Not me. The DW gets things clean and sanitized. Putting dishes away
takes no time from my life. I did it this morning while waiting for
water to boil and while bacon was cooking. If not emptying the machine
I'd just be standing there.
If you wash by hand, they still have to dry and you still have to handle
them to put them away. Same time.
Only way to save time is to leave them in they drying rack and work from
there as needed and never put them in the cabinets.
