Loading the dishwasher is a chore that many people dread.  

And with so many pots, pans, plates and glasses used at Christmas, this task can be even more arduous over the festive period. 

Thankfully, help is at hand, as Which? has released a brand new guide on how to load your dishwasher this Christmas. 

‘While it’s less work than hand-washing everything after Christmas dinner, loading the dishwasher is still a chore,’ Which? said. 

‘But you can lighten the load by stacking your dishwasher efficiently.’

While it might sound laborious, the consumer champion advises sticking a wash on before you sit down to eat your dinner. 

‘Before you sit down to eat your Christmas feast, stick your dirtiest cooking dishes on an intensive wash (as long as they’re dishwasher safe),’ it said. 

‘This should get roasting trays and pans off the to-do list.’
