> The problem is that there are many things you can't wash in the dishwasher
I have had a dishwasher for years. I either don't buy stuff you can't wash in the dishwasher, or wash it in the dishwasher anyway because I have better things to do than pamper some random crockery.
Except my chefs knives which never get put in there, but they are the exception.
> you have to pre-rinse some things
For me (and we cook every meal) it's the minority. It's a rarity that we ever pre-rinse.
If I lived alone it might feel differently about having a dishwasher, but it was life changing when we got one after our second child was born. However, I wouldn't not get one for the reasons you listed.
