InterDesign 255 00 Clean & Dirty Dishwasher Indicator

Great alternative for dishwasher -- suction cup rather than magnetic
We have had one of these for at least 4 years. It has worked great for us. And the price was reasonable.

In the past, we had a magnetic one. After moving to a different house, we discovered that the magnetic one would not work on the dishwasher in this house, because the door and the rest of the dishwasher front has very little steel or other metal, to which a magnet could cling. Some kind of plastic laminate I guess. Our old magnetic sign-flag-indicator thing-ee just fell on the floor.

Okay, I know you should read the product specs closely, but I put in "Magnet" for the search and naturally assumed that that's what I was getting.... It's not a magnet AND more importantly, the parts that appear to be white in the photo are actually CLEAR. So, if you happen to have a black dishwasher like I do, or even a stainless one, you can barely see the indicator, let alone read it. Just some thoughts to keep in mind.

Put an end to guessing about "clean" or "dirty" dishes. Simply apply this suction cup indicator on your dishwasher and turn it accordingly to let your family know if it's okay to grab a bowl.

black & clearThis simple device informs the family whether dishes in the dishwasher are clean or dirty. It adheres to the dishwasher with a suction cup. Half black (with a "dirty" sign) and half clear (with a "clean" sign), the 3-inch device can be spun to position the proper sign at the top so everyone knows what's what. --Fred Brack
