1970s waist king dishwasher
They sold a lot of these, they sold particularly well to owners of GE dishwashers that had rusted out that had the cheap plastsol interiors The stainless steel looking interior looked really good too. People who had had a dishwasher rust out in less than 10 years. Sad thing was the tank in this waist king was just nickel plated steel, and they would rust out, particularly in the sump areas. The inner door panel was actually stainless steel.
Noise wasn’t the worst problem with these machines. It was usually hard to keep the pumps running in them and they leaked from numerous points and had mediocre washing performance at best so there wasn’t much to recommend it. We repaired hundreds and we pulled more out for scrap metal when installing new whirlpools and KitchenAid These were also sold under the Thermidor name as Thermidor owned waste king.
