Honestly, dishwashers are amazing. I've rented a bunch of different and when I rented a place without a dishwasher, I thought it'd be no big deal. No way. Dishwasher is so worth it. I refuse to rent a place that doesn't have a dishwasher (and in-suite laundry -- shared laundry is also a pain).

Doesn't work well with casserole dishes with baked on food. Gotta still soak those.

Get a proper brush and it does.

Those 'stuck' bits are not nearly as stuck on when they're fresh.

My kitchen is too small for a dishwasher and the plumbing sucks. Lose water pressure when doing laundry 😭

The kind of dishwasher I have might actually be a good fit for you! It's pretty small and on wheels, it hooks up to the sink faucet to run, and it has a countertop that's pretty useful on its own as a moveable kitchen island

What is it? 😯

I'm not sure where my landlord got it, but if you search "portable dishwasher" it should put you on the right trail

No need to scrub them most of the time. Technology Connections's tip of putting some detergent outside of the dispenser seems to help a little.

I have one thing that I've found needs to be scrubbed (a cup shaped thing that will have cake on egg), but almost everything else seems to get cleaned perfectly.

Like basically be messy with the dishwasher detergent when putting it in that little trap door?
