aaa water rated dishwasher love
Really? I only use one small sink's worth of water to get through about two days' worth of dishes. I don't use many dishes anyway. When I had a dishwasher in Brisbane, I'd find I only needed to put it on every third day, and even then only for a half load! (That was when my flatmate was away, in any case.) Now that felt like a waste of water.
