Before I load, I wash by hand. It's stupid, I know, but I can't stand loading the dishwasher with remnants on my stuff.

i handwash if it's just a few. 5+ placesettings, to the dishwasher it goes. i do a quick rinse to remove the solid bits before i load them though.

Agreed. It is way more efficient, especially considering the hassle of items which don't come out clean. It's another lie we were sold.

I keep telling that to myself as well but then i go camping with the family and when i come home i hug my dish washer. It's a bit of a mixed bag. Stuff not coming out clean is in 90% of the cases not an issue but i hate it when stuff does not come out dry. The point is more that it works great for glassware, plates, cutlery and stuff like that. Mostly the small things. I never but my pans or anything in it. Most are not even supposed to go in there anyway but these large pieces are cleaned very efficiently by hand anyway so finding the right balance on what should go in and what not makes the difference. It's mostly that i get so used to it until i am somewhere where there is no dishwasher and that makes me appreciate it again.

Hi vanessa. Nice to meet you 🤝 I find it much easier to wash the dishes. 'Caue to put them in the dishwasher you still have to rinse them so it's better that I wash them since they're there😅😓

That's actually bad for your dishware. The washer soap is designed to break down the food particles from what I remember reading when I first got a dishwasher.

Same here…

Yes! I find doing dishes therapeutic. It’s nice to take a moment to do something that doesn’t require any thinking. I know loading the dishwasher kind of is like that but most of the time you still have dirty dishes by the time you’re done! (Unless you ran the dishwasher)

I do this too! 😆

No way! Plus the dishwasher uses significantly less water than by hand

Could've sworn I saw a different video about it, but here's a news clip.

🤚 me, I find myself just hand washing most the time

It’s just easier 🤷‍♀️

I think so, too. It gets them done faster lol

Yes

Dishwasher broke, so now I am the dish washer 🤷‍♀️. I loved it when I had it, but it really doesn't take much effort if I stay on top of alllllllllllll the cups that seem to get used. I'm my own worst enemy seems like 🤣.

Haha I actually almost exclusively use the dishwasher just for cups. I hate washing cups

How a family of 3 uses eleventy billion cups over a couple of days is beyond me. We drink water from the same water bottles 90% of the time 🙄.

I am the dishwasher…
