The Differences Between dishwashers with hard food disposers vs. filtration
How a Hard Food Disposer Works in a Dishwasher
Uses a chopper to disintegrate food particles so they don’t end up recirculating onto your dishes. It rids the dishwaser of the particles so you don’t have to spend time cleaning it out.
- Disintegrates food particles
- Quiet models available
- Maintenance-free
How a Filtration System Works in a Dishwasher
Works quietly to trap the food washed off your dishes in a filter at the bottom of the dishwasher. This requires manual cleaning every month or so. Learn more about maintaining your dishwasher filter.
- Traps bits of food
