Over time, even the most pristine appliances can become dirty and grimy, allowing bacteria to build up. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to cleaning appliances—each requires a different method. Here’s a guide to how to clean three popular household appliances. 

Your Appliance Cleaning Guide

1. Dishwashers

Although dishwashers clean dishes, unfortunately, they don’t clean themselves. Over time, muck and grit will stick to the walls and lead to an unpleasant smell. The solution is to fill a cup up with vinegar and then place it on the upper rack of your dishwasher. After that, run a full cycle without dishes in it. 

2. Refrigerator

When food in a refrigerator goes bad or leaks out of its container, it can leave spots and sometimes, a funky smell. It can be unpleasant every time you open your fridge. Regularly empty expired, rotten, or stale food from your fridge. Use a solution that combines vinegar and water to wipe down any grimy areas. 

3. Microwave

Spills add up in a microwave, and food often gets stuck on the walls and ceiling of the appliance. Instead of starting by vigorously scrubbing every inch, it’s smarter to loosen up the bits of food first. Place a bowl of water in your microwave and run it until it boils. This will make it far easier to wipe down.
