I would not miss the dishwasher. I think it is more work to load an
unload the dishwasher than it is to do dishes by hand. Our old machine
died a few years ago and I would have been fine with not replacing it.
However, my wife does the dishes more than I do and she wanted a new
one. I guess it doesn't matter how much more work I think it is to use
the machine if she is the one doing it most of the time.

When she is away for a few days and I am left to my own devices the
machine never gets used. I figure that it takes less time to wash the
dishes and let them air dry than it is to load and unload the machine.
