 Well tonight I hosted a dinner party of 10 for my Grams 82nd birthday and while I was at it decided to get some pictures of her dishwasher. It is a TOL 1966 General Electric, it was installed when doing a new kitchen in their victorian home. Being General Electric dealers it was only natural they got the TOL model in the all new fashion color Avacado.

loved your pics!
i'm a big dishwasher collector and i've always loved those g.e. mobile maids since i was a kid! i've got a few top load models that use the vertical pump/motor like the one in your thread here. i also have one front load model similiar to your grandmother's machine although mine is not top line. does not have the silver shower.
looking at your thread is giving me motivation to put mine back together and try it out! tore it down last year for a rebuild after i bought it. pic shown below. thanks again for the thread! those old g.e.'s are great!

Again, Wow! It's cool to see this thread, again. There is a tendency to focus on one's own favorite design as the 'best' and to forget that others can be as good or even better. My experiences with KA (pre-Whirlpool, I can't think of anything from that era of as poor quality, not even D&M) are so-so. They are too temperamental for my taste. GE/Hotpoint of this era, on the other hand - they worked! Love the rinse-aid dispenser. Just one tiny step away from fully automatic. This post was last edited 05/29/2017 at 07:59 | ||

One of the first things that fascinated me about our front loading GE dishwasher from 1965 was how the detergent cup would retract itself in when you turn the dial had tons of fun with that | ||
