Wow - we actually had one for a short while when I was a brat! They were not really good performers, as I recall, but OK for a load of dishes to be washed immediately after a meal. The ol' Viking top-loader was seen as a huge upgrade in our kitchen...
Tom's idea of using a modern liquid gel type dishwasher detergent might indeed be the way to go with a machine like this! So, if anyone here buys it, let us know.... LOL
Eddie - I remember the 'back page' ads for these in BH & G, too! |

Many years ago, I found one of those at a flea market for my ex's aunt. Of course, I had to hook it up and use it before giving it to her. Once you got the hang of it, they worked surprisingly well. Not bad for a single person or two people who don't have the room for a regular dishwasher.
Unfortunately, the one advertised on ebay is missing the top rack that held cups. Ron |

We had one of them in the early 70's when I was growing up. We got it at "Two Guys" Department store. In 76 it was replaced with a GE Potscrubber. The one for sale is a new design so it may not have the cup rack. Ours had the round silverware basket then went around the center spray post and the cup rack sat on top of that. this one looks like it has a " T " sprayer that may wash down from the top. What i use to do is disolve Cascade powder in a cup of very hot water and pour that in the soap dispenser while washing the dishes and got great results in ours. The instructions said to put in regular dish soap and run the water for 10 minutes until the suds were gone. with my Cascade solution it never took that long, saving water and we got clean spotless dishes that flashed dried in a few minutes when you removed the lid and without pre rinsing.
