I couldn't live without my dishwasher. The tablets are not as good as seperate powder and rinse. My dishwashers does the pots shiny clean. To solve the problem of loading unloading get a second dishwasher. Don't understand your reference to types of dishes and cutlery, I use stainless steel cutlery and my dishes are the type used in a restaurant, strong, durable and easy to replace.
Hizzy a condenser dryer doesn't have a vent, it transfers the water from the clothes back into water and you have to empty a tray/container regularly (which is a pain). I don't have a dryer because they use too much electricity.
