GE Pullout dishwasher
My folks 1960 Ohio ranch had a GE Kitchen, pink wall oven, stainless steel cooktop, and a pink dishwasher, matched the pink oven. The ad above, from 57, looks damn near exactly the same, one large dial at the upper right, and the sliding doorlock. My folks could barely change a light bulb, so when it had troubles in about 72, and my dad was the accountant for a condo builder, he just swapped it out for a "contractor grade" front loader POS. Had I only known I'd eventually find this hobby!

Loving this! David,
Thanks for trying and keep 'em coming. That last one made my morning coffee even more heavenly than usual. If you ever want a custom made graphic of any machine, just ask me and send a picture.
Jim thanks for reposting those Empress pictures. Tell the docent at that museum if he/she ever wants to fly me out there to clean up their dishwasher all they have to do is whistle. Consumer Reports was unusually unfair to this machine--they claimed it didn't have appreciably more than the standard dishwasher of the time (which leads me to believe that, like me own sainted Mum, the CU test technicians DIDN'T even bother to read the manual) and they also downgraded it for being cumbersome to open and close which leads me to believe that not only did those knuckleheads not read the manual, no one was even a little curious what the little red button marked "OPEN" did!
Hey David, "Greedy" here again. There was a fold-out brochure for GE Filter-Flo washers for 1970 ( literally, my FIRST brochure, that featured the first "HEAVY DUTY-18" models. It was about 10" by 4", closed and opened up, road map style. It had a purple front cover and the picture of a Male Model with a caption that read something like..."and he'll like the lint-free look". Ring a bell? Mine is either lost forever or somewhere in my basement hidden away in the bowels of a packing crate that I've yet to find. (and if I ever find them I'm going to give you a run for your money).
