I was going through the files today and doing some fall cleaning and found these pics of Steve's (gyrafoam) visit to Omaha a couple of weeks ago. We were so anxious to post pics of the machines we brought home, we forgot about these! We unpacked and ran the 1973 Kenmore Roto-Rack dishwasher for it's very first load. Here is Steve proclaiming the joys of automatic dishwashing with Cascade...

Delay, Delay, Delay... We did several loads of clothes around the dishwasher's delay for heating the final rinse water. We were afraid we'd have to go to bed and get up in the morning to find the dishwasher still heating that water. The incoming temp wasn't THAT cool, but there is ALOT of water in this machine to heat! |

You're right Tom, the Kenmore really does get the whole load of dishes and the machine really hot. I should take some temp readings on the sani-rinse water from the KA dishwasher while it's being pumped out. Even though it starts out at 180'ish in the sump, I'll bet it ends up at 150-160F by the pump out a minute later... This weekend at the sales, I finally found a Sunbeam Coffeemaster stand for the top-bowl. I've been looking forever! |

No slaps needed, I didn't send it to the Toyota factory - it's right here on ebay, safe and sound. The best part is, it can be yours!

Well Jason, would it kill you more if it went to become a Toyota next year? Steven, that dishwasher aws the next to the TOL Lady Kenmore. The beautiful Avocado built-in shown yesterday was a Lady Kenmore. The only differences were: all push-button with rapid advance timer; selectable 12 or 26 minute dry and a Power Wash Cycle. Every other cycle and feature were the same. |

It would never make it to the Toyota plant, the machine has too much metal and no plastic. |

I might consider grabbing that '63 Kenmore...definitely more reasonable than the Kelvinator...LOL!! That would make BD Kenmore #3 and would definitely be a keeper! |
