I would say that machine was from the mid to late 70's. Nothing special but got the job done. For the price if you had the washer to match it, I would say get it. But if you are going vintage go with whirlpool/kenmore or ge/hotpoint as the the parts are more widely available. Doug

Well I will say that the Whirlpool will clean the bowl much better than the KitchenAid will. We have a Whirlpool Power Clean as our daily driver and it is over 20 years old with not a single repair and it cleans like crazy, if anything comes out not clean it maybe a spoon or such if the basket...

Beautiful Set, if it was closer I would get that set, a great vintage matched set. Doug

Interesting question on this subject, my vintage Kenmore 800 has a Enzymes Soak on the timer which is a 30 min alternate soak and slow agitation. I used it once on a real dirty load of laundry, but I don't recall if the detergent had enzymes or not, but I do know the wash was clean when it was...

I would go with any dishwasher that has 2 level washing action, I do have a vintage KitchenAid KDS 17 as a spare machine that is used when parties require it, but that machine only has 1 wash arm on the bottom of the tub, and I have been disappointed at times when I load the machine with corning...

Looking at today's Picture of today, it is an ad for Kenmore washers and dryers. What I would like to know if these are Canada's Simpson Sears washers and dryers as they have the side swing doors on the dryers. I think the side swing doors were either never offered on USA Kenmores or if they...

Hey Dan, I didn't see the POD from yesterday, but might this be the shot you are looking for. This is from my 1974 Kenmore 800 as it has the golden Roto-Swirl agitator. Doug

Paul, we chose to go the route of getting an electric mattress pad, works nicer than and electric blanket as the heat comes from the bottom instead of the top. We don't like to have a heavy blanket on top as my other half complains about it being too heavy. O would stick with the dial control as...

I have seen this POD before, and never really looked at it closely, but the bottom rack of this machine has the bowls loaded incorrectly from what I see, they are facing the wrong way and the wash arm of this 1 arm machine will not clean those bowls. I am surprise that Kitchenaid at this time...

We have the same blender and it works really nice, ours has a glass pitcher, I like the hidden cord storage on this unit. Love the chrome finish on the blender too. Enjoy it. Doug

The new sign on the right, has the look of what Maytag used in their signage. Doug

I had to replace an ice maker in my fridge and it said to be sure you fill the ice maker with water to sort of prime it, it will then freeze the water and get the ice maker on its way. Doug

What a Shame It's a shame that a once great company, is slowly going down. All the blame goes to the head guy Eddie Lampert or whoever the guy is. He has ruined a once great firm. Doug

Similar to this one This is my Sears Kenmore 800 a 1973 model that runs very well. Doug

Thanks!, I will try the soak cycle the next time I do a Bob Load and see what happens. Doug

Hi All, I finally got around to trying to do a Bob Load in my spare KitchenAid KDS17 Machine. The machine works well as it is a backup machine located in my utility room. I packed it as best as I could considering it is a 1 arm machine with the overhead sprayer on the top. I did use the Full...

I have a KDS17 that is used for overflow items, and I use powder Cascade. It works great, I wouldn't use a gel dishwasher detergent as they don't clean well. As for pods and tablets, I don't think the wash portion of the cycle last long enough for it to really do it's job as it has enzymes in...

Good Old Emersons. My best friend who use to live down the street from me, his brother use to have an Admiral window ac, and was going to replace with a larger unit and I wanted to buy the Admiral, but mom said no. Well anyway, he did sell it and he bought an Emerson Ac unit and had his dad...

Great Dishwasher We had that very same model Whirlpool Dishwasher and it could wash anything you put in it. It had the Super wash cycle that paused and heated the water in the first wash and last rinse. I still have the directions for that machine. I would purchase it if it was closer and sell...
