MCM Home Tour-Unique Dishwasher

[philcobendixduo]

This video is interesting to watch if you like MCM homes.
The interesting part is the kitchen (at least for me);
A nice Frigidaire built-in oven in Poppy and TWO dishwashers.
Both appear to be "vintage" KitchenAid units until.....
well - I won't spoil the surprise!
Sadly, the washer/dryer are some modern units.
Enjoy the tour!

Well, one of those KAs was a KDS16 and the other a KDS17/18.

Very nice. It could be that the original owners were Jewish hence the two dishwashers.

The commentary is off-putting to say the least! Very negative.

When we visited a Frigidaire dealer & kitchen remodeler in Parma, OH, outside of Cleveland in the early 2000s, he explained that they got permission from Frigidaire to also stock KA dishwashers because people who wanted a really upscale kitchen often wanted a better dishwasher than Frigidaire offered so this is not surprising. As we talked with him, we determined that he had answered our ad in Appliance Service News for dealer literature for old Frigidaire products. Unfortunately, he no longer had a lot of old parts, but I think we bought all that he had.

I would think

If this were a kosher kitchen it would have 2 sinks, I think it was just set up for large crowds Having 2 Kitchen Aids would be great shame they gutted the 16

Amazing!

Thanks, Bill! This could be the solution to the old dishwasher debate we have in our house. Here are some pictures for reference if the YouTube video is ever taken down. A homeowner put the front of a vintage (nonworking) KitchenAid dishwasher on a new, panel ready machine.

I think it's kind of an elegant solution if you have a vintage kitchen.

Kind of a neat home.

Wonder what the real date is they say 1964 of course if that’s the case Poppy kitchen appliances are not original nor is the JennAir downdraft cooktop.

It’s kind of too bad the new owners don’t have better taste the floor in the kitchen is not a good choice nor is the blue countertops if they were going to keep the red appliances which apparently they want to do.

I kind of think the husband is more proud of his wife than it then the house LOL the whole thing may be an ad for a swingers group.

I'm just lusting over that Magnavox Stereo console. It's about a 1962 vintage, and it would have a tube-type chassis and great sound. I wonder if it is still really functional, if so, I'm sure the power supply would have been rebuilt, with new electrolytic capacitors.
