Just wait until you discover the dishwasher.

Just wait until you discover the dishwasher.
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.

I will never use a dishwasher. Every time I have to drink water from a glass that gas gone through a dishwasher I find the smell disgusting. And people with dishwashers get used to the smell, and stop feeling it.

Try non scented detergent?

Do you mean like this?

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

tbh I was more well organized back in the days. Now I just have no fucks to give.

You think my ADHD ass is ever unloading a drying rack? The dishes would just live there and I’d always be cramming new ones into it.
If only we had some technology that could dry a dish immediately and didn’t take up tons of space or grow mold… like some kind of flexible, absorbent material that sucks up the water? We should have NASA work on it

Looks reasonable, but feels like giving up. I'm not ready to give up on cupboards.

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

Need room for one of those. We cannot have a dishwasher.

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

Maiju Gebhard (September 15, 1896, in Helsinki – July 18, 1986, in Helsinki) was a Finnish inventor who invented the dish drying cabinet as the head of the household department at the Finnish Work Efficiency Institute in 1944 and 1945. She was the only child of economist Hannes Gebhard and politician Hedvig Gebhard.
