Where I live you don’t often see dishwashers, so I always assumed they were as convenient as it could get.
Washing dishes is less bad if you don’t have to wash LOADS of dishes, so you could wash them (and negotiate with your family that everyone ought to do the same) (your plates specifically) right after you’re finished with your food. They’re also easier to wash when the food had’nt dried to the plates. If you have kids too small to even reach the sink, that’s harder.
I don’t really know how dishwasher’s oughta work, is there some reason one can not load their plates right into it? (after some initial rinsing, I presume).
As for pots, and other stuff for which immediate cleansing is not an option… well, those are still gonna suck, especially since they are the things hardest to clean, and neither would it be clear who would have to clean it (if, as is customary, your missus is the one cooking, it is only proper that you help relieve her from some of the load). If you were always to cook just enough, you could at least clean those while they are easier to, but we specifically tend to make more days worth of food in one go.
