    I've resorted, about a year or so ago, to using large bottles of natural spring water for the kettle (when making tea/coffee).
    It's an extra expense, however the lack of scaling has been lovely. Not had to clean my kettle once.

    My sink is another story though.

    Brita filters are cheaper per litre (you can do more than 100l per filter if it's for a kettle) and create less waste. Personally I only change the filter when I notice residue in the kettle and it's been so long I have to clean out the jug with citric acid so I clean the kettle at the same time.

      Sure, but not everything goes in the dishwasher

      Dishes do. Or at least the ones I have.

      But yea, I would never put my good knives into a dishwasher. But I also wouldn’t put them on a rack to dry.

        I used to feel like there was an aftertaste. I switched to using a vinegar dilution in the "rinse aid" slot and that's done the trick.

          Yeah the kettle gets bottle water, it'd be a block of limestone by now otherwise.

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

              I can say with certainty you have never hand washed a sink full of dishes before.

              I did, in that terrible time without the dishwasher, that I would like to forget. I was taking a plate, scrubbing it with a sponge and then rinsing it with clean water from the tap.
              Or do you want me to tell, y'all using a dirty sink full of dirty water to do it?

                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!

                  It's basically in every kitchen in Finland, and has spread somewhat to the other Nordic countries, but is apparently rare elsewhere.

                  No, I mean those dishwasher drawers you have in there? You should be able to take those and just slide them into a regular cupboard. You out empty ones in the dishwasher, and over time you fill those when you use the dishes.

                    This is the way. Double sinks suck. With this you have a double when you need, but can also waeh big things like oven sheets.

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

                              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?

                                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 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.

                                        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.

                                        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.

                                          They sure are and “what do you mean rinsing with clean water?” say some folks in Europe

                                          Not sure if we can blame the commercials
