I haven't used my dishwasher or dryer since I moved in to my trailer. Hand washing dishes and hanging clothes to dry doesn't take long enough for me to give a shit lol
But running a dishwasher (if you already have one and use powder and not tabs) is much cheaper in water heating costs than washing by hand.
I think that's only true if you're actually filling the dish washer with dirty dishes. It would take me long enough to fill my dish washer that it would start to stink.
Yeah I live by myself and during the week only cook dinner plus snacks, so it takes me 3+ days to fill it up enough to justify running it and even then it starts it get…iffy.
