That's a work of art

No not really. There’s pretty much zero maintenance on stainless steel sinks. Once in a blue moon you can wash down the sinks while doing dishes but it really happens less than you think.
To be fair I do have to wipe my sinks more often, only because we have rather hard water in this area. The scale builds up quickly.

I like these a lot better since the dishes are put a lot higher, meaning more space to move between the shelf and the sink. Guess this makes me no longer young.

I've also seen these in Italy. Quite genious.
Wait they're not common elsewhere?

The knives look like a pain to load and remove though

We have one of these! Saw a pic on Reddit and had it delivered within a week. We actually use it all the time for things that shouldn’t go in the dishwasher. A few things:
- They’re expandable, so they can go over single and double sinks.
- They’re generally made of “just strong enough” metal, to the shelves sag. Have had some heavy stuff on there, so it’s still pretty solid.
- It never looks anywhere near this organized.
- Stuff stays on it way longer than necessary, but it does eventually get put away… when we have company over.
My mother never really removes the dishes from the drying rack, she uses it as storage (it's a cabinet), the one in her home is bent visibly, but it still holds after decades of work.

What do you do with double sink? I've never had a double sink and I can't imagine how I would use it
I can say with certainty you have never hand washed a sink full of dishes before.

I've resorted, about a year or so ago, to using large bottles of natural spring water for the kettle (when making tea/coffee).
It's an extra expense, however the lack of scaling has been lovely. Not had to clean my kettle once.My sink is another story though.
-
Yeah, no I'll stick with the dishwasher.
Right? I'd get more excited about a dishwasher.
And I don't mean one with tits. They also get to enjoy free time when the mechanical dishwasher is running.

Sure, but not everything goes in the dishwasher
If my dishes are unable to survive the dishwasher gauntlet, they are too weak to stay in my kitchen

Brita filters are cheaper per litre (you can do more than 100l per filter if it's for a kettle) and create less waste. Personally I only change the filter when I notice residue in the kettle and it's been so long I have to clean out the jug with citric acid so I clean the kettle at the same time.

Dishes do. Or at least the ones I have.
But yea, I would never put my good knives into a dishwasher. But I also wouldn’t put them on a rack to dry.

I used to feel like there was an aftertaste. I switched to using a vinegar dilution in the "rinse aid" slot and that's done the trick.

Yeah the kettle gets bottle water, it'd be a block of limestone by now otherwise.

Yeah I tried that but my wife loves the wooden spatulas and cutting boards too much

I did, in that terrible time without the dishwasher, that I would like to forget. I was taking a plate, scrubbing it with a sponge and then rinsing it with clean water from the tap.
Or do you want me to tell, y'all using a dirty sink full of dirty water to do it? -
Idk about others, but I have one sink for wash water, and one for rinse water.
And you, just, like, put a clean dish in the same stale water as all the others? I am shivering just thinking about! Only the first couple of plates will be clean, everything else is dirty with the shit from previous plate!

Do you mean like this?

It's basically in every kitchen in Finland, and has spread somewhat to the other Nordic countries, but is apparently rare elsewhere.
No, I mean those dishwasher drawers you have in there? You should be able to take those and just slide them into a regular cupboard. You out empty ones in the dishwasher, and over time you fill those when you use the dishes.

Use the poor man's replacement plastic tub.
This is the way. Double sinks suck. With this you have a double when you need, but can also waeh big things like oven sheets.

This idea is too good to not exist
