I have a shitty kitchen I plan to remodel in a few years, but for now I want a damn dishwasher. These "portable" ones are stupid expensive and can't even find a 2nd hand one for cheap.Whats to stop me from taking a regular ass dishwasher, building a box for it and making my own? It can't be that easy... right? Like, it just needs power, water, and a drain?
>it just needs power, water, and a drain?Correct. Although it does need to be secured, because if you open it and slide out a loaded drawer it's going to tip forward. In an installed application it gets anchored to the adjacent cabinets and/or countertop to prevent it from happening.
>>2995295I have a semi automatic idea to the diswasher problem. Dishwasher is only okay for busy man that can spent 0 second washing. Can't wash oversized, weird geometry, had to decide when is the best time to start and judge the cleanliness after 1hr.What if we can use any tub and sink, and externalize the heating element, pump and sprinkler to the size of a vacuum, that would be very portable, controllable and configurable than the huge appliance box. With strong enough jet of hot enough soapy water, this should get anything clean, followed by regular rinse. You can do that rack after rack even for huge gathering and restaurants.
>>2996136Great idea fester!
>>2996136A commercial dishwasher, the kind you'd find in a restaurant, takes maybe 90 seconds for a cycle. Interior volume is something like 2ft^3.
>>2996541Is there a reason why it isn't the norme other than reasons like it uses 9000 psi superheated steam straight from the boiler.
