OMG - it's "Never Used" week! This is just beautiful, Greg, where will you put it?
Beautiful find Greg! What is the big chrome knob for----opening the lid of the diswasher?
well ?
well I would LOVE to put it in my kitchen and it would really go with the "decor" but it also would involve some expensive "plumbing" and construction work so I don't have the money right now and don't want to "cut into" my boomerang counters that are only two years young. Yes the knob in front is for starting the cycle and/or turning the DW on. It has a regular, non-grounded plug hanging from the motor, and the drain appears to be a "gravity" drain out of the bottom so I may try to find a way to just rig up the DW and try it out to see if it works OK before installing but that will be down the road ........... I know , I know, I am "not" collecting anymore, LOL ...

Dear Greg,
Just remember, buying something new is not collecting!! Congratulations on your new GE dishwasher/sink combo! Is there a disposer too?

Oh Fabulous Greg, I'm glad someone saw that posting and saved it. It looks just mint!
The two way handle on the front turned in one direction to unlock the lid; very nice since it was top loading and the lid spring loaded. This allowed the lid to be latched down when no dishes needed to be loaded. Once it was loaded and the lid latched, turning it the other way started the cycle. When the cycle finished, the lid popped open for dry. When the lid was opened all the way, the support rod on the right hand side latched into place to hold the lid up.
DishWash Electric!!!
Nice one Greg, definately needs to be in your kitchen later, or the utility/laundry room would be fun, had never had the chance to use any of these mature machines until last with Robert & Greg a few weeks ago, and fell in love with the quick wash n steam cycles,
MINT indeed, enjoy, Mike

Very Nice
Greg! Is the air gap cover metal? I bet it is. Love the
unclad racks.

What a fantastic find. Personally me, myself and I would never use it. I'd want to keep it just that way, unsullied.

air gap ...
jeff, i actually pulled the pics from this website from Robert's post back on 9/12. There is one of the disposal there. Darryl the "air gap" is chrome plated. Even the chrome faucet is never used although the chrome is slightly pitted on both the faucet and air gap. It still has the wood support underneath supporting the motor underneath the DW. The air gap is for the "fill" although regardless it probably allows the machine to "breathe" period but from the back is the copper piping from the fill up to the air gap and then a smaller, narrower copper line down into the side of the machine.

Even though it would look better in my kitchen, I'm glad you got it, Greg!!! Ha, ha. At least it's not that far away and I could always come and visit it!!
