    I don't have a dish washer, never had one or used one, I wouldn't know what to do with one! To me, it seems an awful waste of time, by the time you have loaded and unloaded it, you may as well just washed the blooming things by hand anyway. Ex hubby always wanted to get one as he said it would be easier for him....hmm, I was the dish washer apart from about two plates a week he did! We didn't have the room anyway.....

    I do however, have a tumble dryer...3 boys, two with bowel disorders make it rather an essential to keep up with it all.

    Our dishwasher broke down and whilst we got by, we did miss the dishwasher until it was replaced.

    Thin with the dishwasher is that for us, it clears up the kitchen.

    When you finished with a dish, give it a quick rinse and put into the dishwasher, when it's full, switch it on.

    You can then do other things whilst the dishes was and simply return to empty it later.

    It's a different kind of work, somehow. This is one of those things that's hard to articulate for some reason.


    I don't think many people who've used one will switch back.;)

    Ive seen The Light makes a good point!
    Just as having an indoor toilet doesn't sound much better than having an outdoor one, you might soon feel that it is, and that you'd prefer not to switch back. :D
