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

Did you forget to use detergent?
If your glassware smells, something's wrong, as detergent uses water softening agents, enzymes, and rinse agents. Dishwashers do need to be regularly cleaned, and I've never met anyone who does so.
There's also the question of the dry cycle, which is crucial if you live in a high humidity environment. Otherwise things will get musty, like leaving clothes in a washing machine.
Restaurants use dishwashers (though generally not the same type as home units, but small shops have similar commercial units with fast cycles) - have you experienced this there?
Edit: For some reason the "default" way to store glassware in cupboards is upside down. I've always found this causes things to smell musty with the trapped air. Even worse in cabinets with no covering on the wood - that's just nasty. Or with old shelf paper that never gets cleaned, so there's all sorts of grubbiness making smells.
Even in dry climates I've found upside down causes funk.

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. -
This can be water. Detergent. Dirty dishwasher. Or you.
Or any combination of those.
What you are writing is highly abmormal.

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

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.

I have indeed failed you haha

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.

... turn the glasses upsidedown when putting them into a dishwasher.
(Also all restaurants use dishwashers, albeit they are of the more speedy sort. The funny smell is just the poor lad washing the dishes.)

I need double sink in my life.Such a pain moving from a country where it is the default to a country where it is unheard of.

Yeah, and not just Ikea stuff either, local brands there offer this too.
(I actually don't really like the concept, but would def think about it if for some reason I would stop using dishwashers.)

It's a good idea to clean your dishwasher out every once in a while. I do mine quarterly. They will get gross otherwise. There's a filter in the bottom that needs to be thoroughly cleaned out, and the bit it fits into. Clean the gasket all the way around, and then run a cycle with a sanitizer product if you feel like it.

I need double sink in my life.wrote last edited by [email protected]I’ve always tried to tell my SO this, but she’s been skeptical. Now, we’re renting a smaller apartment while renovating our bath, and she absolutely detests having only one sink basin!
