I always do as tea towel are so unheigenic

do you mean in the dishwasher? yes I do, but that’s because I put the dishwasher on just before bed

Before I had a dish washer I almost always let them dry over night

dishwasher doesn’t gives 100 % satisfaction so i use hand and use drying racks to dry it.but i have not seen any special shine yet.may be difference in the detergent you use.

I always leave them to drain overnight, its a battle as it is to get anyone to help cleaning them, I prefer to let em drip dry overnight than the stress and the extra work.

Mine only night time dishes leave overnight to drain.

We have a dish washer but there are some things I prefer to wash by hand, threw the drying rack out years ago. I found leaving stuff to dry on the rack ended up leaving streaks and water spots on things, especially glasses, maybe it was the dish washing liquid I used?

Mine usually get left out because whom evers turn it was to do the wiping up invariably does not do it and I have to the next morning

Don’t know about a better shine, I just do it because I am lazy and dont want to dry them 😛

I have always left my washing up over night to dry and find my glass always look cleaner no streaks from dry them with a tea towel. Than i can just grab all the plates ect and put away quickly in the morning

Have nevr really thought about it before but all your answers make a lot of sense.

I do, not for any other reason other then I can’t be bothered drying and putting them away 🙂

Always on the drying rack her! Usually had enough by then!

Most nights my dishes stay out overnight. I believe it is more hygienic to drip dry than towel dry

always – have a drying rack just for this purpose

For me nothing better than walking into a tidy kitchen in the morning so I let them drip dry and then put them away before bed

I fond leaving them overnight means I don’t have to dry them and put them away when I am tired, but I feel better first thing when I see them all clean and dry!

Yes I used to let my dishes air but these days all I use is a dish water & everything is sparkling clean.

Totally agree. Who can be bothered wiping dishes anyway?! And I’ve heard that it’s more hygienic leaving dishes to air dry…??

I like to leave them out to dry simply because its both a time saver and better for the environment.
