Still waiting for the link to this exact one
vincerevelmori1
I literally bought this exact set up after the last time I saw this meme
MacallanNeat
But then I can’t 1000-yard-stare out the window and have a mid-dishes existential crisis

How do you get the knives out without knocking out a bowl?
RuffleMyFluffles
I use my dishwasher as a drying rack...
samsoniteson2000
I would struggle getting those knives out
cre8majic
You're an adult when you have separate sponges for 'counter tops' and 'Floor/other'
airen
@op i would love this but my husband and I have competing views of ‘good’ dishes n bowls. I love ceramic n he likes plastic
squirreltactics
Not really, I own a dishwasher. She's pretty great.
ArmyStrings
As long as all of your dishes are the perfectly right size.

Shits going to get in the way when I'm filling up a pot for spaghetti.
metroid2
Or worse when you are pouring out the boiling water of the cooked spaghetti.
leepupjax
I bought it, I too was amazed, its too big to fit under my cabinets. I am now sad.

Help me find it for wife?
ChipperCorgi
The first time I saw this on imgur I got so excited I ran out and bought one. And yes, it's awesome.
Schoonbot
I can't find them, wife and I have been looking
ChipperCorgi
I probably shouldn't help, but this is the one I got - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XXTY1XT - a bit $$$ but perfect for a tiny apartment
AlexandraIce
me too. I love it
DungeonMaster69
This is a standard in every Finnish home. Except it's a cabinet above the sink and not a rack.
acuppalife
I would definitely hit my head on that
z0MgIrt3hSt0N3CRv5h3rFr0mt3x4S
yeah as a tall dude no thanks.
ReDoctored
My thoughts exactly
dejavu85308
I mean... you could dry them and put them away.
hippiedan2121
You can what now?
ControversialLeftistLesbian
Put them away and then dry them. Easy.
FontaineIsBestDoggo
true... but we won't
Rawmeat95
ehhhidunno
Goddamit beat me to it!!!
VitaminJay
Dripdrying is fine, and you don't spend excess energy on cleaning a dishcloth.
dejavu85308
If that is really your argument... that drying one more towel with the laundry is an energy efficiency issue a/c and heat are also luxuries
VitaminJay
Copperbrat
I actually hate this. Dry your dishes and put them in a cupboard. No dust, splatter, grease film, etc.
nopi
That's what I was thinking too!! And as someone with butcher block countertops... you would NOT let shit drip all over the counter like that
Copperbrat
It's one of the things I'd hate about tiny house living or living abroad. Those tiny, minimalist kitchens. I like my obnoxious 1/
Copperbrat
American kitchen with room to store stuff and half an acre of ultra durable, easy to clean countertops. 2/2
aFadingMemory
As someone with butcher block countertops you probably have a functional kitchen. This is good for storage in small modest kitchens.
DexPumpkinGod
Fffffffffuck all that. I like my window. I like my visual space. And I like open space around one of the primary devices in the kitchen.
cookiesfordinner
You have a window in your kitchen
IDownvoteUnsaucedPosts
Well look at Fancy Pants Mgee over here with their WINDOW. Sheesh!
TychoTychoAlba
The chopsticks ain't dryin' any time soon, there's no drainage for the chopping board, the knives are OVER THE SINK, and... fruit? Nonsense.
brianthefly
Not to mention, youd definitely be hitting your head and hands on those racks all the time. Its way too closed-in.
MidoryMoon
Every time I see this, I think 'That's a horrible place for knives'
alfmeister6227
Me too. Getting them in and out a nightmare. Its way too claustrophobic around the sink area also, if that’s the right word to use.
OrkieBleu
How do you get them out?
TechnicolorCheeseWedge
Also, how are you supposed to wash them when you can't get to the sink properly?
electronicbovine
Yes, wouldn't want sink water to splash up onto my clean knives
Zerod
right? and also. how the hell u suppose to draw them out?
Shigbeard
Maybe rotate it 45 degrees, blade edge downwards.
SlasherQuan
You're a horrible place for knives. See words hurt, also knives.
genericname2107
Terrible for European knives, disastrous for high end Japanese knives. They need to be dried immediately after washing and toweled down.
kevbot5000
I have this thing, it is great. The knives are very much not in the way. Still have all 10 fingers, highly recommend.
TheGiantIdiotTeddyBear
Magnet strip for the win
NekoMiko06
that strip better have wooden veneer so that it doesn't scratch your knives.
VirtualKitsune
why are you sliding your knifes when they are hung up?
AFistfulOfDollHairs
I think it’s photoshop
RaZorHamZteR
Beezlebubble
Yeah hard to get to. Put them to the side
HeywouldJablowme
Dude, same.
ImAnActionBirb
And every time you wash something and lift it up to put it on this rack, all that water that’s going to run down your sleeves.... *shudders*
sitarhero
"One more thing in my kitchen I gotta clean."
worddodger
Dry and hang immediately after use. No exceptions.
aFadingMemory
I feel like this is intended to double as storage, for very small kitchens.
whooptydoo
Stainless steel, polymer or stabilized wood handle. Perfectly fine to air dry
euphoricopportunity
Leave in filth for a week, run through dishwasher.
dimethyltrip
Yeah I learned this from my mother she will freak out if anyone puts her knives in a drying rack
BreadXD
I've put my knives in a drying rack for a very long time now. What's so bad?
Grendelsgrin
They are dull and inexpensive.
Itchy73
Nothing. Its fine for common knives made of modern stainless steel.
Itchy73
Especially if you keep them reasonably sharp.
dimethyltrip
My mom's knives are old and have wooden handles so if they don't get immediately dried and put away they would get damaged
Kodaxmax
like you could wash dishes in those tiny sinks anyway
vikinin
Oi I just pile items on the windowsill until they're cool and then wash and STACK them PROPERLY on the dryer. Fits plenty!
Kodaxmax
you can't even sit those knives in straight
vikinin
Yeah the knives should have their own custom container, not sth cramped like this one
NojudgementMaybeJustalittle
Tiny sinks? The hell kinda fancy ass bathtub lookin mf sinks you got? I aint even got one of them fancy double sinks
Kodaxmax
The right hand tub could barley fit one plate lying down, how are you even gonna half submerge a frypan?
NojudgementMaybeJustalittle
Scrub half at a time, or just do the splishy splashy for not so great results
JungleMang
