The inconvenience associated with using a lower basket of a dish washing machine is reduced or eliminated by a dish washing machine which includes a washing tub with an open front, a basket configured to be inserted in or drawn out from the washing tub through the open front of the washing tub, a door which opens or closes the open front of the washing tub, at least one guide rail for mounting the basket on the door when the basket is drawn out from the washing tub while the door is open, and a lifting device which guides the guide rail to move between a raised position and a lowered position of the guide rail.
