Superba by Hobart dishwasher - $99 (Boston )

This vintage Superba by Hobart dishwasher Model KDS17 was one of the best at its time.
It needs nothing.
Take if for a regular use or for parts.

The second dishwasher front pic is that of a KDS-18.

The interior shots and racks are a 17 series and the spec tag says KDS-17.

Only the 18 series had those operation light configured vertically. The 17 series were horizontal.

KDS 18 face on a KDs 17 box?

So, Eddie... did someone put a KDS 18 door on a KDS 17 case? I wonder if this was someone trying to upgrade or just repair using a compatible door?

Correct Phil.

They lifted a pic of an 18.

The cycle selector buttons on the 17 and 18 were the same. It is Action Indicator lights that are different and the door latch handle changed on the 18-20 series. I believe the door latches were the same on the 16 and 17 series.

And the 15 series was the major design change to the HydroSweep from Big Blue the old Cast Iron arms, new racking configuration and also from the start of the 15 series the gravity drain was discontinued.
