I have purchased this one, and it will be shipped back to Illinois, arriving perhaps by mid-September. Mike

Being a detail freak, I need to correct the above statement. Electric Sink #21 just arrived from the Buffalo, New York area this past Saturday. It is a 1955 Hotpoint Electric Sink Model: 50MC20. Electric Sink #22 has arrived at the Home Delivery location here in the Peoria area (it came from...

.....and the Mini-Basket is there too! That is worth the $59 alone, almost.

Rob, We never know what will turn up. Four years ago, when I joined automaticwasher.org, and started searching for vintage dishwashers, I never dreamed that so many Electric Sinks would turn up. This latest GE becomes the 21st whole machine Electric Sink in my collection (in addition, 3 other...

Hi Rob, I just paid for the Hotpoint Portable, and I am arranging shipment from Michigan back to Illinois. I was able to get it shipped for about the same amount of money that I would have spent on gas and food, PLUS, I don't have to drive for 16 hours. Therefore, I do not have any pictures...

I am not 100 percent positive, but I am going to suggest that the TY in the serial number translates: T = October, Y = 1965 If someone else has a more accurate translation, please correct me. Mike

I was contacted today by a man who lives in St. Louis. He saw some of my videos on YouTube. He is a Retro Enthusiast, with many vintage household items, and even three vintage cars (including a 1941 Cadillac Fleetwood and 1958 Cadillac Fleetwood). He currently is undergoing a kitchen...

I bought this one, and I just arranged to have it shipped back to me in West Peoria. Mike

I have wondered about some of these early dishwasher manufacturing companies. Were they trying to copycat the efforts of Josephine Garis Cochrane. Josephine was a socialite from Shelbyville, Illinois, and in the early 1880s developed one of the first ever dishwashers. By 1886, she had...

Kevin, It truly is difficult to turn my head and let these Electric Sinks just end up in the dump. This will be the 19th whole Electric Sink here at my home, plus 4 more which have previously been reduced to parts or portions of the whole sink cabinet. I still am waiting to fine and acquire a...

Lawrence, I concur. Hotpoint Dishwasher literature shows the freestanding Dishwashers with the same type of porcelain top, but without the emblem. Here is a scan of one page from one of my Hotpoint Sales Brochures, which shows the water heater, next to the freezer, with the Emblem positioned...

As I continued to give this Youngstown Electric Sink more thought, I decided to contact the seller. In the end, we agreed on a more reasonable price, so I have contracted to buy it, and have it shipped back to West Peoria. Mike

I closed the deal on this one, and it will eventually be making its way to West Peoria. The one I already have like it, has the Whirlpool emblem on it. One lid hinge is broken on the Whirlpool, so perhaps it will become a donor machine for the Hotpoint in case anything starts to go wrong with...

One more thought - on my Walker, underneath the sink is the serial number plate, and next to it is a casting date - in my case, 1929. Mike

Walker operation: I can only speculate on part of this. On the sink top, between the sink and dishwasher, is a water valve controlling the water flow into the dishwasher. Next to that was a drain plunger, but mine is missing, so I cannot describe it, or its action. The operator would have...

It looks like it is the original Aluminum Impeller. Some rust remains around the drain after major scrubbing, plus porcelain has chipped away (but I am unsure of the cause). The ding at 3 o'clock with reference to the impeller, has, on the outside of the dishwasher tub, a large impact of some...
