Hi everyone. Stylistically, my favorite dishwasher of all time is the KitchenAid KDS-21. I just love the way that the chrome buttons look, along with the handle and cycle monitor. I would love to learn more about this dishwasher, so I figured what better place to learn about it than here? So anyway, here goes:
Apart from the model number, is there any way to tell the whirlpool KDS-21’s from the Hobart ones? I’ve also noticed in YouTube videos that the KDS-21 seems quieter than the KDS-20 or KDS-18. Will the older pump and motor fit in the KDS-21 and give it that sound? Also, I am aware that the 21 has a lower Sani-temp and only a single rinse. Would it be possible to swap in an older timer that does more than 1 rinse, and an older thermostat that does the higher sani temperatures? Also, what was the difference between the Superba Classic and the Superba Monterey?
Thanks,
