    Grandmommy’s dishwasher has a bad case of rack rot! HELP!

    So my Grandma’s Maytag needs both an upper and lower rack as the times are breaking off and everything is all rusty. Anyone have a spare set they’re willing to sell reasonably? Am I better off helping them on the new machine front? It seems a good machine, and other than the rotting racks this...

    Well here goes what is certainly going to be a wild ride...

    I’ve enough here to know it’ll never be my primary use dishwasher, but I think it’ll be a fun one to hopefully preserve for the future while enjoying it. I’m really excited to see the steam cycle, which it seems is the cycle that cleans best in these, with the normal cycle being very average.

    Well here goes what is certainly going to be a wild ride...

    It'll be a while, the machine is a 10 hour drive away, so it'll be my next trip later this year. But as soon as I have anything to post I will. I'm just excited to play with it! I've never been one to walk away from such a challenge...

    RARE ... HOBART VINTAGE COMMERCIAL DISHWASHER

    Wow! I love it!! If I were to find one within easy driving range I’d be tempted to put the Powerclean in storage for a while!

    Well here goes what is certainly going to be a wild ride...

    So a friend out in MO is supposed to be getting a steam cycle Thermador from another friend, but it’s currently in storage with yet another mutual friend of ours, complicated, yes? But anyway, the friend in need of a good dishwasher, I’m going to give him a Whirlpool Power clean, or maybe a...

    Clogged Kitchen Sink w/ Disposal

    This 3/4 HP unit, as you see, will easily shred bones, even if they don't fit completely down in the grind chamber. Just the other day I disposed of a ham bone down the thing, it is a bit noisy, but it took care of it quickly! Not that I'd do this regularly, but I find the idea of being able...

    Clogged Kitchen Sink w/ Disposal

    Glass to me is not food, so it doesn’t go down the disposal, besides, there’s nothing to sharpen, it’s all full from the factory... If you need/want to knock all the crud out of it, just drop bones down it!

    What sort of unicouple or hose would fit this machine?

    A couple of Cuisy Cuisinarts, what shall I do?

    Figured out the lid on the white one is fine. She was missing the pusher and sleeve that actuated the switch thing.

    Clogged Kitchen Sink w/ Disposal

    I put everything down the disposal, if it’s food waste it goes in there, peels, bones, rinds, cores, and even bones. I even put the leafy green pineapple top down it with the rest of the rind. Coffee filter with all the grounds in it? Absolutely! I have a Waste Maid 3/4 HP disposal, before that...

    A couple of Cuisy Cuisinarts, what shall I do?

    So I’ve got these two, customers left them here. Both motor units work perfectly, one needs everything and the one on the left needs a new lid and pusher as well as lo the other fun accessories. My question is about how to get the parts for these. People seem to want to split the sets up on...

    what would be your dream vintage portable dishwasher to own

    I’d say a stainless steel tub Kitchenaid, any of the models it was available with. I’m betting it’ll have to be a built in model for the stainless tub though.

    Smart People

    We’ve never had the laundry all the way in the basement, but close to it in the first house I lived in, the next two had/have it upstairs on the second floor. It’s nice having it up there, but a basement laundry is far better than none at all! Not big on communal laundry, I love the machines...

    Vintage Thermadorian Dishwasher - Wenham, MA

    I’ve always liked the idea of having a hot water circulation pump and a tankless water heater. Tankless for endless hot water and the pump for instant hot water.

    Year old Whirlpool dishwasher, anyone else have one, opinions?

    Some sort of residue in there. I’ll do the cup test next time I’m there. I might take off the wash arm and have a look in there too just to see. The filter area is clean, and I ran the filter through the kitchenaid, there was some greasy hooping it, and a film on the dishes and inside of the...
