Dishwasher is here!!! 🥳 picked up my leftover dw powder and rinse aid from work, Y-splitter for cold washing machine tap obtained from Bunnings (decided maybe not to risk running it off the hot water tap even though it’d be heaps cheaper - hot water is free at this joint). Somehow fiddled around and got that Y splitter in even though there’s not much room to maneuvre. If there is a small leak I won’t know until it’s quite bad, so hopefully it’s all well-sealed!
Running the first load now after a prelim test run with just water… results tbc, but the amount of space that’s opened up on my benchtop without having to get my hands dirty is phenomenal 😭 I’m pleased to see that I can fit my plastic chopping board on the side. Sadly I can only fit two mugs on the top shelf, but there’s enough space below. I reckon I can fit about 2-3 days worth of dishes which is great because I don’t need to look at shit piling up any more!!! LIFE IS TOO SHORT FOR DISHES

The top rack can be removed and has its own little cutlery trays that are a bit awkward but whatever
Fits just nice on top of the washing machine, my only worry is that sometimes the washing machine vibrates a fair bit so hopefully that won’t shift the dishwasher too much. I suppose I could look at fixing the dw in place with some double sided tape

Oh, looks good! I don’t think I would have had enough space but it looks very nice
