metal scourers always end up with a broken bit.. which then makes a hole in my glove.. i use coconut fibre ones. Eco Coconut is the brand. they're the best washing dishes things i ever used. they last for ages. Makes sense. I dislike the plastic ones as well. The stainless steel scours are what I got used to working in restaurants and in the Navy. I've never kept one long enough to see it fray. Steel wool is a very bad idea, it releases lots of metal bits. Only good for pots. |

Steel wool is a very bad idea, it releases lots of metal bits. Only good for pots. yeah. shards of metal still better than microplastic though : ) The eco coconut is by far the winner for me. It's pretty good on most pots even. if they're really bad.. like when i run off and get distracted by a forum and leave my rice to burn.. then i use the metal one. there are also recycled plastic ones.. that's a terrible idea. recycling plastic is better than not, for some things.. but I read that second life plastic sheds more microplastic so i think no good. |

I scrub side to side with a cotton dish cloth...hey people...you aren't supposed tp scrub against the cutting edge....only with it and then the inside and rinse...…...I can likely solve many problems of this level  |

Yup Rolling is right. Clean the inside then on the outside go with the cutting edge not against. It also helps to was immediately after using it. Once stuff dries on their forget it

I dont and never had a dishwasher.. but if the dishes etc are dry, then I leave them to soak.. a good soap is important, water no matter how hot, dont cut it on it's own.. Greece needs soap..

We had a dishwasher leak, but we didn't know it was leaking. We already planned to remodel the kitchen, a decade earlier we recovered the floor the dumb way with a big sheet of vinyl. The water went in below the vinyl and soaked the wood below.
One morning my wife walked into the kitchen and a spray of water shot up from the floor where she stepped. We knew something had to be wrong. I lifted part of the vinyl and discovered that 10 years earlier I should have rpped up the whole floor. It had 6 layers. 6 times an asshole like me said "fuckit, let's just slap down a floor on top.
But all those layers are the main reason the water didn't destroy the floor joists. They were complete spared, but the plywood was rotted. It took a few weeks to get the floor and walls straightened out. At the end of the whole thing, my wife orders a $600 Bosch dishwasher. It doesn't have a heating coil for drying so it uses condensation in some weird way.
I installed an aluminum baking pan beneath it and ran a drain hose down into the basement and out a vent. Just in case.
I like dishwashers because I can run a load on sanitize and stuff comes out hospital clean. We're also pretty good about not letting stuff dry on plates or pans.

I dont Like Dishwashers they dont get the dishes clean ! really? I don't trust myself to get dishes as clean as my dishwasher does. Cutting boards that I cut raw meat on go right in the dishwasher. the water gets hotter than my hands can stand  |

A bit of clever work in photoshop might just do that. But what's on the other side of the portal? Simple, when I close the dishwasher door, the back side opens into another dimension where slaves with 4 arms toil away, washing our dishes by hand because they can withstand 180F with ease. German engineering!!! |

it's officially summertime here. the neighbors across the street have started their nightly ritual of taking turns standing in their front yard and screaming obscenities at their house for hours at a time. tonight it's something about *******, but it's hard to make out exactly what he's saying. You MUST get video of this for YouTube! It sounds viral! |

i dont have a dishwasher, but i was brought up to handle REALLY hot tap water. i do not trust a dishwasher to get things clean. too often there are chunkies of food left behind. hand-washing means that i can constantly feel the dish, and focus on a grungy/ greasy spot to get it gone. plus, my dudefolk have never understood how to load a dishwasher properly.

fark a dishwasher. i use a dish, i wash a dish. i don't see the point of saving up enough dirty dishes to put into a machine.
i actually just had to turn around and look in my kitchen to see if i had one. i do. i've never used it once. i should really be storing shiit in there; my apartment is not great on storage space.
i will say that when i worked in restaurants, i was much happier in the ones that had industrial dishwashers. but for around the house, they seem pointless to me.

There might be a vintage Porsche waiting. |

Of all places, you show up here? While I'm battling spammers no less. I think I finally have them figured out. But I had to shut down new membership for a while. Not that anyone is breaking the doors down over here. I just didn't like the way Chinese spammers were filling it with dummy threads. Welcome back Kotter! |
