Back to the Future: Power Dishwashers!
10th January 2024
Why do today’s dishwashers typically take more than 2 hours to run through a normal cycle when less than a hour was common in the past? The reason is absurd energy and water “conservation” rules. These rules, imposed on dish and clothes washers, have made these products perform worse than in the past, cleaning less well or much more slowly. One of the best things that the Trump administration did (other than Operation Warp Speed, of course) was creating a product class–superwashers!–that cleaned in under an hour and were not subject to energy and water conservation standards. The Biden administration reversed these rules but the 5th circuit just ruled that the reversal was “arbitrary and capricious.”
Unfortunately, he gives no clue as to how to buy one of these marvelous machines.

Look on Consumer Reports, and be sure to read the remarks. No doubt CR has downchecked the good machines.
