Vintage Dishwasher???

 

<span style="font-family: helvetica;">I don't know about the rest of you who are at a "certain" age, but when I see a dishwasher of this time frame my brain doesn't register it as Vintage.  I know technically it is, but it still always gives me pause for a few seconds.  I don't "feel" old enough for this to be vintage.</span>

Vintage

I agree Ralph...but we do have some vintage lines on the forehead, under the eyes, lol.....

New junk

Anyone getting rid of this quality has not gotten a feel for the flimsy crap made today

One can look at several websites filled with "new" appliances and feel no regard for anything, even be dismissive.
'ehhhh, I don't need a new refrigerator. Just let them take the old one away, I'll buy ice blocks and use my cooler from now on."

Then you see a really nice appliance like the one above and it's like the world has gone from black and white and faded to
FULL OF COLOR and beauty.
I'll take it !

What it's no longer $499 like it was in 1986, it's $40 or FREE !
yippeeee!

I get the same feelings bradfordwhite, like rescuing an animal..sometimes in bad shape and brought back to its former best looks and operations.