Ngl, I'm thrilled by the thought of the counter space I can now free up.
nonesuchplace
My folks got one, and I was immediately jealous.
tjgg
We recently got one of these too. It is great since no one likes to put away dishes and the counter stays usable. Plus it looks good full
RyanOfAthens
But how can I see the birds at my bird feeders?
NekoMiko06
have you ever considered using a loft bed to maximize usable floor space in your room.
aFadingMemory
I got one for my kid with a desk under it for distance learning this year. It's amazing! And her room stays so much cleaner.
NekoMiko06
fuck yeah, productivity hacks.
karbon14
I thought so too, but turns out I can’t get one wide enough for my sink and drying rack.
JungleMang
DeezNutzInUrButtz
I have this and love it!!
Moonmoon409
I also have a similar one that I love! Mine is high enough that as long as I don't leave handles pointing outward, washing is easy.
TechnicolorCheeseWedge
How does the washing part work? Doesn't it block the sink?
DeezNutzInUrButtz
It is pretty high so it doesn’t block the sink at all. Mine fit perfectly too
xRAINxOFxBLOODx
Seems fairly high up and only takes up half of the length of the sink.
PleaseLeave
In Finland we have this thing called dish cabinet, thats above the sink
eggplant42
We do too. This is just for drying, not storage
OmniverseDayDreamer
That's normal in Asia too
Mactheman
That is like in every home and office kitchens.
aFadingMemory
Don't lie, you ripped that off from Sweden. We have Ikea here too /s
Suomijuusto89
Ikea is like Apple and China, spying and stealing others work
aFadingMemory
That's why the /s... IT WAS A JOKE.
turtlefarm
Apparently not: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dish_drying_cabinet
aFadingMemory
You know what /s means right?
antivaxtumblrvegan
See, that's interesting, cos that means your sinks aren't usually under the window. Non-Scandinavians tend to like to look out of (1/2)
antivaxtumblrvegan
the window and grumble about the kids hanging around the busstop ("youth of today" etc) whilst we wash the dishes. I assume (2/3)
antivaxtumblrvegan
Scandinavians don't do this because 1) its dark half the year and 2) a sink too close to the window causes the water to instantly freeze.
newrae
Also 3) if you can see the neighborhood kids from your window, your neighbors are living too close to you.
antivaxtumblrvegan
As the occupant of a Victorian terrace house, yes, they are.
Aspecti
I'd say it's more because we don't like to waste space, and splashing dishwater at a window daily sounds dumb. Our windows are insulated.
arcenlapin
I didn't realize washing dishes required spraying your windows as well.
antivaxtumblrvegan
I know. I was jesting. Triple glazed. The first backdraft fires were encountered up your way because your houses are so well insulated.
newrae
2) this is not true because we also are very fond of 2-3 x glazing and good insulation. Unlike the British.
antivaxtumblrvegan
I know. I was joshing. Scandinavian insulation is so good at creating seals/vacuums, that's where the first backdraft fires were witnessed.
njkckbxr
And while you are washing and rinsing are the dishes you put in the rack dripping all over you?
bubblebreathdragon
And then what about reaching up to put them there while all that water from your hands keeps dribbling along your arm.
jenniii
Yeah that's my biggest issue with this as well lolll
76000BatteryLlamas
Are you afraid your hands will get wet? While washing the dishes?
sweetlittlebee
Shorty here, I would be afraid that the whole upper half of me would end up wet.
likehelly
tbh the whole upper half of me gets soaked anyways.
njkckbxr
No, I would want water to drip all over my sleeves and countertop.
Onsvaltti
Roll up your sleeves ??♂️
safespacesnowflake
You misread, he WANTS the drips on his sleeves and countertops.
LurkerOfDarkness
And roll up his countertop?
Onsvaltti
Sure, if he is Popeye?
njkckbxr
So that water drips down my arms to my rolled up sleeves.
Onsvaltti
Take the shirt off.
Lynkfox
You ... do known you're supposed to dry dishes before putting them on any kind of drying rack... right?
FloatingOnACloudOfTitties
No, you're not. Kinda defeats purpose of DRYING RACK!
v
safespacesnowflake
My missus makes me wash the dishes nearly all the way clean before I’m allowed to put them in the dishwasher.
SnarlyTangles
Wha???
Lynkfox
Not like... totally dry, but get most of the water that would drip and mildew your drying mat off...
sweetlittlebee
No let your dishes drip dry a bit in the drying rack then dry them and towel off your drying mat. That way your towel doesn't get as wet.
sweetlittlebee
The other way is weird unless you leave them in your rack and don't put them away. It's wasted motions.
sweetlittlebee
Just not as efficient.
njkckbxr
Please enlighten me. I clearly don’t understand the purpose of a drying rack.
RubyPorto
This is why you skip the drying mat and use a kitchen towel. Once your dishes are dry, hang the towel to dry. Then toss it in the laundry.
RubyPorto
(I mean using a dish towel as a drying mat)
njkckbxr
I should take a towel and dry my dishes before putting them into the drying rack?
SnarlyTangles
I should take a towel and cover the dishes in the drying rack? So they don't get dusty. BWAHAHA
qweesdy
Screw that - wash 'em, put them on the drying rack, then come back the next day and use the dishes again straight from the rack.
majorkira9
Same concept for clothes. Just pull a wrinkled mess from the clean laundry basket. Boom, no folding needed.
SnarlyTangles
Energy efficiency.
76000BatteryLlamas
I don't think you know what a drying rack is
commentsivehadafew
What thrilled me as a young adult was getting a dishwasher
Fraud124
Im looking forward to the day I get to remodel a kitchen, there will be two dishwashers that each take turn being clean and dirty.
SophiesMum
Yeah me too, but my mum wouldn’t use it unless we had company! So my brother & I STILL had to do the dishes! ?
poorwhitetrash
My dishwasher is also a laundry machine! God I love my wife!
umbrellamaker
I tried to get a dishwasher...in March...2020...the supply chain was so fucked by the...everything I only got it in October
TheGriffin
I'm 30. I still don't have one
EiraObsidian
That thrilled me as a child. Our parents bought one for me and my siblings for Christmas and we were grateful.
NotTinyPancakes
I dream of those had em as a kid now as an adult...I restor to paper towels and plates

