Bottom rack Exactly as I expected--completely untouched.  But I'm not surprised--I had no expectation that the lower arm was designed to reach the corners quite that way.   I had to go back and wipe peanut butter off the tines.  Ew.

Top rack Not bad.  A trace of crud where the glass bows inward for the ring near the base.  Otherwise, mostly clean.   Remember, this is 40 minutes later, not 3.5 hours.  :-)

Open, sesame... Oooh!  Steamy.  We have our hot water at about 145, so the dishwasher gets nice, piping-hot water.  Good thing, since this one lacks a supplemental heat cycle.   Please ignore obligatory crap piled on dishwasher.  God help us if we had a Mobile Maid.

The results... So, the cycle came to its end, which caused my ears to perk up when I heard the scavenge-drain, and not a subsequent fill.  Off to see what happened...   (NO, GREG, WE WILL NOT BE RUNNING IT THROUGH THE HEATED DRY.)  ;-)

For Greg This challenge is sponsored by all-new Cold Water Cascade.  For virtually clean dishes!   Strange; it was funnier ten years ago...

Let's do this Since there are no corners in the upper rack, let's up the ante, shall we? Finish Quantum in the pre-wash cup, and liquid chlorinated gel in the covered cup, to get rid of errant coffee and tea stains. Stay tuned...[this post was last edited: 1/11/2016-19:31]

Memory lane I had to share a find from the "treasures" folder--an underfilling GSD1200 caused me to render this Photoshop gem.  Needless to say, at the time, it wasn't passing the PB test.

The ad copy leaves you wondering if it works I promise you it doesn't.

Hey Nate ! Check this out That is extremely impressive. It reinforces the experiences I had with our 1250--it had an almost magical ability to reach all portions of the top rack with that spray tower. I guess I'll have to give this a go in the Roto-Rack--although, to be fair, how would I put...

Wow! We are mounting that in your attic.

Nope! 100% normal.  Quiet, even!

D&M Modern Maid for sure Thanks to Frigilux for a meme that jogged my memory. Now we know! I'd guess that this was a non-Roto Rack flavor. http://img03.mar.cx/_images/l/us/72264078/72264078_specimen_1_image_11.jpg

Nice I so want one of these, but find myself curling up in the fetal position on the floor and sucking my thumb after the seal-hell I went through with the last one.

Wow That's like seeing a pristine Yugo, and being torn about how, exactly, to feel. Those Magic Chef DWs happened when MC stopped using D&M to source their dishwashers, so GE was the only other manufacturer with a production line capable of mass-rebadges. This is what you got. (Amana did the...

$6050 They may be high, but I've seen people misunderstand the price field in Craigslist, and mean "$60 or $50," which would be more in-line. :-)

Fascinating Amazing, that loading pattern--let's hope Preway supplied the dishes and tumblers. I bet that silverware basket received merely a lick and a promise.

Dryer It's a BOL 1-18 dryer, because Scott said I needed one to go with the washer. :-) Ironically, shortly after acquiring it, the 1-18 washer's timer croaked anyway, and I haven't gotten around to replacing the faulty gear, so the dryer is just dealing with pretty average-sized loads from...

the next machine to bat its pretty eyes Oh, like you guys have never done that. Pffft. :-)

Yuck My parents' house had that stove in white; the ultimate in Whirlpool builder's-grade product. Nothing says "it was either this, or an empty space for a stove" quite like those units. Not bad, not particularly great either; just a stove. I think this unit comes with a Continuously Dirty...

D&M joy Jamie -- I love that story. Those Youngstown Kitchens 30" units are fascinating, but I gather there's a reason why they didn't prevail design-wise--well, aside from standard-sized dishwasher enclosures. Yes, if you haven't had a D&M apart to fish objects out of the pump, or to replace...
