Very cool! I can't believe what excellent condition it's in. |

I wrote to the seller this afternoon and just received a reply back. She already has an offer for an amount which is a bit highter than I would have made based on my past purchases of Electric Sinks. On the other hand, being from Illinois, I need to keep travel and transportation costs in mind as well. Mike As an aside, just 3 weeks ago, I brought home this 1949 or 1950 Hotpoint Electric Sink from the nearby city of Normal. Unfortunately, it is in very poor condition. The faucet has been replaced, and the metal around the Red H logo is loose; the plastic around the flip-up doors left and right of the faucet is broken; porcelain is gone in the bottom of the sink bowl; plastic pieces around the door are broken; the Impeller is gone!; 2/3rds of the racks are gone; rust is prevelant; drain tube from the tub to the drain valve is rotten; and so on. Likely I will just keep this machine for a while, and then part it out for what I can salvage. |

Welllll, the old used-up machine pictures juxtaposed next to the pristine good condition machine pictures does make one appreciate the finding of a low-use machine. |

Hey Mike, what are the flip-up doors to the sides of the faucet for? Also, am I correct in assuming the sink tops of these are enameled steel instead of cast iron? |
