No, you can't load the dishwasher

When I say this, it's not because I am nice and want to save you the trouble, it's because you can't do it properly.

It amazes me how many people stick stuff in randomly (wasting large amounts of space) or leave large bits of pasta / whatever on stuff (otherwise known as 'how to block your filter') or put things that shouldn't be in (crystal glass or wood, for example).

The most recent guest - wave :) - was mostly very good but still took the view that it was easier to buy new wood utensils every few months rather than wash them by hand...

Its based on my first experience of being in a house with one, back in the 80s. The owners were rich and took the view that it didn't matter what happened to the wooden stuff (and indeed the crystal) because they'd just buy more. And yes, the crystal clouded and the wood stuff split within months.

Whether that's because of the sort of wood involved, or higher temperatures involved (this dishwasher is cooler than the one we got in London seven or eight years ago) I don't know, but...

OK then, I accept you have a relevant 2p :-)
