"Please provide credible sources of your claim about mid tier reliability of Bosch dishwashers. CR rates Bosch dishwashers the only brand with a 5/5." Do a search for "Bosch" and "E-24". The number of threads and discussions about this problem is quite high and the number of owners affected...

I know that there is a lot of controversy surrounding the use of dishwasher tabs/pods in vintage dishwashers. We use these in our current, modern dishwasher to great success as the dishes get very clean. I plan on using them in my vintage KitchenAid (KDI-58). Does anybody see any problems with...

My mother in law had one of these (well, a slightly older version with a flush control panel) and it was passed down to us and then we passed it to another family member who eventually ditched it when they moved to a place with a built in. Sort of wish I still had it- I've never seen cleaner...

Here's the model number of the Bosch that came with my house. Gets dishes super clean, cycles take 2 hours plus. Very quiet. Can't wait to get this POS out of my house. EVERY TIME I start a cycle I get the famous Bosch "E-24" message on the display. No, it's not a restriction in the drain...

Saw that on FB from Spokane. There's a KitchenAid Superba in Lake Stevens if you are willing to drive a little bit further.

I would also check the incoming water temperature. I am in the process of installing a very similar KDI-58. It's a portable version and when I hooked it to the faucet adapter it didn't wash anything even close to clean. This was due to the low flow through my lousy faucet and the lowered...

Appears to be the stainless steel version. Hopefully that bottom panel is still around: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/313044207467959?ref=search&referral_code=marketplace_search&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp%3A61fb562b-cb25-4874-b0bd-5f92f8486100

Kenmore half size portable, possibly unused: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/496548558593397?ref=search&referral_code=marketplace_search&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp%3A61fb562b-cb25-4874-b0bd-5f92f8486100

In Bellevue, WA. Supposedly going to the scrappy if nobody wants it.

I'm guessing that you could substitute a piece of appropriately sized drain pipe of some sort as long as it's not dramatically taller (when run along that same path) than the existing broken one. My guess is that they specified one part for this knowing that some of these dishwashers would be...

Wow. I picked up my KDI-58 Imperial for about $70 a few months ago. Didn't realize that there was such a price gap between the two models. Did the Superba cost 16 times as much when it was new? Val

Sorry about that. I got Hotpoint and Hobart confused. And I meant to post this in the Shoppers Square. Moderators- feel free to delete this whole thing and I can start over in the Square. Val

Looks a little on the rough side but it looks just like my KDI-58 that I'm about to build in (it used to be/currently is a portable). Free in Portland OR. Wish I could get it for you and hold it but I'm not in a position to do that...

I did a search for "painting" but only got vague or outdated recommendations on getting the color of an appliance changed. My KitchenAid/Hobart KDI-58 currently has white front panels (2 of them) and dates from approximately 1978 or 1979. My stove top and oven are GE from 1961 and are in that...

I hope that "she's a goner" refers to the Constant Rinse assembly and not the whole machine! About to order one from eBay. Thanks everybody! Val

Here's a shot looking right up at it with the front camera. And two from an eBay auction that came up when I searched for "KitchenAid Constant Rinse". Is it supposed to look like the thing in the auction? Val

Clean up day for my KDI-58 that I purchased in August. This machine is in pretty good physical condition but it is rather dirty. Seems like it spent part of it's life in a grease factory so there's a lot of scrub-a-dub going on. Pulling it all apart I noticed that there seems to be some...

From FB Marketplace-...

So if you bought a built-in unit did it come in this metal surround also? It looks like if I actually took enough screws out the surround would come off but then you lose the cool chrome side things next to the door. I have taken the butcher block top off and there may be enough room above the...

Just picked up a fairly tidy Hobart/Kitchenaid KDI-58 from FB Marketplace this past weekend for not too much $$. If you are interested they do fit in the back of a first generation MINI Cooper. As long as you don't mind hugging the steering wheel. I've done some research on how to pull off the...
