ok, so here we’ve got a machine that takes up the same amount of space (if not more) as a crockery cupboard, but uses the same amount of energy as a dishwasher, even though you’ll still need to wash the dishes before recycling them ?
So: current -> take out dish, eat off it, wash it, put it away.
new -> take out plastic disc, make dish (using electric) , eat off it, wash dish, flatten dish (using electric), put it away.

I think I’m missing something…
