Andrew Laughlin is a dishwasher expert at Which? He shares five things he'd never do when stacking his machine.

Common mistakes include not taking the time to stack properly.

Laughlin also reveals whether it's a good or bad idea to pre-rinse your dishes.

Rinsing plates off before loading them into the dishwasher is not necessary.

Some items should never go in a dishwasher because they can get damaged.

Wooden items like spoons and chopping boards can swell and splinter due to the water exposure.

Regularly cleaning the filter at least monthly can also help prevent build-up of left-over food, bad odours and filthy plates.
