But surely you rinse first? This is the key to long dishwasher life imo.Originally Posted by PSRB
Be a lot easier if people (wife and child) put the dirty stuff in the dishwasher rather then in the sink, so that I don't then have to move it to where it should go in the 1st place!
Your attitude to dishwashers is on the screaming maniac side of OCD.
in my household I have to ensure that no water is left in the sink or on the draining board as it drives someone crazy
then at the same time I get moaned at if it use excessive paper towel.
Yeah? Well of the two of us, which one has a working dishwasher, eh? Tell me that.
QED imo.
Yes, rinse and then place in dishwasher. Not leave in the sink for me to rinse!!
incorrect, you shouldn't need to rinse on modern washers... it will be the crap hard water down there that finishes it off

Actually, I do have a water softening system thingy, which might explain it.
Is there any chance that you might be able to post on a thread one day without doing the whole professional northerner thing?
(Actually, I have just had an electro-magnet thing installed on the boiler that is supposed to help protect the boiler and washing machine from the hard water.)
A wee bit like hosing down your car before you take it to the carwash surely.
Not really. There are enclosed spaces and plumbing going on, which raises the question of what happens to all the gunk and crap? I have bad memories of visiting my dear parents' house where rinsing does not happen and the glasses seem to have bits of last week's dinner attached to them.
In my home the dishwasher has never worked and I have washed up by hand for the last ten years.
