Not Sold It is back on the site, same link, for $775.00! Tom, I agree with the Whirlpool elements. The sump is reminiscent as well as the pump assembly. The rack design, while not identical, does have some Whirlpool elements as well. Looks like a seldom used machine.

Sounds like a Wasteking! Vrroooom!! Glad you were able to get everything working again. That's what a Wasteking/Thermador of this vintage should sound like! :) The asphalt coating did nothing to help the resonating sound of the motor! I sent you a message about the lower wash arm bearing...

Congrats on your score! These are fun machines. Good luck with the diagnosis and repairs. Hope it doesn't need too much work.

Hi Reggie, sorry I did not catch up on this thread sooner. I have a used pump/motor assembly you may have. It is from an older unit that I was saving as a backup for my own WK. I don't use the WK as a daily driver (as I want to preserve it) so the likelihood of me needing the backup is pretty...

Congratulations Paul!  Like Bob, I also grew up with this dishwasher.  It was installed approximately 1962 and lasted until 1975, when it was replaced with a KDI-17.   My mom really liked it and the only reason she replaced it was due to the sump rusting out (the plastisol had worn away exposing...

Wow!! Very cool!! Congratulations!!

Happy Holidays to everyone!   Hope everyone is enjoying the season and having fun!  

That is definitely a Potscrubber II dishwasher, model GSD1070.   The control panel gives away the model; the GSD1050 models had dark brown buttons for the Energy Saver Dry option switch.  The 1070 changed the buttons to a chrome color.   I have this model, but it's not in as good condition;  I...

We had a Suburban wall oven & matching gas cook top growing up.   The oven was very large and cooked well (except for broiling).  It was a fairly deluxe model; it had a built-in rotisserie for use in the broiler compartment.   My parents used that feature once!     The cooktop was basic and...

That's actually a 1960 model.  I believe this is the first time this push-button & timer assembly were used.     Pretty machine, hope someone saves it!        

Just catching this thread (not sure how I missed it!)    Beautiful set and great story.  Congrats on getting such a great pair!   I had a set of these in Harvest Gold a while back.  The washer was super quiet; the dryer not so much.  But they did a great job.   The Penta Swirl agitator can...

Wow!!  Cool set!  You're certainly on a roll!  :)    Congrats on all the great finds and have fun with them!   Hope you find a Coppertone set soon.   

Nice set!  Congratulations!

<a style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; font-weight: 400; background-color: #cfb8d7;" name="preview"></a> That is a KDS 17.  Looks like it's in pretty good shape.   Hope someone gets it! 

Timer Hi, I believe I have the timer you need.  Can you post a pic of your console, and your full model #?  If it matches you may have it for free.    

Yes, it is still available.

No Worries Thanks for the kind sentiments. I'm not bitter or upset at all; just a bit disappointed that we all won't be able to enjoy the manual, and the great info it contained regarding a pretty rare item. Now if was the actual machine, and it was near enough to me that it made economical...

Outbid I lost this by a $1!! All good, hopefully whoever won it will share the booklet with our site so we can all enjoy it. Keeping fingers crossed!

Tom, didn't this machine use the augur style pump? I was unaware it was used in any other machine. From my reading it worked best when the water filled the outer chamber forcing the walls of the pump housing closer to the augur and increasing it's efficiency. How did it suck air?
