I'm thinking of going to get this one...it's just "over the border" and not too far.

I'm not familiar with this model at all. If anyone has any knowledge or information they would like to impart...

I like the how plain it is, and how it hardly looks used!

Thanks!

Guy

Guy,
My 2 cents on this machine, get it. it looks to be from the late 60's to the early 70,s based on the controls of the machine and backsplash. Whirlpool made a great dishwasher at this time and this being a topload it is a rare one. Go for it and enjoy it.

I had a fraternity brother whose parnts house had model similar, higherr up with wash arm under the uuppper rack. (1975-1977) These dishwashers were a hurricane in a box. Noisy, but as a dishwasher lover, right up my alley.
 
Whirlpool built top load dishwasher

This dishwasher is the middle of the line model. It was built between 1964 and 67, whirlpool redesigned the top load dishwasher and made it a little smaller in 68 and discontinued that one after 1970 that one had a porcelain interior.

This should be a very good performer. It does have an upper wash arm, the downfall of this dishwasher is it had an all pot metal aluminum pump and it didn't tend to be real long term durable. The good news is this dishwasher. Looks like it was hardly used so it may have some good use left in it.

Had a Whirlpool 80 series top-loader, similar to this machine inside, many eons ago. It performed flawlessly and lasted more than 20 years.
 
WOW ~

Small world and very rare coincidence. I got one last year, same mint condition, although the fill valve did not operate and leaked. I just did a load yesterday after text-chatting back and forth with Stevet. I was able to repair the leak--all the plumbing is in the back which opens up easily--, but the valve remains open, so I played wringer washer with it, opening and closing the faucet during fill periods. It's as loud as an organ; I love it!

The machine is enormous, and it cleans like a hurricane. The giant microwave turntable slides right in with headroom to spare, same with the old navy blue speckled roaster. All the Bob-load people will be cheering at its capacity, big as an old square deep freezer.

I live in Hamburg, a burb of Buffalo; Lancaster is another one. How cool to find two of these behemoths in the same neighborhood, more or less.
 
Four screws two on each side and the back panel flips upward. Good luck with this Gut; you’re gonna love it.
