Insulation: It has insulation. It was such a snug fit, that I do not really want to wrestle with getting it back out. Honestly, it's not THAT bad. ~Tim | ||

tim, I'm so excited for ya I got goose bumps all oover. that makeshift kickplate panel looks like it belonged there from the beginning. I'm impressed. I think you'll learn to load it in time and you'll be able to get as much, if not more in there than the frigidaire. I'll be glad to lend some loading tips if ya like.

I Approve!!! And I'm Jealous. Very nice. You did a great job on the kickplate. If you hadn't mentioned that you made it, I would have thought that it was the original kickplate. | ||

That sure is a nice KA you picked up. It doesn't look old at all. The control panel looks nice and clean. I love dishwashers that have the silverware basket over to the side like the one you have. It makes loading the machine so much more versatile over the ones who have the huge basket that sits in the middle of the machine. | ||

Tim, I got a couple of comments based upon your loading comments above. First, the silverware basket basically has one spot and that is where it is at the fornt of the bottom rack. Try putting frying pans on the right side facing toward the center. Ther's a knida cutout in the bottom rack for just that purpose--cake pans, fry pans (skillets) and the like. The skillet SHOULD clear the top rack because it will be on the outside of the outer side of the top rack. That's the location where ya put things like broiler pans, tall coookie sheets, and the like. Unfortunately, I've only worked with Imperial and Superbas in this series and never a Custom. The Imperials and Superbas had a collapsable pair of tines at the very back of the row where you put dinner plates, facing toward the front, on the left side. That collapsable pair of tines allowed for other cassaroles, cake pans, and skillets to be placed too, as well as some serving bowls. But I don't think the custom has that collapsable pair of tines. And unfortunately, the photo with the pots & pans in the bottom rack isn't very clear and doesn't show what's loaded on that right side very well.

No matter where you stick them, they get in the way. Tilting the fry pans slightly inward fixes the problem. | ||
