    General Electric GSD1200

    Exaggerations John's usual exaggerations...and lies. GE tower washes never had a problem with washing in the corners. Many of our members have tower washes and will confirm this. Obviously Consumer Reports would have noticed such a glaring omission is performance. Not to mention the GSD...

    Did this Dishwasher Actually Exist?

    Laura Petrie's dishwasher That is a beautiful machine (as pictured in reply #14) Steve! That was the dishwasher that the Petrie's had in the pilot episode (which was also episode one, of season one) of the Dick Van Dyke Show. Laura had an all Westinghouse kitchen. This was in line with the...

    Sunbeam radiant control toaster troubles

    consistency That's good news, Adam. That shaking may have solved your problems. A lot of crumbs, dust, crust flakes, etc. accumulate with time and can sometimes interfere with the linkage/sensor system.

    reverse rack What are you mumbling in and on about, Tom? Why are you talking about second wash arms and plate sizes? That has nothing to do with the past conversation d. If you are trying to say. Reverse racks were not tested with pans in the lower rack, so??? Why would it matter? It utilized...

    clean sensor Adam, the sensor is located in a little metal protective cover, between the vertical heating elements, that shields the sensor from the direct heat. Just check to make sure a small piece of crust or large crumb hasn't wedged itself in there between the cover and the strip. This...

    reverse racks Let's see John...the reverse rack was on the market for well over tenty years, I would say that indicates a very successful design and a miney-maker for Maytag. Recall they held more dishes than the other brands and were almost always in the top eschlon of Consumer Reports...

    better get glasses You better get glass Tom, in the last paragraph of post #9, I stated that the 18 minute wash was a flash compared to today's machines, referring back to your statement about the early Maytags. After that I was talking about my experiences with the Reverse Racks, which are...

    Maytag Yes, Tom, I sure did. I saw your your reference to the early Maytag, with the figure 8 heating elements. You will notice my comments were directed at that machine, as evidenceed by my use of the 18 minute figure, which is not that long comparatively. As I stated, a mere flash compared...

    dishwashers Sorry your ego got hurt, John. No, there is no reason for Maytag to have not offered a version without water heating. No one is making you, or anyone else, buy it. That was over forty years ago, get over it. If one doesn't need that capability then there is no need to pay for...

    the stupid and the Maytag jet clean dishwasher part 2

    detergent A dishwasher detergent should do the job on it's own without adding chemicals, Tom. Palmolive gel is not a good detergent, why do you buy it and then have to purchase a chemical to add to it to make it do it's job? Unless it's just fun for you to do it that way. Today's quality...

    dishwasher detergent John, yes I told Pete to take the water temperature at the faucet, lol. The temperatures we are talking about are not going to destroy the dishwasher or the plumbing. As far as putting a gel in the pre-wash cup, there is generally no reason to do so. A good quality...

    Sunbeam radiant control toaster troubles

    adjusting the Sunbeam Adam, you have an adjustment screw on the lower center portion of the right handle. It's a very small opening that will fit a mini-slotted screwdriver. This adjusts the position of the temperature sensor that "sees" one side of the toast. It moves the sensor in and out...

    detergent Hi Pete, Nice machine! The reverse-racks are exemplary cleaners, BUT as other members have stated above, you do need hot water entering the machine for it to do well as it will not heat the water. Do not rely on the temperature setting on your hot water tank, as you have heat...

    Tappan Reverse-a-jet Dishwsaher - California, MO

    dual drench Yes, Bob. However ads for the older "Dual Drench" should have been made that stated, "moistens dishes in one direction, then the other" as those dishwashers didn't seem to actually wash anything. I think management at Tappan must have hired someone's cousin to design the Dual...
