It's a total gamechanger.

IT’S probably one of the most used appliances in your home – but did you know your dishwasher includes a secret button that you’ve probably never heard of? 

Luckily, a mum has revealed her handy hack – and it makes washing pint glasses or tall glasses actually possible.

TikTok user Baby Chicks, aka @babychickofficial, uploaded a video in which she had a fully stacked dishwasher ready to be cleaned.

However, while the bottom shelf’s items, including plates and bowls, all fitted in nicely, she revealed how she was struggling with the top one. 

But then she discovered a hidden button – and quickly spread the word to her 39k followers in case they were in the same scenario as her.

Baby Chicks wrote: “The dishwasher hack that I needed to know years ago – you’re welcome.” 

She then continued in the video: “Need to put something on the top rack of the dishwasher but it won’t fit?”

Next, she showed how a lot of top shelves in dishwashers feature two buttons at either side. 

And when you press them, you’re onto a winner.

The TikToker continued: “Press the side buttons to lower the rack.

“And voila… now it’ll close.”

And she revealed that if you need to higher the rack again, you simply use her hack once more. 

She added: “If you need to adjust again, press the side button and lift the rack.” 

And it seems her trick is already going down a treat with social media users who were previously in the dark about the buttons’ existence. 

This comes after internet users were also left dumbfounded over a secret button in a car that helps defrost it in minutes.

But what is it? 

The secret lies in turning on the car heater to full blast, and then switching on the car's air conditioning.

"It will help soak up the remainder of any moisture inside," a woman from Eden Tyres and Servicing said in a TikTok video.

The second step is to push a different button – the car's air circulation button.

"When turned on, this then traps the humidity inside," she explained, so turning it off means it will defrost quicker.

She rounded off the video by revealing the results, as she concluded: “Open all of the car windows - only ever so slightly".

"This will help exchange humidity in the car for the dry air that's outside.

“And voila, a nice defrosted windscreen!”
