Hobart KitchenAid KDS-18. Tub still has a shine on it, as well as the hydro-sweep. Worth picking up.

The seller is more than likely confiused - that ain't no Kenmo! 
This is a dishwasher Wes should be going after!!!!!!
Bob, I agree with you. It looks minty fresh, and wow, it's one rare bird, being a German Hobart machine, eh? LOL.
My Ex of 10 years lives down there in Athens the funny thing is I was going down there anyway to get out of the house.He is going to pick it up for me I have never had a Kds 18 I have always had the kds 21 models do they wash as good as the 21 series?Can you get parts for it?It does look in great shape for a German made Kenmore(LOL)
It seems to be the consensus among those who have owned them or are otherwise in the know, that the 18 series was the best performing dishwasher Hobart ever made. I think you can expect excellent results, and congratulations on snagging what appears to be a KDS-18 in like-new condition.
Some parts for the 18 series can be found through Hobart because they share components with Hobart's commercial machines from the same period, and you may find that more is available than for the 21 and later series, since those were no longer Hobart products and hence Hobart doesn't provide parts or support for them.

Definitely a Hobart machine. Kitchenaid KDS-18 to be sure.

you will absolutely love this dishwasher I had one for 15 years and my neighbor had one that lasted 21 years .. best machine ever
I called all day about that dishwasher and the lady told me that somebody is coming in the morning at 8 to pick it up and if for some reason the don't come she will call my Ex who lives 2 miles from her.I have NO LUCK,,,LOL She is an old lady and I am going to call her tomorrow just in case she lost my number.My Ex thinks I am crazy but he can't talk sense he has had about 400 cars in his life.
Well, it might not be a bad idea to position yourself for securing the genuine Hobart KDC-21 from your other thread as a back-up plan. That would be a sweet machine too.

Well? What Happened to it?
Wes, did you get the machine? Or did you finally decide on the KDC21 in the other thread?
I won't ask about the National Disposer since you never responded to me on it.
