I've never heard of such a thing but it sure looks like it would have been fun.

Rob and Laura Petrie had one of these....
In their kitchen in the first couple of seasons of the Dick Van Dyke Show. There are even times in various episodes where you see Laura or Rob pushing the button (in the upper right corner) to make the water run. Patrick Coffey

That's a lot like a Dishmaster but more advanced as far as having buttons and stuff.

Sixties Marketing Hype
These were sold, door to door in the 60's. They were marketed as paying for themselves with the powdered milk product you bought from the same company and mixed up in the blender.
It came with a 4 quart mixer on one side, styled after the Bosch, Star Mix or Electrolux with a tube in the center that held a two beater arm that spun around the bowl. There was a shredder attachment that fit into the same bowl.
The blender was pretty conventional and had a plastic decanter.
Each side had it's own motor that was hinged and swung forward for easier access when mixing.
There were automated controls for dispensing water, running the dish brush, releasing soap and a light to sanitize the sink and anything laying in it, like vegetables or the dishrag.
A whole lot of hoohaw that unsuspecting housewives fell for. It's overall performance was dismal at best.

It sold new, in the 60's for $500.

Well spank me hard and call me Shirley! What a fascinating gadget! Gary, do you have one of these?
Do I assume correctly that there was an actual electrical connection in this gizmo? And nobody thought about how dangerous that might be?
Or were the blender and ice cream maker water-powered?
