Well, ...I'd never heard about the water temp thing! Well, I'll remove that tip then, just in case. This is the dishwasher we chose for the in-laws. I'm a big big fan of the drawer style because you can do small loads. I'm sure you can find much cheaper ones than this tho. <BR/><BR/>http://www.ajmadison.com/cgi-bin/ajmadison/KUDD01D.html<BR/><BR/>You can also buy single dishdrawers, so you could add storage underneath!<BR/><BR/>Dishwashers make the same impact as handwashing, and I freakin' hate washing dishes by hand, and if it's not greener, then why waste the time? IMHO. ;-)Carly Fayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01525528757325109350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8143074039178514645.post-87252343476747878922007-02-12T09:52:00.000-08:002007-02-12T09:52:00.000-08:00Oooooh!

Look at this guy:<BR/><BR/>http://www.universal-akb.com/majeiicopodi.html<BR/><BR/>I forgot to mention, our new house doesn't have a dishwasher, but it has the space for one...hmmm. That little guy should fit just fine. I'm almost considering going without a dishwasher and putting a little kitchen stand in the divet (sp?) available. I could use more counter space. The cupboards are so retro and they are down so low! You can fit a microwave beneath them perfectly probably. So, no blenders out on the counters then ; )*Dani*https://www.blogger.com/profile/10031042892865700673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8143074039178514645.post-5902305375086587862007-02-12T09:48:00.000-08:002007-02-12T09:48:00.000-08:00Great article Carly!

The one thing I wanted to note, however (because it came up in the green living forum on mdc) is that it's not a good idea to turn your hot water heater down that low. It needs to be at least 135 (I think- google to make sure!). There is a germ that can grow in the colder waters and give you this horrible disease, although I don't remember what it is called. I'm useful, eh? All I know is to leave the hot water tank up- hee hee.*Dani*https://www.blogger.com/profile/10031042892865700673noreply@blogger.com
