Today’s post isn’t about decorating or traveling, but it is an important PSA in my opinion. We have been in our home nine months now, and I think the number one question we get from visitors is,\u00a0 “Oohh…. ahh…… You have a two-drawer dishwasher.\u00a0 Do you love it?”\u00a0 I think every time at the same time Yankee and I always say, “No, we hate it.”<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Yankee,\u00a0had the opportunity to use some of his paternity leave when we arrived home from Thailand with our Little Miss.\u00a0 He was home for almost two weeks, and she was pretty much in my arms the whole time and unsure of so many things. \u00a0Yankee took his role seriously by helping out around the house.\u00a0 He did a lot of dishes, and we both discovered that we have a definite opinion about our two-drawer dishwasher.\u00a0 We thought it might be helpful to write a review of a drawer dishwasher in case you are thinking about buying one or have been wondering about them.<\/h3>\n

\"Review<\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

When we bought this house, it was ten years old.\u00a0 The previous owners had it custom built, and they hand selected all of the appliances.\u00a0 One of the things they chose was a two-drawer dishwasher made by Kitchenaid.\u00a0 Instead of a door opening and dropping down, our dishwasher has two drawers that pull out just like a cabinet drawer.\u00a0 In a nut shell, Yankee and I do not like the dishwasher for several reasons. (On a side note I didn’t know we even had a dent in the dishwasher till I uploaded this photo on the computer.<\/em>)<\/h3>\n

It’s size is the same as a standard dishwasher, but it has a lot less space for dishes.\u00a0\u00a0 We can barely fit dishes from one meal into one of the drawers, and each drawer has its own motor that works independently of the other.\u00a0 That means we have to run both units through a cycle to get all of our dishes clean.<\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

Plus, each unit has a standard sized slot for dishwasher detergent.\u00a0 That means we are using twice as much detergent in order to wash the same amount of dishes.\u00a0 We both feel as if we are spending way too much time loading and emptying the dishwasher.\u00a0 Our time is valuable now, and we don’t like spending it like this.<\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

We both know this is definitely a first-world problem, but we thought you might want to rethink your choice if you are considering buying a new dishwasher in the near future. \u00a0This would\u00a0be one appliance we would be okay with if it died sooner rather than later. \u00a0It works, so there is no need to replace it, but boy, we do not like it.<\/h3>\n

Looks like Gracie is even over this drawer dishwasher. Do you have an appliance that you are hoping kicks the can soon?<\/h3>\n
