      The dishwasher is generally more efficient than handwashing. It reuses the water, so you’re using less water. In terms of electricity usage, I’m seeing around 2 kWh for one load.

        I mean it seems like a waste to run it if it is not full.

          Intuitively, I get it. But unless you just have a couple of dishes, it’s hard to beat a dishwasher.
