I tried to clean the filter in my dishwasher after having had it for a year or so… unscrewed a bunch of stuff trying to find it… ultimately turned to the internet for answers. Like why is this so goddamned difficult?

Turns out, some of them now (I bought this one about 10 years ago, it’s midrange at best) don’t have them, they have macerators, sort of like a tiny garbage disposal inside the dishwasher.

So that question isn’t always wrong.
