1966 GE Dishwasher

Only thing wrong

With a GE or Hotpoint back then was they were LOUD!!!!I thought they washed fine.

Again, Wow!

It's cool to see this thread, again.

There is a tendency to focus on one's own favorite design as the 'best' and to forget that others can be as good or even better.

My experiences with KA (pre-Whirlpool, I can't think of anything from that era of as poor quality, not even D&M) are so-so. They are too temperamental for my taste.

GE/Hotpoint of this era, on the other hand - they worked!

Love the rinse-aid dispenser. Just one tiny step away from fully automatic.

Heh Norgeway, you are quite right. Often when our dishwasher was on, my father often closed the door to the kitchen because the dishwasher was so loud. However up until the christmas eve of 1998 the dishwasher worked perfectly fine.

During the last week Before christmas my family noticed the machine leaked a Little water. But it was so little water so no one cared much about it.

One of the first things that fascinated me about our front loading GE dishwasher from 1965 was how the detergent cup would retract itself in when you turn the dial had tons of fun with that
