reversa-jet Hey Alan, congratulations on your find! Most sellers will hold items until you can make arrangements for them until you can obtain transport. I hope you get it. A reversa-jet has always been on my wish/dream list. It was in the highest rating category in Consumer Reports in...

Laura list her dishwasher. Bob, when the Westinghouse appliances left, so did Laura's dishwasher. That's why you don't recall seeing one. In fact the entire cabinet that housed the dishwasher was removed. That way Laura could walk from the sink to her built-in oven and her fridge, which were...

I watched the pilot/1st episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show the other day. Laura had a Westinghouse kitchen then (which made sense as Desilu had Westinghouse's sponsorship). The kitchen you saw in the pilot was slightly different than for the remainder of the series run. The Westinghouse...

warm rinse Warm rinses have always been the standard operating procedure for me. Warm rinsing is far superior to a cold rinse. Not only is detergent solubility increased with warmer temperatures, but fabric weaves tend to open up slightly due to thermal expansion. Of course, this is not new...

In Ohio. Poor quality Ebay photos https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1052973069270287/?ref=search&referral_code=null&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp%3A2c0679b2-5505-4e4c-8d65-5105d3ba0e62

you Speed Queen washer and dryer on television Your washer and dryer had are famous, Melvin! Watch Mitzi Gaynor dance around them in her tv special.

D&M Shannon, you are correct that is a D&M machine. You can change your 99.9% to 100 percent! Good call. The picture shows the older D&M spray arm with the larger, but fewer, jets. This must have been one of the last models produced that used them, or they just had not updated the drawing in...

Cascade and aluminum Hi Barry,   Don't apologize for asking questions, that's what we are all here for, to care and share.   Unfortunately, Cascade and many dishwasher detergents will do just the opposite of what you want.  They permanently tarnish uncoated aluminum.   If you have hard...

percolator coffee For whatever reason, I find percolator coffee and vacuum brewed coffee the best.  It gives that traditional comforting taste that you can just curl up on a couch with, and sip your troubles away.   Since you only drink a couple of cups, Matt, you might like General...

Nice find! Congratulations, Shannon. That is a nice looking machine. D&M machines have good scrubbing power. Enjoy!!

cool option reference Exactly Shannon. All options will give one clean dishes, KA, ISE, and Maytag RR. As I mentioned above the Maytag RR in not raucous. One can stand right next to it, while it is running, and easily hold a conversation. But, you definitely know it's running. Personally...

Maytag Reverse-Rack The mid-80's and the 1991 reverse racks are the easiest to load and hold more dishes that the ISE/KA. All three are good performers when it comes to cleaning. Several years the Maytag Reverse Racks came in #1 in consumer reports, and in other years the KA's were number...

ISE John and I are in agreement, Moen is a cheap permanent magnet motor unit, built in China. Your Sink-Master was likely made in the U.S, before Annaheim shut down their California production facility. The Moen badge is just one of many names on their units. The difference between Annaheim...

A Speed Queen dishwasher Thanks, Robert. I had no clue that unit was labled with the Speed Queen name. I always wondered why Speed Queen never broke into the dishwasher market. I guess they did, at least by name. Too bad they didn't market and manufacture their own machine. I think when...

unique concept I think Modern Maid overestimated the need for a compact unit. The theory is good, a space-saving unit for small kitchens and apartments, but in practice they didn't seem to stay in production for many years. The dishwasher is almost the same as my family's, which my dad...

ultra large drum capacity My mom had one of these dryers (in Avacado). I don't know what the cubic foot capacity was, seems like it was near 7 cu ft. One of the largest home dryers on the planet, at the time, ha. I think my parents got it in the latter seventies. It is so wide it made the...

test marketing As mentioned by others above, these were sold at Home Depot and were only marketed for a VERY short time. I purchased a set for my sister and brother-in-law. I believe it was around the late nineties. My speculation is GE was test marketing a stainless steel washer with their...

"saving the planet" I think we should all give up washing our clothes and taking baths. That will save our planet, even faster. We are not running out of energy on planet Earth. Energy is neither created nor destroyed. I won't purchase a washer, vintage or otherwise, unless it has a warm...
