That's a work of art

yeah I own one cause even though I have a dishwasher there's some stuff that's hand wash only and you can use it for handy storage too like yours

[macaroni_ninja@lemmy.world]

True, the one on the picture is an overkill for meme reasons

[mbech@feddit.dk]

Many people rent. You can't just remove a cabinet in that case. Can't decide how big the kitchen is either. I'm sorry, but your comments come off as very privilaged and honestly ignorant.

[mailloche@lemmy.ca]

I have both. I'm not putting my plastic salad spinner or German chef knives or old plastic food storage containers or blender jar or my pots and pans and etc. in the dishwasher. Restaurants have human dishwashers for valid reasons.

How is it unsanitary?

[chickenladyloveslife@lemmy.world]

even countertop variants

Good thing countertops have no use in a kitchen!

[blackn1ght@feddit.uk]

If space was at a premium, sure, but I'd hate to have this in our kitchen.

[napkin2020@sh.itjust.works]

You need to check your available space privilege.

[tigeroovy@lemmy.ca]

I just have a dishwasher so this would be a bit overkill.

[bakkoda@sh.itjust.works]

Unless that window has a view of a brick wall I agree. Also butcher block with a drying rack dripping on it isn't gonna last long.

[chiliedogg@lemmy.world]

They'd also be very difficult to place and remove.

It doesn't have to waste more water. There are ways to do the dishes where you only use water to rinse off the already washed plates. That is in fact less water than with a dishwasher. Maybe you are thinking of washing the dished with the water constantly on.

[bluesheep@lemm.ee]

Just fork over the $600

I prefer paying my rent over kitchen appliances

[blubfisch@discuss.tchncs.de]

Because the machine is generally more reliable at doing it in a more sanitary way. People often cut corners when doing it manually.

According to the CDC,
chicken should not be rinsed to avoid Salmonella cross contamination.

Notabene: this advise is from the pre-Trump CDC.

[kornblumenratte@feddit.org]

That's a terrible ineffective method, and a waste of water.

Fill one sink with hot water + soup, put as much dishes in it as possible to soak them, and fill the other sink with fresh hot water. Clean one dish after another, preferably with a brush (you'll burn your hands using a sponge), rinse them in the clean water, and put them on the dryer.

If you do not have a second sink, use a tub for either purpose.

And yes, the water will get dirty and cool over time, and you'll have to switch if you've got too much dishes.

Of course, if you're only cleaning a plate and a knife and perhaos a glas, using just the tap is far more efficient.

You can get them for way less though (esp. used).

[aceshigh@lemmy.world]

I prefer the Dutch cabinet (I think that’s what they’re called) is what I want. It’s basically that except it’s in a cabinet.

[underpantsweevil@lemmy.world]

A clean kitchen is a triumph of the modern era. Show this to a caveman or a renaissance era scholar and claim two middle-age adults with at least one child and a dog accomplished it in less than an hour. They will praise it as a miracle.

Yup, my father in law insists on putting pots and pans back in the cupboard right after a quick/cursory toweling and I’ve had to clean out his cupboards more than once. Fortunately the wood is mostly mold resistant, but I’ve had to clean all of the contents of those cupboards more than once now.
