If it's worth to purchase a dishwasher... it varies a lot given each ones own priorities and situation.
If saving X minutes a day is a big thing or a small thing... it also varies a lot given how you value your time and how much you enjoy dishwashing by hand. I know a few people who love to do it; no need to take away that joy for the sake of efficiency.
But for the vast majority, if you have a dishwasher idle, those are some minutes you get back practically* for free.
I also cook only for two, but I do it three times a day, and I have a lot to do so I value each minute saved in chores immensely. My dishwasher has been a blessing, without it I would be eating out or ordering delivery MUCH more frequently.
I don't enjoy it, but I guess I also don't mind it that much. And I only cook once a day. Mornings are usually cold, evenings only my wife eats and that's warned up. So dishes are just those 10 minutes, once a day. That's about 2-4 songs playing on the kitchen speaker ;) if I had to do the dishes middle time a day, I'd probably like it less as well ;)
