Similar to other things in life like love and disappointment, chores are just another unavoidable aspect of being alive. No matter how many times we do the laundry, there’s still more to be done and it’ll stay that way for the rest of our lives. Even though we can’t opt out of doing chores, we’re living in the most technologically advanced age in history, so there are ways to lessen the burden. For example, if you’re still washing dirty dishes by hand, you may want to invest in a dishwasher instead. That’s one less chore on the list for you to get done, after all. Here are some great options, whether you prefer a countertop appliance or a freestanding one.
