Kaiser!
As always I enjoyed spending time at Louis and Michaels house. I want to post a few ads on the Kaiser dishwasher!

Appliancelou: What a cool machine. I dont't really pay much attention to dishwashers unless it's something very different and this Kaiser definitly is. Can you explain how it works? Does it actually spin the dishes? How fast does that go? I would think that could be dangerous for glassware. What year is the Kaiser, looks early 50's. Are there any other machines like this new design? The intallation in your kitchen looks very nice. This could be a whole new venture for me. Thanks, Kevin (another Jersey boy, not too far).
There used to be a video of this dishwasher on youtube!
Is it still there?
In order to advance between the different wash and rinse stages, do you open the drain and flush out the tub or does the drain remain open during the entire operation? Does this machine have a timer mechanism?

Thanks for posting the video yogitunes.
This is such a cool design it beckons questions.
Now, that I have watched the video again, it is clear that the drain is shut for each part of the wash process. How does the water recirculate, allowing detergent to wash over all the dishes instead of being flushed out, when it is fed in directly from the hot water supply; rather than being recirculated via a pump (as per electric dish washing)? When the drain is shut during operation, does the incoming water escape the tub via an overflow or does the operator have to monitor how much water enters the tub?
Curious and curiouser.

Great dishwasher!!!!
Thank you for the video. That would go over big these days with all the talk about going green and conserving power.

Thanks!
Have you measured how much water this uses? It sounds like the water was on for the full cycle. I guess each of the jets has an aspirator to suck up the detergent solution in the bottom of the tank to spray it on the dishware. I guess the detergent eventually gets diluted from the fresh water coming in and displacing the original solution via the overflow.
One of the nice things about this machine and some of the other manually-controled dishwashers like the Thor was that their design allowed the user to run a pre rinse to flush the soil and warm up the load, then close the drain and add detergent for the wash. Early electric automatic dishwashers did not automatically do that since they did not have a detergent dispenser to keep the powder dry during a prerinse so the wash temperature was not as high as it should be. I start my KD2P at the first rinse to do this and stop it after that water drains then turn the timer around to the beginning of the cycle to restart it with detergent to get great washing.

Good to see this back in service, such a cool way to wash dishes. Love that you could buy an extra rack for large families!
Neat! I always wondered about how these machines worked. That is a great looking dishwasher, Lou. Thanks for sharing the pictures!!
