I wanted to put a rack for those dishwasher trays into a regular cupboard, so that we could have basically a real dishwasher for dirty stuff, and a cupboard for clean stuff so that we never have to empty it.
My husband Veto'd it, because "that's the epitome of laziness". Which I think is exactly the point, but whatever. It's his job to empty the dishwasher now, which solves the problem too.
Do you mean like this?

It's basically in every kitchen in Finland, and has spread somewhat to the other Nordic countries, but is apparently rare elsewhere.
No, I mean those dishwasher drawers you have in there? You should be able to take those and just slide them into a regular cupboard. You out empty ones in the dishwasher, and over time you fill those when you use the dishes.

Thats a pathetic little kitchen faucet. Real grownups use professional multi-spray kitchen faucets with removable head and swivel action...
Oh yeah baby that's it
I just bought my first home and immediately decided my first upgrade was to a faucet like this...
I think I need a new username haha

This looks like to make cleaning large pans or baking sheets unnecessarily difficult.
The knives look like a pain to load and remove though
Yup. Also: I'm tall, so now I can't see everything that's in the sink. It also needs some kind of anti-tip measure if the suggested use is to keep heavy dishes up high like that. Also, I'm not convinced this is sanitary - are we gonna get raw-chicken-water-splashback onto clean plates?

Damn everyone hates this. I liked mine, but to each their own
I don't like the execution, but it's good in concept
Maiju Gebhard (September 15, 1896, in Helsinki – July 18, 1986, in Helsinki) was a Finnish inventor who invented the dish drying cabinet as the head of the household department at the Finnish Work Efficiency Institute in 1944 and 1945. She was the only child of economist Hannes Gebhard and politician Hedvig Gebhard.
I love this concept. The big problem is that a lot of American kitchens are (weirdly) modeled after old farmhouses where the sink was always under the one window in the whole room. The trend is absolutely hostile to this idea.

That would cause me so much claustrophobia at the sink i would stop washing dishes.
It's the double sink that gets me. I've lived in places with a double sink. I do not have a double sink right now.
I need double sink in my life.
Use the poor man's replacement plastic tub.
This is the way. Double sinks suck. With this you have a double when you need, but can also waeh big things like oven sheets.

I’ve showed my mother things like this once and she was very not at all excited at the idea of one in our kitchen.

Except it won't look so pretty and also I can't imagine using the dispensers without taking them out of that thing unless it's VERY rigid.
You think my ADHD ass is ever unloading a drying rack? The dishes would just live there and I’d always be cramming new ones into it.
If only we had some technology that could dry a dish immediately and didn’t take up tons of space or grow mold… like some kind of flexible, absorbent material that sucks up the water? We should have NASA work on it

We have one of these! Saw a pic on Reddit and had it delivered within a week. We actually use it all the time for things that shouldn’t go in the dishwasher. A few things:
- They’re expandable, so they can go over single and double sinks.
- They’re generally made of “just strong enough” metal, to the shelves sag. Have had some heavy stuff on there, so it’s still pretty solid.
- It never looks anywhere near this organized.
- Stuff stays on it way longer than necessary, but it does eventually get put away… when we have company over.
