That's a work of art

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

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.

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.

I want it. Where do I get it?

I love this concept. The big problem is that a lot of American kitchens are (weirdly) modeled after old farmhouses where the sink was always under the one window in the whole room. The trend is absolutely hostile to this idea.
It’s nice to look out while you are washing the dishes.

Just don't ever Google the coulds of pathogens that spew forth from your drain.
There are things you are better not knowing

Yeah, no I'll stick with the dishwasher.
But how do you dry the dishes once the dishwasher is done? Do you leave them in the dishwasher to dry, which mean that you can't add new dished until it's all dry and you've emptied it? Do you let them dry on a counter? But in that case where do you find enough space? Or do you put the wet dishes in your cupboards even though it'll trap moisture in there? Or do you manually wipe the dishes with towels like some crazy people do?

Id say. I own that same rack.

doesn't the cupboard get moldy if you keep putting wet dishes inside?
-
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.
Yeah pretty much. It's not a big issue though one which could become compounded into one if there is any slack with the cleaning times.

We have that at work and the dirty one just has a red fridge magnet on it and so far no one has ever messed up

Thats a pathetic little kitchen faucet. Real grownups use professional multi-spray kitchen faucets with removable head and swivel action...
I considered this, but was forbidden: The limescale would leave it looking manky.

My dishwasher dries the dishes too?

wrote last edited by [email protected]The trick is to wipe it down with a wet soft wipe regularly, you dont even need chemicals.

Good dishwashers have a heating element on the bottom. . It turns on and dries the dishes in a cloud of steam. There is also a button on mine that's for high heat (sanitize) that I leave on. This ensures that the dishes get completely dry.

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!
I'm not sure what you mean. I fully wash the dish in the wash water, then put it in the straight hot rinse water for a minute or so before putting it in the drainer to air dry. The hot water helps them air dry faster and rinses the soap off.
If the rinse water is any less than completely clear, I'm not washing the properly, and I drain and refresh the rinse sink. In my opinion it saves water over rinsing each dish under running water.
