A sous vide dishwasher. Now there’s a project some crazy YouTube engineer ought to get on!

Dishwashers are already pretty much air tight. You just need a pump. How strong does a vessel have to be to resist an atmosphere of pressure? But I guess it’s sous vide rather than non vide.

Especially europoean dishwashers that mostly don't have heating elements and retain the temperature from water to help dry.

The bottom edge of the door usually isn't a tight seal.

I discovered this when one of the plastic conduits came loose inside my dishwasher in precisely the right way as to spray water directly at the inside bottom of the door. The top and sides have a rubber seal, but the bottom is protected pretty much entirely by the interior shape of the door and the bottom tray.

It makes sense, if you think about it, since you would absolutely want some way for the humidity to gradually equalize if you left it alone with the door closed for a while.
