Why would your house smell like sewer whenever you run the washer or dishwasher?
I suspect that you have a "p" trap in either a floor drain, or possible the laundry tub or a sink somewhere in the house. If you look under the kitchen sink, or a lavatory in the bathroom you can see a p-trap, it's shaped sort of like the curved part of the letter p. The purpose of the p-trap is to trap, or prevent, sewer gasses in the sewer lines from backing up into the house. By design, p-traps catch and hold some water, which blocks the pipe and stops the gas from coming up through the drain. IF you have a floor drain, or a lavatory drain, either of which don't get used enough to keep the water in the trap from evaporating away, leaving the drain pipe open, then when a lot of water is poured or flushed, pumped out of a washer, then that flowing water will push sewer gasses back up through the drain with the dry p-trap. What you are smelling is sewer gas.

How do you get rid of dish soap suds in a dishwasher?
A better way to eliminate suds from a dishwasher is to pour vegetable oil in the dishwasher.

Then regular automatic dishwasher cleaner will clean out any residual oil.

Wash it by hand; machine washing would destroy the shape of the hat. If its a Top Hat many dry cleaners specialise in cleaning them. There is a plastic hat form that you can buy for the regular brimmed hat. You place the hat in that and then on the top shelf of your dishwasher. Use regular dishwasher soap--not laundry soap. It should keep its shape and color.

Is the smell of burnt plastic harmful?
If you can smell burnt plastic then you could potentially be in danger. Smoke from burning plastic can be harmful to breathe.
The simple answer is bacteria caused from rotting food particles trapped in the drain and parts inside the dishwasher itself. There are dozens of cleaners on the market now that will clean and sanitize your dishwasher. Most simply require you to place the cleaner inside the dishwasher and run a cycle.
In a pinch- add a 1/4 cup of regular bleach to the detergent port and run a "scour" or heavy cycle. Might take a couple of cycles but you should see-and smell- an immediate difference.
Another possible problem is that the unit may be leaking and mold has began to grow around the leak. This requires the unit be pulled-leak repaired- and the mold cleaned up. A spray bottle with about 16ounces of water- 4ounces of bleach and 2 ounces or hydrogen peroxide works well on killing the mold and preventing it's return.
Are dishwashers hot or cold fill?
