It seems like your thesis is we can make them cheap, let's just throw them out?
What is it about sustainability that is wrong to you, why is pollution and resource wasting better?
Dishwashers to me seem quite simple (compared to say washing machines; just based on having repaired all my home appliances). No reason a dishwasher can't last a lifetime.
My mother's first microwave is still going, about 40 years old, meanwhile newer appliances last the mandated 2y warranty period then break very soon after.
We've been seduced by shiny new things and it's pathological for our species. Companies have played to it because those interested in only money have taken them over.
We're in for a World of hurt this Century as energy and resources shortages hit, I wonder if we'll learn.
