Eco-Friendly this isn't... This sucker uses some water too......in fact while it's running, it even SOUNDS like it's getting the job done! Lots of water roaring and sloshing around inside. The picture is actually deceptive. The water fills to touch the heating element. It covers the top of the...

Power Shower... It even has a 3rd water jet in the roof. I didn't know they still used these?!

Upper Rack Even it has a wash-arm. Racks can fold down for more flexibility in loading too

Filter... I'm assuming it's self-cleaning? I've never had to do anything to it since I've owned the house.

Lower Wash Arm The lower wash arm. Notice the intentions in the roller tracks for the wash arm to pass through...

Door Open... Anyone know what that funky squiggly bar is for on the front part of the upper rack? I don't know what useful purpose it could possibly serve! The one thing I HATE about this dishwasher is having the silverware baskets in the door. Whoever designed that should be SHOT!!!!

Better picture of the Timer Controls Don't know why the pictures are blurry today..... What is "Accu-Wash Sensor"?

This house was built in 1999 and still has the original Whirlpool Gold dishwasher that it came with. I've not been able to find out some of the info I'm curious about on it, so I figured it was finally worth taking the time to post pictures and questions. It's got the electronic timer, the...

I'd list the Direct-Drive Shredmores here, but I'll catch flack for it, and besides......I've used one worse! I had a lemon of a DD Shredmore and it's left a really awful taste in my mouth regarding those machines. I simply don't like them, they're too rough on clothes, particularly the...

GE Part Numbers... Here's the GE part numbers: Thrust Bearing Kit (Plastic and bronze spacers inside clutch): WH4X91 Clutch Shoe Set (Set of 2): WH7X110 The dates of manufacture on the kits I bought were 5/20/99 and 8/31/01 respectively. I don't know if GE still makes the parts or not, but...

I found them on eBay from a repair store that was closing about 4 months ago. If you want the GE part number, I kept the packaging for future reference and I'll be happy to give you the numbers of the thrust bearing kit and the clutch shoes if you want it.

No clutch burn here! The machine is completely capable of handling that hellacious load. But if you watched, the clothes DID roll over! Even though that poor thing was PACKED. I normally don't load it even half that much......I prefer to get water moving between my clothes! Besides......doing...

Killing two birds with one stone... So here's yet another video..... Part 1: Overloaded the CRAP out of this machine to show the ramp agitator rolling clothes over. Part 2: Spin with overloaded machine to check for wash-down of the tub seal. <object width=660 height=525><param name=movie...

Oh weak.......the UK Hotpoint does a whimpy neutral drain! Where's the fun in that! From looking at it, it seems the tub in the Hotpoint is smaller than the US GE's, it certainly seems narrower anyway. Maybe that's why the 610 RPM spin on the GE is still pretty effective? The clothes sure paste...

Ramped vs. Straight agitator... I don't have the 4 vane, but I do have one of the USELESS 6 vane agitators for this machine. With the straight agitator, it will wash well if the machine is underloaded, but if it's loaded anywhere near capacity or overloaded, it will just splash water around...

If I'm not mistaken, the US Filter-Flo's are in the 600's. They've got a pretty wide tub though, and the final spin is VERY long, so the clothes come out about as dry as they do out of my front loader which spins at 1000 RPM. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.....

Man it must be great to live in another state.......i swear......if you want something nice down here you have to truck it in from somewhere else! I can't ever seem to find anything other than "Vintage" or "Anteek" DD Shredmores.........NO THANKS!

Glad to know the dramatic spin is normal! The clutch itself looked brand new inside other than the completely borked shoes. Everything about it works better. Pumps faster, recirc flume shoots further, agitation is faster, spin is faster..... I should have rebuilt that clutch LONG ago!
