I'm turning to the BuzzFeed Community to ask: what are some useful household appliance hacks that more people should know about?

Maybe you recently learned that you need to empty the drain on your washing machine because it helps the machine run better.

Perhaps you were late to realize that some stove tops lift up completely for cleaning — which makes your life so much easier.

Or maybe — with multiple young kids in your house — you're quick to tell fellow parents about the fact that many microwaves have a specific lock button for safety.
