Plastic containers not drying in the dishwasher

[anniewoo]

Lots of drops of water left on the plastic containers everything else dries well.Why is this happening?

Mine are always like this. I just put on draining board to dry. Don't get hot enough?

I get this too. Either bung em on the draining board or wipe em with a tea towel before putting them away.

they all do that madam.

it's something to do with the plastic not getting hot enough for the water to evaporate off it (unlike ceramics/metal) I think.

if it was hot enough they'd probably melt

I just shake the drips off & leave them on the side to air

I dry them with a tea towel
