WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!! LUCKY YOU!!! This is a great find. Enjoy it.

 

[chachp]

Stunning!

<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">I'd love to get my hands on one of those.</span>

 

[turquoisedude]

So minty fresh and clean!  What a great find, Jon.  

 

So, will you try to use those Cascade coupons (ducks and runs....)

 

[nmassman44]

Very nice! That dishwasher is gorgeous! And the porcelain just gleams. Maytag built a good dishwasher back then and the quality certainly shows.

 

[askolover]

That's so nice! I know you are proud! I was so proud when I found my NEW KUDI23 earlier this year. Wish I could find one of these too, my current Jetclean from '97 cleans awesomely!

 

[whitetub]

I would trade my Bosch for that dishwasher. I used to have the Maytag version, from the 70's.

I just noticed the CONSERVA Wash cycle. I guess it's the Jenn-Air version of the Light cycle. Funny name.

 

[jakeseacrest]

Jealous!

 

[tomturbomatic]

Conservawash is for cleaning fundamentalists and Talibangelicals. You take out the top rack so that they can be crammed in. With the wash arms above and below, they receive fair and balanced cleaning. During drying, they receive my wish: roasting in a hot place.

Are you going to keep it in the box for the built in look?

 

[jetaction]

Love it!

Congratulations Jon!

You will be intercepted at the foot of the Bridge.

Better get a State Police Escort with that in the back of your truck.

That shiny Porcelain makes my eyes water when I stare at the glisten too long.

Gorgeous Stunning Machine. Can't wait to see it and load it !!!

We'll have to Skype with Bob(appnut) for his first proper "BobLoad".

 

[appnut]

Aww Eddie.  thank you!!!  No manual available online via JennAir site. 

 

[aladude]

I'm very jealous! Enjoy!

Congratulations on getting such a great score! Love the sound of that machine when it's running. You can tell by that sound that whatever is in there will be coming out clean.

 

[jetcone]

Thanks Everybody

I had the late 70's Maytag version and loved it. I can't wait to get this puppy installed!

 

Eddie he has another one, the sister to this machine ,it is used but in the box and I've seen it, it looks mint too. Only asking $100. Let me know if you or anyone else is interested.

 

 

Tom LOL I'm going to use Conserva Wash FIRST THING like any good Palinite would!!

 

[bajaespuma]

I am interested. Is it the one that's still on Craigslist in the Milford area?

 

It's basically the Jenn Air version of the WU-702 that I've been trying to find for years. Small but annoying differences.

 

[jetcone]

Yes Ken

its the one in Milford, the guy is really nice to deal with. I'll email you his phone number do you think you will call because I need to tell him to let it go? I asked him to keep it until I get back to him

So Jon, which KitchenAid dishwasher are you retiring? These Maytag built dishwashers hold a ton of dishes and clean up a mess like no other. Plus it doesn't take 2 hours to get a load washed.

New Jenn-Air Reverse Rack DW [ Maytag ]

Hi Jon, are you installing this at home or at the cape, Be sure to try out the Conserva-Wash cycle, when CRs used this cycle in comparison tests the MT DW went from the top of the list in cleaning to the BOTTOM of the list. Maytag was trying to have the lowest numbers on the DOE energy guide and they ended up shooting themselves in the foot because CRs was testing DWs at the time on the cycle that the EG was based on and MT had just one wash and two rinses and it left a mess.

 

MT RR DWs were certainly pretty good DWs in their day in terms of cleaning, in the time period from about 1970-1990 I would put them at #5 of the 5 best DWs built in overall cleaning and ability to hold large loads of dishes which is a pretty impressive score when you consider all the different poor performing DWs out there during this time period.

 

My top picks

 

#1 Whirlpool-Kenmore Ultra-Wash [porcelain tub DWs ] from 1984-1990

 

$2 Kitchenaid KDS-18 through the KDS-20

 

#3 GE early 80s DWs with multi-orbit wash arms, extra deep top racks and filtering systems, GSD900-1200-2800 etc.

 

#4 WP DWs 1970 on before the power-clean pump

 

#5 Maytag RR DWs from 1970-1988
