Question - Is it better to wash dishes by hand or in a dishwasher?

Answers (1)

That depends on what you mean by "better", and what sort of dishwasher, and maybe a few other things. A machine tends to get the dishes cleaner because of the high temperatures, but the first step in the process is still spraying and scrubbing by hand. Two people can wash thousands of dishes in a machine in the time it takes two people to wash a few dozen dishes by hand. The dishwasher was invented by a wealthy lady because she got tired of the servants breaking her expensive dishes. The average home maker uses a machine just because he/she doesn't know any other way.