ForeverGratefulinVT
Just moved into a house with one and it feels like a BIG deal
Daxton
Protip apartment people. Search "countertop dishwasher", they go used on Marketplace for $100-200. You're welcome!
Daxton
I bought myself one for xmas last year. Best. Decision. Ever. (other than the bidet during March)
Marine0311
I was the dishwasher since i was 7, my little brother was the dryer. When my mom remarried and we moved into his house, he had a dishwasher.
Marine0311
it was glorious, i was 13 at the time. Any hand washing was done by my step sister or my sister. Boys did yard work, trash and other chores.
jaydawgx7
And not have your dishes keep dripping on your stainless steel sink leaving water spots. What happened to me, why do I know this?
IUpvoteLOTRMemes
Steel scrubby is your friend
NotTinyPancakes

mymidlifecrisiswasat23
That’s no way to talk about your SO
DreadCarcass
How the hell did this comment make it and mine saying the same thing with different words get removed?
mymidlifecrisiswasat23
Probably because you said the same thing with different words
DreadCarcass
"Congrats on the wife" set a mod off. It wasnt worse than this
mymidlifecrisiswasat23
I said “great tits” once and got it. So I share your frustration

What happened here..?
DreadCarcass
Imgur pucketted me. I made a very very obvious lighthearted joke an woke up to a warning
Teasaurus
"congrats on the wife" was the comment
redsmerf
Someone reported it, and the "Oh, got married?" comment. Someone without a sense of humor.
Krasnopeev
I hate dishwashers. I end up washing the dishes 90% of the way and then putting them in. Might as well spend another 5 seconds to finish
Therealprendi
Over stuffing..
TheGriffin
5 seconds is more than I need
usernamemustbe4characterslonng
Your dishwasher sucks.
GamerZakh
I just put all the dishes in and they come out 100% clean. Covered in oil and stuff. Best buy of 2019 for me. What's wrong with yours?
Krasnopeev
Nothing. Management has came twice. Newer model as well. Also made my electricity and water bill go up way high but this place sucks anyways
Krasnopeev
Lol downvotes probably from my apartment complex management.
Krasnopeev
When I moved in toilets were dirty as hell, appliances and ground fake wood tile were dirty. Doors sucked
Targe0
Likely an old pump or clogged drain. Or they may just suck at stacking their dishes for water flow.
Krasnopeev
Nah the machine probably is defective but my complex doesn't want to replace. They checked twice said nothing wrong
GamerZakh
Yeah sounds like the machine is broken from what you've said. Dishwashers are supposed to use less water too.
