Vintage Miele dishwasher NEVER USED!

[revvinkevin]

 

 

That is amazing, again CONGRATS!

 

Rod, does this dishwasher have a hot & cold water connections or cold only?   I know it's fairly common for a European clothes washers to have only a cold fill and heat the water itself, but I have never seen a DW that does this, if in fact this one does.

 

On that same note, I've never seen a DW that offered a "cold rinse" option!

 

Also very interesting that a dishwasher has an electric door release (another first for me), but then that's Miele for you!

Here's mine in action, going without a service since 198

On the Universal 65 programme

I meant service free since '83

This was installed at my place in 1983. Only modification I've done is install the water proof system with solenoid at tap end. The electronics just never die, especially compared to later Mieles.

I also got a microwave at the same time. Again, no problems. Love this stuff.

Very nice indeed Rod

Very nice indeed there Rod.

Who couldn't resist a never used appliance! Hope it works fine for you.

Cheers

Cold rinse

Hi RevvinKevin,

The 'cold rinse' is like 'rinse & hold'. The dishwasher has only one inlet hose and can be connected to either a hot or cold water supply. It has an 1800 watt heating element.

Leon it's really amazing when you come across a vintage product that has never been used. I'm sure you will find a vintage washing machine new in a box some day. Your collection brings back some childhood memories for me as many of our neighbours had the machines you have in your collection.

BNIB appliances

Hi Rod,

I did actually manage to snare one BNIB (brand new in box) appliance: a 1990's Hoovermatic twin tub.

Certainly not as vintage as your dishwasher though.

Also, if you're ever in town and keen to view the collection, just let me know.

Cheers
Leon

What a Beautiful Machine.

Just look at the thought that was put in to the design and placement of those Spray Arm Nozzles.

The "Shaped" Sprays always look better made than those punched out round holes.

Congratulations on such a beautiful machine.

What a handsome machine.

Almost sounds like a KDS 18 or 20 series when it's filling and the pump is priming.

Love those Spray Arms especially that lower one with those specifically shaped and directed nozzles.

Back in service

My parent's 1994 G590 starting playing up so I decided to give them my G 560 dishwasher as their daily driver. I have connected it to hot water which is set at 50°C (120°F) so it shortens the cycle. They normally use Economy 55 and it takes less than one hour. That cycle uses a respectable 24 litres of water and cleans really well. I have put in a baked-on lasagne dish and it came out spotless. Need to reglue the door release button cover.
