There's a right way and a wrong way.

    Exactly! My way is the right way and my husbands way is so the wrong way! I want to cry every time I open the dishwasher to discover he has loaded it. I appreciate that he was thoughtful enough to do it so I always have to bite my tongue so I don't say something mean, but there's so much wasted space!!

    My dishwasher is a Mexican named Alex.


    He always does it the right way. Always.

    The right way prevents interference of spray, nests bowls, and has like items in proximity. The right way includings removing food from the dishes before loading, so you aren't having all the dishes sprayed down with a disgusting stew of food particulate.

    I am just happy if anyone other than me does it - no complaints at my house!

    In my house the rule is I load and unload. Not my rule but we have clean dishes.

    :huh:

    You must have a lot of extra time on your hands to ponder the rules of loading dishes into the dishwasher.

    Read a book.

    it must be a guy thing, my bf always leaves so much wasted space and puts dishes in spots they don't belong. i also have to bite my tongue because at least he did it without me having to ask him.

    I'm really anal about how the dishwasher is loaded. I'll unload everything if I see everything is loaded haphazardly. And then I find the person that committed such a distasteful crime and snip off their toes one by one...

    I just rinse the dishes and leave them because I cannot stand to watch him reload when I am done. Then, an hour later he will have a snack, take that plate over to the dishwasher and rearrange it all again, trying to achieve maximum capacity to exposure ratios. I usually go to bed at that point.

    Hell I'd be happy just to see dishes make it TO the dishwasher.

    I am the only one that can load my dishwasher. It drives me crazy if someone else does it wrong (read:not my way).

    LMAO, we married the same man. I even took a picture a few months ago of his way of loading it(which looked full) and then me reloading it and showing that it was 1/3 full and posted it to facebook.

    Do not get me started on the dirty cups, plates and utensils he leaves on the counter ON TOP of the dishwasher that could have just as easily been put in there. I mean really, you have to leave your peanutbutter knife on the counter when the dishwasher is not only right there, it is open and the rack pulled out?

    So I'm teaching my 12 year old how to do it correctly, and she's not getting it. She just doesn't get the art. Deep sigh.
