Whirlpool WPW10311153 Silverware Basket for Dishwasher

The Whirlpool WPW10311153 Dishwasher Silverware Basket is a detachable component designed to hold and clean utensils during a dishwasher cycle. It is specifically made for Whirlpool dishwashers and may also fit Jenn-Air models. Typically situated on the upper rack, the basket features multiple sections and dividers for organizing forks, knives, spoons, and other utensils. It may include a locking mechanism to secure it in place while washing. Water jets from the dishwasher's spray arms reach the basket, effectively washing the utensils. The design of the basket permits water to flow through and around the utensils, helping to remove food particles and clean them thoroughly.
