This flew off of the NH craigslist page at me - too bad they don't have a "money shot" to see if all the upper rack sections and detergent cup are there!
I am not going to even think of this one because a) I have one and b) hubby has been following the 'My Crazy Obsession' thread and thinks I owe HIM $40,000 for 'loss of enjoyment of basement and garage' LOL CLICK HERE TO GO TO turquoisedude's LINK on Nh Craigslist |

Basements and garages are highly overrated if you don't collect. |

I have a 2500 square foot basement and it is my dream to fill it with dishwashers. I just sent the seller a text message - if he is willing to ship it, I am going to take it.
turquoisedude - thanks for the heads up on finds like this. My dream machine is a kenmore roto-rack - with the "softly lighted consoled and temperature indicator". Preferably a Lady Kenmore. If you come across one of these, I am willing to travel if need be. |

I talked to the guy last night - I am the only one who has responded and he has agreed to ship it, if I can make it convenient. Guess what I'll be researching today.
On a side note, it is going to be a great weekend - 2 reverse rack maytags coming (ok, one is a jenn-air, but no need to split hairs). |

You know, that is a great question - when I call back to talk to him this evening or tommorow I will have to ask. He has told me that it ran fine when he used it, but it has been sitting in his storage unit for about a year to a year and a half now. He also said it was in very good shape.
In case you have ever wondered, I am getting freight quotes ranging from $300 to $600 thus far for shipping. |

Thanks applianceguy
I might be interested in the coffee brown portable. As luck would would have it, I am finding several cool machines back to back right now. Of course, this isn't particularly good for my wallet at the time. I know what you mean about the "softly lighted console" not being so soft. My aunt had a coffee-brown LK that I dream of. I just get a kick out of the ad calling it "softly lit". I have that ad saved as my computer background. I sealed the deal with guy in NH last night. He has agreed to wrap and ship it. I am going to be sending him payment today. So that is one out of the way. Last night I picked up a portable BOL beltdrive maytag. Hooked it up last night and it purred like a dream. I didn't realize how quiet the motors were on those units. The only real noise is from the water spraying in the tub (and that is what we really want to hear anyway, isn't it?) Tommorow I go to Viriginia to pick up a MOL beltdrive built-in jenn-air. I think after I do touch up on the racks of the portable and the built-in, I may rip the two new KA's out of my kitchen and install these. The biggest find, however, has been a Coffee Brown, Top-Load, Portable Lady Kenmore Roto-Rack. It does not have the "softly lighted console", and lord only knows if it works. the craigslist ad for it was over a month old, but when I called last night the wife said they still had it. I need to talk to the husband though about specifics. He never called back - I guess I will try again tonight. Keep your fingers crossed.... |
