Dishwasher is two years old. A replacement fir the one we inherited & we had for about 10 years. It has just been repaired for the third time in so many weeks. It has just gone bang! Thank god I was here as it smelt v suspicious. Pulled out & unplugged. Would I be unreasonable to get the repair man to do the washing up when he gets here?

YANBU - give him a pair of Marigolds & promise him a cuppa when he is done.

I would be asking for a new replacement personally, this one is clearly duff.

Iwill think I need to invoke the rule we had when in a student share. If you cook , you wash up....he might use less pans then! Must be more grateful!
