How to get rid of suds in my Samsung DW80K2021 Dishwasher?

K
Kaitlyn PenaSep 7, 2025
If your Samsung Dishwasher has suds in the tub, it may be due to using improper detergent. Use only dishwasher detergent to avoid suds. You can open the dishwasher to let the suds evaporate, or add 1 gallon of cold water to the tub, close and latch the dishwasher, then start the Quick+ cycle to drain the water. Repeat if necessary. Also, rinse aid may have spilled; always wipe up spills immediately.
