Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support :

I think it was a temporary stop-gap machine--so KA could have a stainless-tank dishwasher to sell until the KD-24 models came out. The porcelain-on-steel tank 23-series machines must have started looking long in the tooth to many customers, compared to the glittering Bosch, Asko, Miele, and other European machines which were becoming more popular in the 1990s.

Mind you, I'd take a porcelain tank machine any day. But I imagine many customers in, say, 1994, opened the door on a 23-series Superba, saw their grandmother's dishwasher staring back at them, and moved on.

This d/w was part of a grouping of Euro styled appliances offered by KitchenAid in the early 1990's. Hence the name "International Collection".
 
Strange to see..

That this model was given a 23 series designation.
I have the service manuals for the 24 series and the first half is devoted to the American made unit and the second half is on the I.C. model. Yes it did resemble the bosch front panel as we know them, but had many of the usual European style controls and features.
I still like the KDS18E machines which were sold in Europe before the buyout by WP. If anyone wants the brochures to it, I can email them. Can't post it here as it is too large a file.
