I watched the whole 21 minutes twice. I really like the look of these machines. Not to mention those 1949 kitchens. |

Modern detergents have progressed as I do not find bits of food on dishes after washing in properly operating vintage machines. The Youngstown like the Frigidaire has glasses on an angle which prevents bits of food from collecting on the top of glasses. The 180 degree water does tend to bake things onto modern plastics (we have very little that is plastic its blasphemous in a turquoise kitchen) but not on glass or ceramic ware. The 180 degree water is wonderful and during the winter when the air is dry, the lid pops up after the cycle and fills the kitchen with delicious moisture. I really like the 10 minute cycle of the Youngstown. I put a switch on the heater so if I plan on using it I turn it on as we are making dinner. The machines have small enough capacity that there really isn't a reason to let dishes sit in the machine after it is loaded, normally just start it up. The Youngstown really can be convenient when you are baking and want clean and dry mixing bowls in a flash. |

Another thing I really like about the Youngstown that I forgot to mention is that since the tub is round and the racks have a slight space between them and the tub, you can drop in huge plates, griddles or baking sheets in that space. My other machines cannot hold items like that without removing the upper rack. Granted I wouldn't want this machine to be my only dishwasher, but it does have its advantages over other styles. |
