I got a tiny kitchen
But I do have a bunch of cupboard space I honestly don't need.... So how small do dishwashers get? I don't need a full size one - like washing machine sized one, so do they do half sized?
I live on my own and don't generate that much washing up - 6 plates, 4 or 5 glasses/mugs, couple bowls and a handfull cutlery a week I'd say, and yeah I could wash em up but I HATE washing up - and I mean I REALLY hate it!!!!!! PLus I am shit at it. Stuff is clean but it don't look it (water marks on the plates/cutlery etc)
How expensive are dishwashers to run?

yes mate half sized, I was looking at one but it would be a pain in the arse to get it plumbed in
I also HATE washing up, hence the cupboards are now empty and the work tops full of dirty stuff
Dont cost that much to run as you run em in the night

Trip to some home leccy shops coming on soon then 
Wanna get my oven and hob ripped out too and replaced with gas - god I HATE leccy oven + hob!!!!!
So thining if I get round to doing that, which would mean having the units out, then might be an idea to have dishwasher fitted....

didnt know that as i never read your posts
Anyways you said you got a 50cm wide one..the slimlines are usually 450mm wide and go in a 500mm cupboard with a gap at either side...for some strange reason...

We have a Fisher and Paykel Drawer one which is the width of a standard cup board door but only half the height (we have our pan draw under it). It is fine for 2 people and takes us a couple of days to fill it.
