Now prove to me with science (like I just did) why washing dishes with your hand is better :). Then you can call the writer of the article retarded. I’m an engineer, so your reasons better be empirically verifiable.

Like I replied earlier: You waste a lot more water washing dishes by hand. Many homeowners believe they’re helping the environment and reducing their water bill by washing dishes the old-fashioned way rather than using a dishwasher. Nothing could be further from the truth.

2 reasons why this happens. 1 is because you don’t clean your filter on a monthly basis. Another is because you are not using good detergent. Powdered detergent works much better than capsules or liquid detergent. Just be sure to keep the powdered detergent in a dry area and not a damp area like under the sink.
