Here you go. It’s gross!
Dammit, I had shit to do and instead watched a half an hour video about dishwashers.
Worth.
There are, in fact, several more hours worth of dishwasher content from the same channel. Doubly worth it
Wash it down with several hours worth of content on heat pumps. It’s worth it.
Was expecting Steve Mould but I take Technology Connections.
Date idea: a nice dinner, followed by the feature-length Technology Connections Dishwasher Anthology
If this is your idea of a good date… If you’re a gay man, I’ll marry you.
I said it as a joke, but honestly…cooking something together with a special someone then sharing a bottle of wine that guy absolutely roasts the very concept of detergent pods sounds like a great night
Doesn’t it? I really want this in my life. I don’t know anyone IRL that likes that sort of thing D:
That’s one of very few channels that both me and my brother in law share. We often ask each other if we follow one channel or another. He made a comment about Christmas light colour that made me ask
I feel like I prefer Technology Connections. Steve Mold never seems to go into all the details
Saw this post, instantly thought “Technology Connections”, am not disappointed by the comments here.
I got a new dishwasher that has a “glass front door”. I paid extra for the glass door for this reason - I want to see it. But guess what - hahaha - the glass door is simply placed over metal and you can’t see shit.
THEY DON’T WANT US TO SEE!!!
wtf. like it’s a window to a wall, or like glass back phones?
Obviously, the dishwasher manufacturers don’t want us to know about the gnomes.
Gnomes with cleaning equipment.And when your dishes don’t get very clean, that’s because the gnomes partied a bit too hard the night before and just aren’t up to their normal standards.
Hmm. That’s also a great name for a punk band. Dishwasher Gnomes.
Going to trademark that right now.Dishwater Gnomes
Cover songs of 90s alternative at x2.5 speed and an octave higher.
It’s not the fact that the gnomes exist! It’s how they’re treated, down with big dishwasher!
No not punk. It would combine 80s one hit wonder songs with 2010s hipster southern folk.
They don’t want you to see the tongues licking the dishes
there’s a little gnome that lives in mine to lick them clean. charges exorbitant prices though.
My tabletop dishwasher has a window. It looks fun in there. Splishy splashy.
Table… top… dishwasher? What sorcery is this?
Gaze upon my works and despair
That’s so cute! But… I can’t imagine what I could remove from my kitchen to make room for that. I’d love to add a rice cooker but there’s no room for that either .
The kind of thing you’d have in a small apartment where there is no space for a big one and you’re single or a couple and don’t have a lot of dishes to fill a big one with anyway.
Watching food cook is appetizing and also a necessity to know when it is done. Watching the slurry of fat, food rests and soap is not.
Then why do washing machines for clothes have windows?
Pretty colors spin round make fun watch
What are you doing with your clothes? Mine are rarely covered with fat, grease or food.
Then you ain’t livin, pal.
They didn’t back in my day.
To check the progress before electric displays and fancy indicator lights. Windows came before those upgrades when machines were still dial controlled.
But they still have windows. Plus I think old fashioned top loading ones didn’t actually.
Because people liked the feature. Look, I’m just saying WHY they added windows. That was the reason. I’m not saying it’s a good reason or no one could figure things out before. They added them for that reason, people liked it, and it stuck around. Yet, there’s always gonna be someone dragging out their 30 year old washer going “but mine is fine!”. Never said it wasn’t. Or someone pointing out that not all washers have a window even today. Cool. Nifty. But if yours does have one, that was the reason they got added.
That’s what I still use and it does not. I have zero reason to know what’s going on inside however because it literally operates on the equivalent of a kitchen egg timer. It’s done when the dial says it’s done. All controls are entirely mechanical. Washing machine is older than I am. I bet the damn thing is 50 years old.
Edit: Same as this one which seems to be a model from the 70s.

Congrats on having an ancient machine with no variable timing that finishes early and being able to look in tells you what step it’s on easily at a glance instead of staring at your worn away knob. Good for you. Was it relevant at all to the discussion about why they added windows to machines that do?
Yes, it was relevant to the comment I replied to. It was an off topic segue that’s common in the nature of what we call threaded discussions. That you feel you should copy and paste your response as if it’s a personal attack to you or your argument is quite perplexing, but everybody’s got their own way of seeing the world yeah?
Also, the thing is actually controlled by the knob’s timer. There’s no such thing as finishing early, the knob is what tells it to do a rinse cycle or whatever. You can set it at different points in order to make it do different things and it ticks away along it’s cycle because of that. You hit switches to change the amount of water you use and select different start times based on the soiling and load size. It’s pretty rad for a dinosaur, though you do have to make decisions that you might not have to make with an electronic high efficiency washer.
Mine has a window, but if you saw something through the window that made you want to intervene, there’s precious little you could do
Maybe for you. They put windows on cloths machines and people watch the heck out of those, let me watch the dishes clean.
My dishwasher has a window. It’s a lot of water spraying everywhere.
Thats what big dishwasher wants you to think, they put the fake window to hide the dishwashing gnomes from the public eye. Wake up sheeple
OH FUCK
i bet it’s mostly because it’s fucking nasty in there.
Not in full swing but generally this shows you whats happening
I instantly thought of that video myself.
goofy ah minds think alike
Oh my god, thank you for this channel. I have found a new thing to binge
The only thing I remember about Stewart Little, beyond him being a mouse, is that in the movie he gets trapped in the dishwasher and he is only saved because the family has a dishwasher with a glass front.
For some reason that scene has stuck in my head for 25 years. And I swear its because of their weird glass-front dishwasher that is just so out of place.
I’m sorry to say, but that was a washing machine…

You have unblocked a great memory of my youth, however. Thanks!
The dishwasher continues to remain a mystery then 🤔
My whole life is a lie!

Ovens have glass. And in my experience get much hotter than dishwashers.
Dishwashers need to be water-tight, ovens don’t…
Ovens don’t have a bunch of high pressure water sprayers in them. They just leak hot air at worst.
‘Just hot air’ is a bit of an understatement. Mine goes to 500°C during a cleaning cycle. It physically locks the door so you can’t open it when it does this. My dishwasher I can open at any time.
How does that differ from current metal door?
Mainly brown water would be my guess, they an keep it to themselves.
You might be interested in MinuteFood’s video on dishwashers. No clear viewing panel, but she stuck a GoPro in one. https://youtu.be/_haQLmfoWxI?si=6g3S7tix70bDdPhZ
We have a counter top dishwasher. It has a window. It’s not that interesting though.
Yup, was coming to comment the same. Mine has one too, it’s just not very interesting or even necessary to see.
