      I have a dishwasher because everyone told me I just HAD to have one. I actually hate dishwashers. I still wash my dishes by hand. My dishwasher has become extra storage for pots and pans :)

        Many people may think I'm strange, but I actually like washing dishes. It was one of my first chores as a kid, and I'd rather just clean them by hand to this day.

          Like to wash my own dishes. I feel safer that way!

            They may be revolting, 62% of dishwashers are rebelling against their owners.

              I use bleach in every wash... Wonder if that helps?

                Sounds like a good idea Jenn.

                I am my own dishwasher as is my husband. Neither one of us is out to kill the other one. A whole lot safer than one of those comtraptions.

                  Most dishwashers contain black yeast or harmful fungi that can cause lung infections, if people aren't checking out the website. It is a funny question and I thank you all for the laugh, thumbs up.

                    There is a new study out that has found that 62% of dishwashers have dangerous fungi, that may have serious health effects.

                      People just assume dishwashers sterilize themselves. Just like anything else, a dishwasher has to be cleaned and sterilized on occasion. People have gotten lazy with all the modern conveniences.

                        Heck I do not even know if the damn thing works I think it would be best if I did not put styrofoam plates in it to find out.
