    I only use the machine for sanitizing my tableware. Everything else is hand washed. My hands are always cracked in the winter from cooking.

    Hand washing uses way too much water compared to a dishwasher… takes too long… and… it’s not fun for the whole family! 👎

    1) Battleship is a whole ocean of water.

    2) Washing dishes needs to last as long as a game of Battleship.

    3) Only half of the family matters.

    Me in third grade while washing the dishes: "Mom, we should get a dishwasher."
    Mom: "I've got one."

    I don't mind washing dishes by hand, but it's really only fun/efficient using the two-sink method. Gotta have good sponges and surfactants, though.

    How many kids ya got, bro? 🤔

    When we have people over, there are frequently eight or so present. Usually four courses. Change of plates… side plates… change of cutlery for each course… three wine glasses minimum per person… plus a water glass… 😳

    Also, crystal glasses can break easily, so the dishwasher is my preferred method for those too.
    The servants can make quick work of all those dishes.

    Seriously though, I'd have to run the dishwasher after maybe two courses. Mine doesn't fit 8x4 dishes and glasses combined, not to mention, I don't have that much dinnerware.
    Luckily, these days, I am usually only cooking for 3 or 4 at most.

    I haven't hand washed dishes for over 30 years as I can always think of far more important tasks that need to be done. I also can't ever remember anything coming out of the dishwasher that needed a second wash or handwashing.
    One thing I discovered recently that works very well is dishwasher cleaning pods. They only come in packages of 3 and they're a bit pricey but they're worth it. The dishwasher smells nice for a couple weeks afterwards.
