[Michele]

Do you have one? Yes

How often do you turn it on? Every night before I go to bed

Will you turn it on when it is half-full? No

Do you unload it immediately? I unload when I get up, so not immediately when it is done, but it is the first thing I do

Do you have more dishes because of the dishwasher (eg more glasses)? I don't, but I think Scott uses more glasses b/c of that, I use one glass all day, but he'll use 2 or 3 from the time he gets home from work until he goes to bed.

Do you sometimes wash dishes by hand? Only pots that need scrubbing, and wine glasses that don't fit in the dishwasher.

How often? As needed

Do you have one? Yes, however, it doesn't work, and hasn't since we moved in (I tried it once almost a year after moving there for the first time, and it leaked everywhere).
How often do you turn it on? I don't...see above! :lol:
Will you turn it on when it is half-full? N/A
Do you unload it immediately? N/A
Do you have more dishes because of the dishwasher (eg more glasses)? N/A
Do you sometimes wash dishes by hand? All the time! And I don't mind (which is why I only discovered that the dishwasher didn't work a year into living there)...I used to hate unloading the dishwasher more than I hate doing dishes, apparently! :lol:
How often? At least twice a day...I can't stand seeing (dirty) dishes sitting in the sink, so once there's a few, I'll fill the sink up with soap and water, and either let them soak for a bit, or wash them.

Do you have one? Yes

Will you turn it on when it is half-full? No
Do you unload it immediately? Every morning
Do you have more dishes because of the dishwasher (eg more glasses)? No
Do you sometimes wash dishes by hand? Pots and pans mostly because I have All Clad and I don't think the d/w is good for them... also cookie sheets or big items b/c they take up way too much room and the d/w is full at the end of every day
How often? Whenever I use them I wash them immediately or give them a soak if needed.

We don't have one in this house. It sucks!
