What we really need is the double-wide or triple-wide dishwasher. If everything fits in one load, you're always all clean in the morning and all dirty in the evening. Now it's just a daily habit of putting things away in the morning and popping things in after you're done eating each meal.

How about just keeping two dishwashers? One starts full of clean stuff and you use it like a cupboard, taking stuff out of it as you use it. The other starts empty and you add stuff to it after using it until you have transferred everything from one to the other. Then you run the full one and start again.

Ours is a Fisher & Paykel dual dishdrawer, which does exactly that, in the space of a single unit.

I saw this "hack" on instagram or something and if I ever get a kitchen big enough for two dishwashers I fully plan on doing this.

Doesn't really need two dishwashers, just two set of racks and a cupboard that can accommodate the other set.

Why don't we just build the dishwasher into the cabinets? Then putting them away and washing them is the same chore.

You can purchase dishwashers designed to have a cosmetic door overlay.

You can also do this for drawer style dishwasher. Giving it quite an inconspicuous look.

Do you get through more than one dishwasher load of dishes in a day? That seems like an awful lot of dishes.

We would probably call it a “freedom”washer though.

Please. It’s welcome that compared to fridges dishwashers are pretty standardized.

But I am a bit surprised that more people who entertain a lot don’t have two dishwashers. But they probably have staff for that in many cases.
