Does Anyone Have “Portable” Dishwashers?

I’m only renting a condo unit and was wondering if portable dishwashers are a thing and if it’s useful.

How much does it cost and where to buy?

    I’ve been using the Maximus Mini Dishwasher model for 2yrs now, though bought it on sale at around PhP15k. https://www.thegreatest.ph/store/p12/MAX-004M.html

    Soap: Seventh Generation Dishwasher Detergent Powder

    As someone that hates washing dishes, this appliance is a lifechanger.

    Caveat: We only use the Rapid option (runs for 30mins. Does not include the drying option) then air dry after. Super tagal ng Eco/intense options for me, I think they run for more than 2hours so feel ko sayang sa kuryente eh natutuyo din naman at the same time via air dry.

    Pros:

    • very effective in removing sebo in plastic dishes
    • Can accomodate dishes used for 1 or 2 meals for a small family (excluding cooking utensils)
    • Tipid sa tubig kasi 5L lang for a full load
    • Tipid din sa soap, kaya tumagal ng half year isang box
    • Acts as a drying rack na rin
    • Peace and harmony sa household (can’t emphasize this enough. Lol)

    Cons:

    • Need to ensure that your dishes are dishwasher safe, so byebye sa cute plates from Daiso. We had to swap them with Ikea Kalas.
    • Hindi na kame gumagamit ng full sized dinner plates since bulky sya masyado. Sa mangkok na lang kame kumakain
    • Mugs lang din ang drinkware namen dahil bulky kasi normal glasses.
    • Limited din lalagyan ng kubyertos, so minsan manual din sya hinuhugasan.
    • Sa The Marketplace / online lang available yung dishwasher soap.
    • Smallish pots + pan can fit, pero hindi practical kasi sayang yung space
