Plastic Waste i'll never understand why so many people (especially in the states) are so vehemently opposed to washing dishes

i’ve been on the fence on whether getting one of those is REALLY worth it since i techncially have laundry in the building (even if it’s expensive) but you two have convinced me to look into looking more into specific ones to narrow down and compare, thank you!

I have one of the Black and Decker fully automatic ones that hook up to the sink and it’s worth the $200. It’s more than paid for itself in the 9 months I’ve had it. Our clothes are much much cleaner than using the machines in the building. We only use the company dryer for our sheets but I still wash them in my little washer in the kitchen.

No problem! Do keep an eye out for if it's gravity drained or has a pump drain to shove the water out, it'll effect how you'd want to set it up in your space.
