My SIL has a dishwasher but prefers to wash dishes by hand. I think that's crazy talk. If it's dishwasher safe, it goes in the dishwasher. I'm already washing bottles all the time, I don't need to wash dishes too.
-
I prefer to wash things by hand too!
But I'm trying to use the dishwasher...
-
If I could marry my dishwasher I would! Ok, I wouldn't... but it would be my secret affair :oP
I love having a dishwasher! I washed dishes by hand for years and cursed it every-single-time. It's so much easier for me to clean up after cooking and dinner time.
-
We used to wash by hand UNTIL the twins came along and generated lotsa bottles so we started to use th dishwasher. After just using it for 2 weeks, it broke down and could not get fixed for another 2 weeks! We missed it so much and was amazed and how dependent we got on it in such a short time!

DH and I lived without a dishwasher for six months and it sucked for us. I felt like I spent 45 minutes a day washing dishes, and for as little free time as we have, that was way too much.
-
we have a dishwasher but we dont use it. So far its just the two of us and I feel its washed better and cleaner if its done by hand. Maybe when the baby arrives that might change but for now the dishwasher just sits there unused.
-
Every other day we seem to fill that thing. I don't think we could live without it.
-
Yes, we have one and we love it!
-
We have a dishwasher and I hand wash everything now. Our dishwasher just doesn't do a good enough job. It's a pain to hand wash the dishes every day though.
-
@Leialou: Our dishwasher isn't great either. I give everything a good rinse before I stick it in there.
-
I ONLY use the dishwasher. DH will hand wash things but I definitely prefer not to!
-
I hand wash. I don't trust dishwashers..
-
Words can not begin to describe how excited I was when we bought our house and it had a dishwasher. For the 7 years before we bought it I did not have one in the places I weas renting. LOOOOOOOVE having one.
-
My mom does all her dishes by hand. We wash our dishes and then use the washer to sanitize.
-
OMG, dishwasher required in any place I live. I can not fathom dealing with dishes, I hand wash pots and serving pieces but I like the sani-rinse feature for drinkware and flatware, esp. when someone's sick.
-
I use it for the easy stuff, but all the big pots/pans stuff I want to be really sure are clean I do by hand.
-
Yes, i can't live without it.
-
I lived without a dishwasher for so many years and now it is a requirement!!
-
We don't have a dishwasher. I prefer doing dishes by hand anyway.
-
Oh, I love my dishwasher. Even when I had a bad one, if it didn't get clean, I'd just wash it again. Now we have a Bosch, best dishwasher ev-AR!! And I find that I cook more when I don't have to hand wash afterwards.
-
OMG yes I would be so unhappy without my dishwasher! I don't even mind washing things, really--it's the drying that I hate! That's why DH does that part
-
We have a dishwasher but only use it to DRY the dishes! We wash everything by hand.
I used to think I could not live without a dishwasher, but it was impracticle to wash our small china set multiple times a day. I think the dishwasher will become more important as we have larger loads.
-
All the time....I can't imagine not having a dishwasher anymore.
-
When we didn't have a good dishwasher, I would wash the dishes by hand and use the dishwasher as a giant drying rack.
Now that we have a good dishwasher, I can't remember how I was able to wash all those dishes by hand!
-
Our new rental house where we're moving this summer doesn't have a dishwasher. The first thing I plan on buying once we move there is one of those external dishwashers that hooks up to the sink. I couldn't possibly live without a dishwasher, and I'm pretty sure I'll feel ever more strongly about this once baby arrives.
-
i love having a dishwasher! i don't think i could ever live in a house without one.
-
I used to wash by hand. When Baby Bear came 5 months ago, I started to use it. My SO washs by hand b/c he wants them super clean. If I rinse, they are clean.lol
