Very nice looking dishwasher. The white and copper really pops.

Thanks guys. John, here's what I know of the story and my speculation. I see the machine listed for sale. Not many details, but just said upgrading and I could see that the machine was very clean. I make the long drive and find it's an extremely affluent appearing private/rural neighborhood with...

Hey all, thanks for the replies. I enjoyed reading them. You're never going to believe this, but I found this machine's baby brother while looking for a parts machine: a 1994 DU8500. Here's the kicker though, it's brand new and never used! Look at how minty the PowerClean Module is! The racks...

Hello all, I found this absolutely beautiful Whirlpool dishwasher recently and would like to share. The model # is DU8770XY-1 and the serial # is FC3858582. I believe it is a 1993. The machine appears to be very low use. The previous owner had it set up in bisque, so the black is just pristine...

Beautiful set of machines congrats. I like all the photos. Not a single nub missing on the scrubber cap!

Thanks Thanks guys for your thoughts on the Whirlpool. Definitely going to go for it and I really hope for it to be super clean and low miles as possible! Hopefully can line something up with the guy soon. I'll have to start keeping my eyes peeled out for parts machines. As far as my LG is...

Found something Just found this machine that is about 2 hours away from me for $50. Should I go for it?? What can you guys tell me about this machine?? Pros: mechanical timer. Cons: center tower... but I could work around that if this machine has grunt?? Are the machine "rebuildable" or...

Hello all, I have this piece of junk LG dishwasher that is starting to abort mid cycle. Ran overnight so hard to tell where but dishes are relatively clean so maybe towards the end. It did this once awhile back and just now did it two cycles in a row. I read once that it could be some sort of...

Hello all, I found this mint 1972 GE Filter Flow Model WWA8400NBHLT (ser TM142541G). Supposedly this machine sat unused for 30 years! I wish I knew more about the backstory, but when the price is free, I'm not asking too many questions. The machine works fine from what I can tell. Clutch seems...

Hello all, I need a transmission donor for my 1971 Lady Kenmore. I had two donors years ago but they both weren't compatible (everything bound up). Does anyone know which years of transmissions would be compatible with the '71 Lady? Also is it feasible to split the transmission to replace the...

Hello all I have this KA KUDC10FXSS5 DW. It has a new control board. The lights for the high temp scrub and heat dry buttons do not work. They do beep but the lights remain off. I was pretty bummed because I definitely want these and to avoid the money spent on a new panel. Not all hope is lost...

Amazing machines that you found. They look very cool and rare. I didn't even know of Horton washers. It is interesting to know that old timers speed up throughout the cycle.

Hard water inlet and more "cookie dough" on the underneath of the sump cover

Dang I did not realize DWs were using a timed fill. Was looking for a very slight modification to improve performance but likely unnecessary. I picked up this Kitchen-aid DW locally for cheap and I noticed they recessed the heating element further into the sump compared to older models. I assume...
