InSinkErator Classic Supreme dishwasher

This is on Craigslist in Detroit; seller is asking $50. The ad says the timer isn't functioning and doesn't show any photos of the interior. Otherwise it looks nice in the photos.

Control buttons. The seller says it is comparable to a Kitchenaid KUDI21DS-1. Would that be considered the Imperial line, which would be a step down from a Superba?

Here is the manufacturer's label. I looked up the owner's manual for the comparable Kitchenaid, and provided a link to it.

For a description of the Pots/Pans cycle, it says "There are three wash periods with two after rinses followed by a heated dry period." So does that mean the two rinses occur at the very end, after the last wash cycle? I would like that.

I also like the chromed buttons, as they should hold up well to cleaning. The only thing I'm not crazy about is that it doesn't have a top sprayer.

The buttons are the shape that KA used on series 20 machines, and this machine still has the KA latch instead of the $250K side-to-side type.  I'm leaning toward it being a 20 clone as opposed to 21.  I guess you'd have to investigate whether it has a reversing motor or not for a definitive identification.

 

These Classic Supremes are most similar to the KDI (Imperial) and/or KDP (Patrician) models, which are the next ones down from the TOL Superbas.

Pots/Pans

It's Pre-Wash, rinse, wash, wash, rinse. All the rinses are not save for post-wash. this is a 1 final rinse machine with a purge.
