Dishwasher door holder

thingiverse

Kitchenaid / Whirlpool dishwasher doors are known for unlatching mid cycle. I made this to prevent mine from unintentionally opening and so far it has done the job well. It slips under the counter nosing edge. If yours doesn't have the edge it could be modified to work with any profile. Update, I originally used PLA, it lasted for a while but eventually the dishwasher heat deformed it. I made a new one with PLA/PHA, it lasted a bit longer but eventually failed. I was going to do a metal reinforced version but decided to remove the hinges and see if there was an issue. The hinge was bent so that the edges where no longer parallel. I put it in a vise and made it parallel again...seems to have fixed the latching issues. Hope that helps anyone with the same issues:)
