This so much. Don't have a dishwasher currently and I spend upwards of 20 minutes a day in front of the sink. Makes my shoulders hurt hunching over like that all the time
Only 20 minutes?!?! I do have a dishwasher, and I still spend well over 20 minutes hunched in front of the sink cleaning dishes that can't go in the dishwasher every day.
I let my dishwasher decide which dishes can be washed in there. They either survive or they end up in the trash.
No one in hell would I pay premium prices for something that is going to waste my time by requiring pampering.
Same with clothes.
It's all just stuff and I refuse to allow it to control me.
This is a pretty silly mindset. I cook every day. I like to use high quality tools for my cooking. That includes high quality kitchen knives. Those shouldn't be dishwashered. It ruins the handles and dulls the blade.
Same with my nice cast iron pans. And wooden cutting boards.
I also have several very large pots/bowls/etc that are just too large to fit in the dishwasher.
The dishwasher is an extremely useful tool, but it's pretty ridiculous to limit what kitchen tools you're willing to use simply because they aren't compatible with another kitchen tool.
Actually badass though, force yourself to spend hours over a period to find indestructible stuff, then enjoy freedom from hours of stupidlabor weekly forever
Almost everyone I know who spends real time in the kitchen would agree with you though 🙂
Claiming my choices are silly is silly.
I have that too and sometimes it helps to spread your legs wide and keep your upper body upright instead of hunching over. You can also swap between the two positions since eachbis hard to do for a long time.
Fill a pot, put it over the countertop and use it as a sink.
I can't wash dishes even if wanted to, too tall so the sink is way too low down. Instant back pain.
Buuuut I'd rather not renovate the kitchen just for that. Dishwasher crutch! Haha.
I'm taal too. I got a maid. Game changer.
Hunching over? How tall are you?
I'm only 5'10" not exactly a giant. We just have a deepish sink and maybe lower than average countertops
Not OP, but I'm 6'6" (200 cm). I'm ALWAYS hunching over in the kitchen.
Some are cursed with blessings
