Well, I don't have either so I guess you can't miss what ya don't have.
If I had a choice, I'd rather be without a dishwasher, as I absolutely HATE going to the laundromat to wash clothes. There's nothing like being able to wash clothes in your underwear at your own leisure. :p
All you youngsters do not remember the washing machine with the rollers on top.....then you had to hang your laundry to dry...
Washing Machine or Dryer?;) :D :p
Hey, I remember the roller machines, I even used to use one and also the forerunner to those, a hand roller. I still hang washing on the clothes line if the weather is ok.
lmachine washed (my mom had roller type washer when i was growing up ) then line dried in the back yard/:cool:Quote:

When we were in Italy, everyone was drying the laundry outside (looking very picturesque of course). Then Sara heard that I haven't a dryer either and she was close to fainting.
I could never live without my new washing machine (3 months old, the old one died after having served vor 28 !!! years, talk about German quality:D ;) :p ) that also allows me to wash light woolies and silks in it- but I think a dryer is waste of money. Laundry dries by itself but unfortunately doesn't wash itself:D
(Dishes don't wash themselves either- I have my dishwasher now for 7 or 8 years and what I really like is that you can hide all the dirty dishes in it - and the kitchen looks tidy even if it isn't;) )
Barbara, none of my family in Germany has a dryer. The laundry is hung on a cloth line on the Balcony and during the winter the cloth freeze sometimes.
I couldn’t do without my dryer. It keeps you from ironing most clothing and you don’t have to worry about visitors seeing your undies hanging on the cloth line. LOL!
I have a dishwasher, but still do the dishes by hand.
Dishwasher would have to go.
