1969 LKM Portable DW

Note, this was a portable DW and while it can be installed under. a cabinet and hooked up to water etc it is about 1/2 " to 3/4" wider than the usual BI DW so it might not fit in most kitchens that were designed for a BI DW.

 

As far as the quality of this D&M built DW, the less said the better.

It looks like they popped the top off and rolled it under the cabinet. I don't think adjustable feet were an option for these.

Not only is it 1/2" wider than an actual built-in, it also projects out about an inch extra and unlike a builtin there is no room in the back for pipes or wires as that would cause it to stick out even further.

And look at the kick space. Instead of the toe space that base cabinets have, one actually has the opposite with the machine sticking out a bit at the base.

We had friends who bought a portable mid-line harvest gold kenmore in 1977, then built a house in 1981 and wanted to build it in.

Love the console, and it's only about an hour from here... It's a little pricey, and quite frankly I don't need anymore toys... Lol I hope it finds a good home
