Accordingly, no rinse remains in the rinse tank 10, and all rinses in the rinse tank 10 can be discharged from the rinse discharge port 18. For this reason, all the rinses are replaced with new ones when refilling the rinse tank 10. Accordingly, it is possible to suppress that the rinse remains in the rinse tank 10 and the float magnet detection unit 24 is stuck due to the influence of the remaining rinse or clogged due to the rinse of the remaining rinse discharge path. Therefore, the dishwasher 1 is convenient.
