    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.

    Ok so that takes you what an extra 30-90 seconds like once or twice a month? That’s negligible. The other person Almost made it sound like he had to spend hours because of extra basin.

      Yup. Also: I'm tall, so now I can't see everything that's in the sink. It also needs some kind of anti-tip measure if the suggested use is to keep heavy dishes up high like that. Also, I'm not convinced this is sanitary - are we gonna get raw-chicken-water-splashback onto clean plates?

      My short ass finds some of this helpful but not enough! It's going to be difficult to get some of the stuff from the back of the top rack for me. More room though...

        If my dishes are unable to survive the dishwasher gauntlet, they are too weak to stay in my kitchen

        I mean that’s what we can fall back on if we’re feeling bashful, getting critiqued for that perspective

          I wanted to put a rack for those dishwasher trays into a regular cupboard, so that we could have basically a real dishwasher for dirty stuff, and a cupboard for clean stuff so that we never have to empty it.

          My husband Veto'd it, because "that's the epitome of laziness". Which I think is exactly the point, but whatever. It's his job to empty the dishwasher now, which solves the problem too.

          You are an absolute genius. If I was in a house I would build this 100% (I build all kinds of random things).

          Also, tell your husband to do the dishes if it's so easy. Reading hard.

            I've always wanted the version built into a cabinet, but I live in a high-humdity area and that just screams of mold issues. Why not the version as pictured in the open? Earthquakes. Still, definitely at the point in my life that it's awesome at least in theory

            I wondered if they perforated the bottom shelf of those cabinets so water could just drain out into the sink?

              This looks like AI.

              Why's the drain on the side?
              What are those cinnamon sticks?
              Why put fruit on the drying rack?
              Blurry ass soap labels.
              The whisk and ladle are oddly placed.


              Alas. I was bamboozled. It's real crap on Wayfair, and it's modular. It's just set up in a dumb way for the pictures.

              I actually have this thing. The knife thing is annoying and it just sits on the back acting as a brace for the dishsoap bottle. The cutting board rack is kinda dumb because it just dries onto your counter.

              But the baskets are nice because they drain into the sink. It was a really cheap kitchen improvement purchase I don't regret.

              What it needs though are raised rubber gasket lined feet so it doesn't hold bits of water under the base you have to lift and wipe up. It's cheap material and easily modified.

                My mother in law has one of those and I hate it, its all wobbly and just holds way too many dishes so they end up living there basically.

                  Maiju Gebhard (September 15, 1896, in Helsinki – July 18, 1986, in Helsinki) was a Finnish inventor who invented the dish drying cabinet as the head of the household department at the Finnish Work Efficiency Institute in 1944 and 1945. She was the only child of economist Hannes Gebhard and politician Hedvig Gebhard.

                  It's also super cool that they had a productivity institute before. I wonder what we could have achieved with something like that today.

                  There are so many ways we could make society more efficient for everyone. Companies mostly focus on smaller issues for consumers, but society could have a more overarching look, and not focus on profits, but on quality of life and efficiency.

                    Thats a pathetic little kitchen faucet. Real grownups use professional multi-spray kitchen faucets with removable head and swivel action...

                      The dishwasher is actually better than what most people think, but a lot of them don't know that they're using it wrong.

                      The directors cut version of this video changed how I run my dishwasher for many many years now.

                      Get it hot before you start and add a little detergent to the tub for pre-wash cycle is a game changer.

                        And then you get to a point where you look at that and think “clever but I’m sure it’s fucked up in some way that isn’t immediately obvious.”

                            Yeah, that was the first thing I found out, looking at the picture.
                            One would have to tilt the holder backward to take out the knife and then make a very unnatural feeling motion to get it towards themselves.
                            Even worse if there is no space behind the rack (there is a window in the picture that will enable that if opened)

                                I can't figure out how you'd actually get a knife in those slots with the ledge above it.

                                    I have this drying rack, and... I LOVE it!

                                    But the knife holder is the biggest problem. All the bits are modular so you can set it up with the knife holder not having something right above it, but my favorite knife is too long to sit in the knife holder without stabbing the countertop. I solved the problem by getting one of those magnetic knife holders and mounting it to the side of the rack.

                                    Also, when people who come over to my place for dinner or hanging out, about half of them make a comment about how awesome the drying rack is.

                                    (I'm 47 and I got this rack about 5 years ago)

                                      There was a guy on reddit who had two dishwashers for this reason.

                                      I feel like it would be more difficult to manage a system to figure out which one is dirty, rather than just emptying it.

                                      Just get ones that have a metal door, and magnetic sign that says dirty or clean.

                                        I got way too big of a house to even attempt to keep it

                                        I wait for robots, in the meantime I am moving out the second it gets too clunky aside from two roombas that keep floor in passable condition

                                        Maybe new house will have more allure to keep it or maybe I should hire someone but I don’t trust hired mercenaries to wage war on my dirt

                                          It's the double sink that gets me. I've lived in places with a double sink. I do not have a double sink right now.
                                          I need double sink in my life.

                                          I too dream of a double sink.
