Indeed it is
If I have my nomenclature correctly, this is an "Imperial" model. One cycle, uses about 9.5 gallons of water to wash for approx. 28 minutes. I got (from the same series) the "Custom" last week. It actually came with the original owner's manual which detailed the difference between these two units, as well as the "Superba Varicycle". It is supposed to be fully operational and it great condition.
At least this one will be easier to get than the last one - it's only about 40 miles from my house. | ||

i find out tommorow
Don't know yet if it is a gravity or pump drain...I am hoping for pump. At this point, all I know is that it is fully operational.
I'll have more pics tomorrow. We redid the kitchen last year and it currently has 2 stainless steel kitchenaids (about a year or so old now - the last ones with the hydrosweep style spray arm). They are ok, but they have some weird design issues. Namely, the pour all the steam out of a vent on the side of the doors which is causing the finish on my cabinets to chip. Of course steam only comes out during the wash..those units don't dry worth a damn unless I open the door 2 or 3 times during the dry cycle. They also have some cycle logic that makes no sense. I am giving serious thought to making these two 50's kitchenaids my dsaily drivers... | ||

This is the KD-10 - My mother had this exact machine - It did have a gravity drain and lasted from 1950 until about 1968. I washed lots of dishes in this baby. Great find !!!! | ||

Did you know
Frigidaireguy -
I see that you are in Winston Salem. That's actually where I found this DW. I had free time at work yesterday so I started purusing the craigslists for Charlotte, Raleigh, and Winston Salem. The post for this dishwasher was just over a month old, and the guy was asking way too much ($400), but I thought what the hell and contacted him anyway. He responded back in under 5 minutes telling me that he had gotten tired of all the scammers on Craigslist and had given up and donated it to an architectural salvage place in Greensboro. A few calls later to confirm where it was, and I had them slap a hold on it for me. Now, if I can just get my lazy tired ass in the shower, I am on my way to go get it. | ||
