As a leader in implementing an energy-efficient future, Vestel presents a blog where we discuss dishwasher vs. hand washing. Which is more economical and efficient in saving water?

A dishwasher is designed to be highly efficient, which means it uses the right amount of water to wash the dishes.

While dishwashers have their advantages, hand washing can also be a viable option, especially for those with older dishwasher models that may not be as efficient.

On average, a dishwasher uses 3 to 12 gallons of water per cycle, depending on the model and the wash cycle. And when washing by hand, it’s usually about 8 to 27 gallons of water in an average 10-minute wash.

If you wash dishes by hand twice a day, that can add up to 16 to 54 gallons of water, while a dishwasher will only use 6 to 24 gallons for the same number of cycles. Based on these numbers, it is clear that using a dishwasher can result in significant water savings.

When it comes to saving for the year, the dishwasher takes the lead. Vestel's energy-efficient dishwashers can significantly reduce water consumption compared to manual washing.
