When do you replace your washing up bowl?

  • I don't know how long I have had mine. It is more of an all purpose bowl than a washing up bowl though, as I have a dishwasher. I bleach it aobut once a week. If you really want a shiny black bowl, buy one, it seems cheap enough.
    Plastic is not very environmentally friendly though so I won't be replacing mine till it gives up the ghost.

    I wash mine every day with hot water and washing up liquid, is that any good?! :confused:

    Well, alright then, I don't wash it exactly........I sort of "wash up" in it really.....:rotfl: ......can't say I've ever given any thought to it needing replacing through age though! I occasionally replace mine when I get bored with the colour - when we first had our kitchen painted blue I had a blue bowl to match, now I have a snazzy silver one. I do prefer a bowl - as someone else sais you use less water than you do in the sink. Also means that anything a bit fragile or china dropped into it by mistake stands a better chance of survival.
