I found this list while looking for info on my old Waste King Universal, purchased by my grandmother in 1971 and still in use!

We're looking to replace it because the gaskets are going, and we'd like something more energy- and water-efficient (with Southern California moving into a drought cycle, every little bit will help). I'd assumed we'd just let whoever installs it haul it off, but looking around this board it looks like there are people who'd like a shot at it before it goes to the dump.

We're in the San Bernardino area, if anyone is interested, or knows anyone around here who might be interested.

The dishwasher is (if I read her handwriting in the manual right) model OSS 910-250, white, and still running -- the door hinge is bad, some of the "fingers" on the racks are broken off, and the gaskets are starting to leak, but otherwise it's still working fine.

I can post pictures if anyone's really interested.

Happy Holidays!

Dishwasher!

Please post some pictures of the outside, the control panel, the racks, and the inside. Knowing this group, in short order there will be a great deal of information coming to light regarding cycles, features, dates of production, etc. I can't get it because I'm on the wrong coast, but someone might. It certainly is interesting.

Thanks for thinking of us,
Dave
