Do you use a dishwasher or wash dishes by hand? (sh.itjust.works)

Is there a real difference in water and electricity consumption? Personally, I don't use a lot of water to wash my dishes (by hand), but maybe I should install a flow meter to make sure.

What is your opinion on the subject? Do you have any evidence or studies available that could confirm your intuition? Or do you have other alternatives in mind?

By hand.

One of my first jobs was a KP so I'm used to washing by hand.

Yes we had a dishwasher, had to prewash everything because it was so shit.

Also, never, ever put a chefs knives through the dishwasher.

I wash as I go when cooking because it's much easier and you're not left with a load of minging dirty dishes after a meal

    Helps if you have allergies to food and ingredients too. Hot dishes rinse easily. It's extra steps loading and unloading when you keep a drying rack and rinse your dishes as you go and immediately after eating.
