Do you wash dishes or use a dishwasher?

[raven1114]

We did have a dishwasher but it broke so for now we wash by hand.

I would prefer to use a dishwasher, but my husband would rather wash by hand.

I do wash them by hand.  My dish washer is old so sometime it break my dishes, I don't want to buy new one.

Both sorta.  If it's a dishwasher safe dish, then it's in the dishwasher, but generally I do a bit of scrubbing before hand to remove the bits of food that may still be on the dishes.  When I'm by myself, I tend to be better at cleaning up, but when you get stuck in a house where no one does dishes, it's hard to keep up the habit.

Most of the time we use a dishwasher. It's only me and my husband in the house, so we usually just keep loading it til it gets full, then run it. But if it's only a couple dishes in the sink, I'll just wash them by hand.

I do the dishes by hand most of the time, and I run the dishwasher if I have a lot of dishes.

I fill up the dishwasher for a couple of days and when it's full I run it. Mostly do pots and some other items by hand.

[gbabesmom]

I wash my own dishes.

Anything that can go in the dishwasher goes in it at my house but the coated pans have to be washed by hand and I always seem to have at least 1 or 2 of those waiting to be hand-washed.

only by hand - haven't seen a dishwasher since 1995 and miss it too!

i do it the old fashion way.  you have to wash them before you put them in the dishwasher or all the gunk won't come off..so why waste all that water and electricity?
