Suds Saver?

Re:#29

Jeff,
I grew up this way too, only the way our kitchen was configured the process moved from right to left. And since April of 2018 I’ve been doing our dishes this way too, although I don’t fill up the right hand sink with rinse water, but instead rinse the washed dishes with a low stream of hot water.

I find that washing the dishes by hand is strangely calming in these stressful times and I quite enjoy the process. Plus once the dishes are done, they are DONE, no having to go back to the kitchen to unload the DW and put the dishes away, dry off things that didn’t dry all the way or rewash items that didn’t get completely clean in the DW. I doubt that I’ll ever use our DW again.

It is in my A50 TT

but it does use the same valve

but is used backwards in a TT as in a SS

Oh do you want me to post the SS video of my Maytags

When my Father built the home I now own and occupy in '58, he installed a GE tub type dishwasher, this was considered a luxury back then.
The GE was used quite often, however it started to leak, it was replaced by a proper KitchenAid unit made by Hobart which served us faithfully for many years.
As time progressed dishwashing was done by hand, the KitchenAid sat unused for years, as a result it refused to start and run on one occasion.
It was replaced by a Thermador, a beautiful machine to behold, however I'm convinced that the brand is severely overrated, the unit had a host of issues, it sat unused for years as well.
My brother, wanting all the modern kitchen appliances for my mother had a brand new Bosch installed, against my mother's protests, we never used a dishwasher by then.
I estimate that the Bosch was used 4-5 times tops and decided to remove it for much needed cookware storage, my mother had pots and pans scattered all over the house.
Last year I commissioned a good friend and an expert cabinet maker to craft a storage cabinet to match the rest of the kitchen, this is the results minus the hardware, I was waiting for some vintage door/drawer pulls to arrive.

Speaking of suds saver, my Whirlpool technically has the suds saver on, but no suds valve on it. But since the timer is all messed up on it, it no longer works and spent countless hours over the past couple of days messing with it, if I am not able to fix it, may have to wave good bye to them..
