissolution of the tablet may continue during the rinsing phase ..

Placing the soap tablet at the bottom of the dishwasher is not better, it will dissolve itself completely during pre washing and for the washing cycle there will not enough soap present in the dishwasher.

Putting the tablet in the cutlery basket is sometimes not easy, and placing the tablet in the upper basket is sometimes not possible because the holes in the upper basket are too large and would drop the tablet at the bottom of the dishwasher.

So I created this little basket to welcome the tablet.
The pins at the bottom of the basket support the tablet to allow optimal dissolution.
I advise to print in ABS or PETG because it will be more resistant to the temperatures of the dishwasher.
There is a set of supports for 5mm section and 7mm section upper basket.
In order for the hooks to hold properly in use, it is best to melt them gently (see pics).

As a simple return like and post your make ! ;)

Happy printing ;)
