A white WC400 was my first dishwasher. So far, my best dishwasher. I Bobloaded it on a regular basis, and unless the item was BURNED on, instead of just baked on, everything cleaned the first time. Thank you for scanning. Lawrence/Maytagbear |

Brent, no it wasn't. The description mentioned the cycle was also plastics. The heating element was not energized at all during the cycle and at the end of hte final rinse, the cycle terminated without drying heat. As I mentioned above, I knew at some point Maytag rearranged buttons/names on the TOL and the Pots & Pans Cycle ended up with an extended main wash and added heat and heated dry. They just switched the no-heat option cycle to china & plastics. |

These machines look very much like the pushbutton dishwasher we had in the early '70's. Did Maytag make them or was it someone else? The MW we had look identical to these Maytags - and yes, they were loud. |

The "direct drive pumps" were very nice sounding. I always thought they sounded like a washing machine washing. The pump out was kind of loud. Not too bad though. Fun Dishwashers that is for sure! |

I was also surprised to see that the Pots & Pans cycle added no heat during the cycle (in the first brochure) when Maytags made their debut.
In the second brochure, the Pots & Pans cycle added heat, which only makes sense. Why would anyone create a cycle for non heat- resistant plastics and pots & pans? |

Thanks so much for these scans growing up in Orlando FL we had the WU600 in harvest gold, it lasted 20 years and held a ton of dishes and washed flawlessly. Was curious about the configuration of the top load portable,it was not seem to have the top racks that folded out like the GE and Kitchenaid. Did you have to remove the top rack to load the bottom rack. Also this top load had a bigger footprint than the competition did it hold the same amount of dishes as the front load Maytag?

eugne, in the early days of starting to offer cycles other than on, one of the options was some sort of pots & pans or utensil/utility cycle. The KitchenAid VariCycle (Superba) KDS14 was their firsst. The utensil cycle had a 5 minute dry. Our 1959 Waste King did prewash, wash, and 1st rinse. Someon posted a GE Impeller with button and the pots/pans cycle had no heat dry. I believe the premise was to wash and soften up soil so it could be easily removed without being dried on at the end of the cycle. If you will notice on the Caloric Intake thread, the machine with the pots & pans cycle did the same thing, no head. it was even a wash & two rinses I believe. Gaffers & Satler did the same thing in the 1980 dishwashers with Pots & Pans cycle. Even the cookware cycle on our 1968 Waste King did a ocmplete wash cycle and the last rinse was 7 minutes long to finish scrubbing. Then there was a no heat dry. I think all that changed with the advent of the Power Scrub and Soak & Scrub cycles as well as the Power Scour cycles on KA, GE, and WP machines, respectively. |

Wonderfull scans. Thank you so much. It seems like the flatware basket is a long thin one, or a split basket, in the first top-loading portable model. Not the regular Maytag flatware basket. Am I wrong? Thanks, Serge |

"It seems like the flatware basket is a long thin one, or a split basket, in the first top-loading portable..."
Well spotted. The early ones also had a nifty dual detergent dispenser that maybe we can persuade John LF to post a picture of. Either way, I don't think there has ever been a dishwasher with a better designed racking system. Even far superior to their own racking system in the front loaders. |

Yes we do have one of the very first of these it has the two separate motors one for drain and one for circulation of wash and rinse water. I will say it was a very interesting machine and one of the largest inside capacities of any home machine Except the 30" GE roll outs and the eil fated 30" Day-cores. I never used the machine to actually wash dishes as we used it for years in the shop to wash all sorts of refrigerator and other parts in. I was never really all that impressed with the loading of MT reverse rack machines, but this TL machine you could take out the top rack and load all sorts of unusual items in it.
