How To Prevent Stainless Steel Getting Rusty In The Dishwasher?
I have a Hotpoint SDW80 dishwasher.
It’s very good but on the normal program (the one I use the most) leaves the stainless steel like pots, cutlery and so on labelled ‘dishwasher safe’ rusty.
Is there anything that I can do to prevent that happening? Do I have to stop the program towards the end when the drying time is active, would be that OK or I have to wait till the program has completed?
Any other suggestion?

How To Clean Stainless Steel Cutlery?
Stainless steel is an alloy of iron that contains more than 10 percent chromium. Stainless steel resists stains but occasionally dulls or will show oily finger prints. This steel is noted for its hardness and is used for utensils, tableware, sinks, counter tops and small appliances. In the process of making it, a little of the chromium in the alloy is used to form the hard oxide coating on the surface. If this is taken off, through corrosion or wear, the steel rusts like regular steel.

What Would Be The Dis Advantages Of Using Wood For Cutlery And The Disadvantages Of Using Stainless Steel?
You mean wooden knives with wooden blades? You might cut a baked potato, but you won’t slice anything the least bit tough. Cutlery has to be able to be sharpened and to hold a sharp edge. Wood won’t do that.
Stainless steel cutlery is cheap and readily available. You can buy all you need at a yard sale for $5. I don’t see any disadvantages to stainless steel.
