If you hand wash your dishes for more than 2 minutes, using a dishwasher actually uses less water.

If the dishwasher isn’t doing a good job cleaning them, you probably did one of these things wrong:

• Didn’t run sink until it hit hot water

• Didn’t use powdered detergent

• Didn’t put powdered detergent in the pre wash slot

• Didn’t load the dishwasher properly

• Didn’t clean the filter

This video gave me a new appreciation on how these appliances work and showed me how to actually use them effectively!
