I considered this, but was forbidden: The limescale would leave it looking manky.

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?
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. -

Really? Everytime I go to family or friends who have a dishwasher and help with emptying it, the dishes are always at least a bit wet... Maybe everyone I know just has cheap dishwashers
Sanitizing on high heat seems like a great feature to have -

How do you get the knives in and out of that thing?

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?
wrote last edited by [email protected]It's a DRYING rack, it isn't meant to be permanent storage. You wash the dishes after dinner, and place them in the rack. The next morning, after they've dried, the first thing you do is put them all back in the cabinets.
However, I acknowledge that a LOT of people won't bother with the second step.

I want it. Where do I get it?

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.
More like the epitome of efficiency.

Except it won't look so pretty and also I can't imagine using the dispensers without taking them out of that thing unless it's VERY rigid.

Exactly!

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

wrote last edited by [email protected]I just open the dishwasher. Pull out the bottom rack, shake the top rack a bit and deal with any puddles. Anything that's not dry just goes back in for another hour. Leave the door open until dry.

And then you get to a point where you look at that and think βclever but Iβm sure itβs fucked up in some way that isnβt immediately obvious.β
wrote last edited by [email protected]All this crap in my way and too much clutter. Yuck. Also, anything over a sink is likely to get splashed. This is creating more cleaning work, and for what?
And who dries dishes like this? Are they not already clean and dry out of the dishwasher? Hand washing is very wasteful and time consuming.

Oh believe me the person who does the kitchen would have raised hell if that had happened, they had plenty of meltdown over other things in the past (rightfully so), so I'm quite sure it's a good system.

doesn't the cupboard get moldy if you keep putting wet dishes inside?
Its hollow from the bottom, the wooden part at the bottom is just in the front so water drips to the sink area under and has good ventilation.

That would cause me so much claustrophobia at the sink i would stop washing dishes.

Even if you don't you don't need chemicals. Just some water and citric acid.

With AI, of course!
More importantly, why is the drain on the side of the sink? How do to you get the water out of that thing?
