I’d assume it isn’t see through because you load it up with dirty dishes that sit for days before you run it. No one wants to spend days staring at the crusty spoon meemaw dipped in the peanut butter and licked like an ice cream cone before the wash is finally run
who the fuck lets dirty dishes sit in there for days lol
People who don’t make a lot of dirty dishes? Running a dishwasher that is not full wastes water and energy. When I was single I would only run the dishwasher twice a week or so.
I have twelve dinner plates. Often I’ll use two a day (my partner doesn’t share my allergies or diet and mostly uses bowls)
We have many hot drink mugs
We have twelve sets of cutlery
The dishwasher runs when we run out of clean [plates|cups|cutlery] that is weekly or less often
Modern dishwashers can easily clean tons of crust. That’s why it takes them so long. As long as bigger chunks are gone and you clean the trap you are fine.
You might be interested in MinuteFood’s video on dishwashers. No clear viewing panel, but she stuck a GoPro in one. https://youtu.be/_haQLmfoWxI?si=6g3S7tix70bDdPhZ
Exactly what I was thinking of. 30 Rock is one of the best TV comedies ever. The jokes-per-minute is unrivaled.
Shocked I had to scroll this far to find it.
I bet you it would be the most interesting to see out of all of these.
This video by Technology Connections has a few scenes where you can see one at work.
So amazing to me that this has got to be one of his most popular videos.
Like…this vid went viral as hell. People are passionate about dishwashers. And I get it. There’s a lot of misinformation out there.
Mainly brown water would be my guess, they an keep it to themselves.
Not in full swing but generally this shows you whats happening
I instantly thought of that video myself.
goofy ah minds think alike
Oh my god, thank you for this channel. I have found a new thing to binge
God I fucking hate how they chose to punctuate/capitalize. What the actual fuck? Just use italics if you want to emphasize something, good lord.
Can you use italics on Twitter?
I guess it’s a part of the Twitter Blue sub, but there are workarounds.
My point still stands ‘This is a stupid fucking Way to emphasize things’.
yes, IT, reall,Y is.
My tabletop dishwasher has a window. It looks fun in there. Splishy splashy.
Table… top… dishwasher? What sorcery is this?
The kind of thing you’d have in a small apartment where there is no space for a big one and you’re single or a couple and don’t have a lot of dishes to fill a big one with anyway.
Gaze upon my works and despair
That’s so cute! But… I can’t imagine what I could remove from my kitchen to make room for that. I’d love to add a rice cooker but there’s no room for that.
I have a tiny kitchen but also an appliance addiction. I have an entire folding table dedicated to all my beautiful machines for which I lack counter space, lol
When I lived in a studio with negligible counter space, the portable dishwasher sat atop one of those commercial grade wire rolling racks, which also doubled as shelves for my irresponsible amount of spices
Don’t let lack of counter space stifle your maximalism. Just make more counter space lol
LOL agreed.
I actually got the cheap table tops from IKEA and some adjustable metal legs and I use a weird space where the extra long radiator is and made a counter top out of it.
Making more space is almost always a good idea. And there are lots of ways to do it.
Haha, I love that. Spices are another one of my weaknesses as well. And I’d like nothing more than to do something similar to what you did, actually.
Problem is my wife doesn’t like the aesthetics of my solutions. I’m slowly wearing her down, tho. We went with something that she liked but wasn’t as practical as it should’ve been. She’s realized that it’s not what we we were hoping for and has agreed to change it. Haven’t found anything worthwhile at the obvious stores like Ikea and such so now I’m looking for alternatives.
happy furniture hunting! :]
My dishwasher has a window. It’s a lot of water spraying everywhere.
Thats what big dishwasher wants you to think, they put the fake window to hide the dishwashing gnomes from the public eye. Wake up sheeple
OH FUCK
To show what a dishwasher does, they built one with a large window on the side for childrens television (“Sendung mit der Maus”, German public TV Station ARD). Quite interesting and informative.
I guess you mean this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2X-gwfX4aA
Bonus video: Your dishwasher is better than you think
Exactly that one. Thanks.
The real reason is because dish washer water is freaking filthy until the last spray off.
You don’t want to see that shit and eat off it afterwards.
I don’t see why not.
Dishwasher is regularly recirculating dirty, greasy water before rinsing. In order to save water, it just cycles the water with all the dirt through the dishes again, many times over. And only then rinses with a pure one.
They rinse for like 15 minutes, then pump that off and get new water for the water, pump that off, and get a clean rinse.
I know how dishwasher works. I mean I don’t see why I wouldn’t want to look at that. It is interesting regardless.
Most people prefer ignorance to seeing their flatware get sprayed with filthy water. They’d say “eww that’s disgusting” and hand wash everything from now on.
It’s because of this recirculation that dishwashers consume significantly less water than hand washing.
But people use same water when handwashing too. One sinkful of soapy water first where you wash them, then a sinkful of clean water for rinsing and put them in the drying rack to dry. I believe the significantly is a debatable.
Modern dishwashers have to use less than 5 gallons of water for a normal load. To get the Energy Star rating, that has to be 3 gallons.
A typical two-basin, 33 inch kitchen sink, each basin measures 16in x 14in. Each inch of depth in each basin is approximately 1 gallon. To fill up both basins to a depth of 5 inches, that would take 9.6 gallons, more than 3x more than an Energy Star dishwasher.
So yes, significantly.
An average person doesn’t want to see this and doesn’t know it happens, which would potentially tank the reviews for the device.
exactly
I think it just might be because the seal around the glass would inevitably fail from constant thermal expansion during normal use, thus leaking all over the damn place.
How does that differ from current metal door?
Ovens have glass. And in my experience get much hotter than dishwashers.
Dishwashers need to be water-tight, ovens don’t…
Ovens don’t have a bunch of high pressure water sprayers in them. They just leak hot air at worst.
‘Just hot air’ is a bit of an understatement. Mine goes to 500°C during a cleaning cycle. It physically locks the door so you can’t open it when it does this. My dishwasher I can open at any time.
Fun fact you can hack a self-cleaning oven to use the hellfire temperature of 500 ° F to make good ass thin crust pizza!
you have to figure out how to bypass the door lock, use a pizza stone, and put the pizza as high up in the oven as possible. but you can get a damn good thin crust pizza with enough creative engineering and some experimentation.
recommended to try this project in winter as it dumps loads of heat in the house lol
The author’s unique approach to capitalisation and spacing really makes this.
It makes me wonder if their native language doesn’t have upper/lower letters. Chinese does not, and doesn’t really use spaces the same way we do.
I always automatically assume that a space before a comma means it’s a bot.
I was thinking the same thing. I had to read it out loud to fully understand
They don’t want you to see the tongues licking the dishes
there’s a little gnome that lives in mine to lick them clean. charges exorbitant prices though.
The only thing I remember about Stewart Little, beyond him being a mouse, is that in the movie he gets trapped in the dishwasher and he is only saved because the family for some reason has a dishwasher with a glass front.
For some reason that scene has stuck in my head for 25 years. And I swear its because of their weird glass-front dishwasher that is just so out of place.
I’m sorry to say, but that was a washing machine…
The dishwasher continues to remain a mystery then 🤔
My whole life is a lie!
