Moder people often don't have time or energy to wash their dishes, and that's when a good dishwasher can come handy.

A dishwasher can clean dishes pretty well, but it might not always be as good as washing them by hand. 

Let's start with the good sides of using a dishwasher regularly.

Convenience

It's easy to load the dishwasher and let it do the work for you.

Efficiency

Dishwashers use hot water and strong detergents, which can be very effective at removing food and grease.

Sanitization

Dishwashers use high temperatures to sanitize dishes, killing germs.

Meanwhile, they also have some disadvantages.

Not Always Perfect

Sometimes, a dishwasher may not remove stuck-on food or stains as well as you can by hand.

Delicate Items

Delicate dishes and some materials (like wooden items) can be damaged in the dishwasher.

Water and Energy Use

Dishwashers use more water and energy than hand washing.

Conclusion

Using a dishwasher can be a brilliant or a generally bad idea - it usually depends on how many dishes you have to wash daily, how big your family is, and how busy you usually are.

While dishwashers aren't always perfect, they still can improve your quality of life significantly, so you can forget about pikes of dirty dishes and just relax.
