Another Superb Find

[countryford]

The little portable tv that is on top of it in the first pic, looks like a Sony. Do you remember how much they were asking for it? I would so love to have that tv.

Just beautiful! Just like new! I'm so glad you were able to rescue it and give it a good home!

 

[pulltostart]

Whoa!

I'm always amazed at how well-preserved items exist in your neck of the woods. What is it with the Minneapolis mindset? Down here in the South the motto is definitely 'abuse and discard'.

Congratulations on a sweet find. And, that gas range next to it (in the sale) looked to be interesting, too.

Pretty amazing Robert and Fred what you guys find, but I can't believe you left that beautiful Magic Chef gas range behind, LOL.

 

From the looks of things I don't think they cooked or washed dishes, in all likelihood it was all that eating out that killed them.

 

Smitty and I will be in Minneapolis this coming weekend, hope to see you guys, John.

Wonderful!

That dishwasher can take the flower pattern right off the dish! Looks like the only thing it DIDN'T come with is the box it came in from the condition it's in. Look at the shine on that filter! Wow!

Considering that you now own a pair of 906s, I think at least a little luck has fallen your way!

Estate sales still hold some treasures to be found! There's nothing like a almost never used dishwasher. Great find.

There's nothing like a almost never used dishwasher.

Correction to that, Greg...

 

There's nothing like an almost never used top of the line, 32 year old KitchenAid dishwasher.  

 

I don't know who was more excited yesterday, Robert or I, when we were giving it the N-o-M wipedown to remove the layer of dust that had accumulated on it.

Thanks guys for the well wishes. Yes this would be the newest dishwasher I would consider using by far. I think we will play with it for a short period and then I'll install it downstairs. I would really like to keep this machine in pristine condition to be able to use it as a daily driver at sometime in the future. We have excellent vintage daily drivers now, but those machines wont last for ever, so it will be good to have new ones waiting for their turn.

As a Chef in Commercial Kitchens for Life, and as many KitchenAids that I own,

This is the last as you know of the Holy Grails of Pure Hobart.

I apologise of my AM 14 "Spitting at You" but this machine you found is the last of the Great Cleaners from Hobart.

Enjoy this machine and don't be ever afraid to throw anything at it.

[gansky1]

Yes, that's right, a VINTAGE almost never used dishwasher is most fun!

 

[pdub]

Not much more that I can add but I must say you have a knack for finding these things, don't you!

There is nothing better than a barely or never used vintage appliance find.

Congratulations!

This was the last of the Non-Reversing motor for drain.
I love how the timer does not waste any time for drain / fill. It is all about getting the job done.
