According to my brief googling, there are 131.43 million households in America, and either 79 or 80 million American households own dishwashers. I could not find a breakdown by state, but I suspect they’re predominantly popular in wealthier areas, and less popular in poorer areas.
I’m pretty sure it’s a space thing. How many millions of people in New York live in half a closet, where your “home” is the place where you sleep and recharge your phone, and you spend every waking second out and about in the city. You don’t have a kitchen much less a dishwasher. Meanwhile I’ve never seen a double wide mobile home without one equipped from the factory. I would be surprised to find a multi-bedroom family dwelling without a dishwasher.
Someone I know moved into an apartment with no dishwasher, and they were like “fuck this” and bought a countertop dishwasher. So apparently that’s a thing.
corporations don’t need to actually make products to be profitable. look at tesla. I assumed it was a few suburbanites and the rest is financial instruments/subsidies, to the extent I thought about it at all.
This isn’t one product, it’s an entire division of a very very large company. It’s profitable. The entire category of dishwashers as an appliance is not a lost leader.
Most of the muskrats “wealth” is in stock. Tesla is valued at more than every other car company in the world put together because a whole lot of dipshits think that a company can grow forever instead of looking at the actual financial data. There are going to be a whole lot of bagholders on that one. The point is if you think every company can operate like Tesla, I would encourage you to do a whole lot more reading. Tesla needs to be profitable at some point to stay alive anyway.
… I know one person in this country who has a dishwasher. what the hell?
idk what it’s worth but the ONLY place I’ve seen without a dishwasher is my sister’s college dorm 🤷♀️

it might be an urban/suburban-rural thing? lived in a lot of apartments without them.
What country do you think supports the American dishwasher companies if Americans don’t?

They do need to be profitable to last as a company. Whirlpool won’t be bailed out by the world’s richest dipshit.
right they need to be profitable.
they don’t need to make products to be profitable. which is the thing I actually said.
and I fully expect they will, if they kiss the ring.
