Post subject: translation for "dish sterilizer"

I wanted to explain to someone the difference between an "oven" and a "dish sterilizer".
But whats the translation of "dish sterilizer" in Chinese again? (I was saying it like "makes the dishes hot and kills germs" Laughing )

Thanks Smile

No, I don't mean a dishwasher. A dishwasher uses water + special cleaning agent to clean dishes Wink

I mean these things which are often under the gas stove and look like an oven. But with them you can't do western style cooking but only heat plates or cuttlery ....

给消毒的碗机 ? Razz
