I have a co-worker who has a 17yr. old InSinkerator dishwasher that has gotten stuck in the rinse cycle. Basically, the machine is in great shape. I would like to advise her whether to repair the machine, or get a new dw. She thinks it is the timer and looked on line to find the timer is $150. Any insight as to what I should tell her? Gary P.S. I think her model is all pushbutton, no dials. | ||

In Sink Erator dishwashers were KitchenAids. Definitely fix it, but if she doesnt want to, oh well, another good machine to add to the collection. | ||

Does the timer not advance out of the rinse cycle only? Is there a sani-rinse? Could be a water heating thermostat problem....I wouldn't condemn the timer just yet. If it is all pushbutton then it is a rapid advance timer...they are usually more expensive than the manual advance timers. A model # would help!! | ||

For Sale-Classic Supreme
My co-worker decided to buy a Sears new DW. I told her not to let them take the InSinkerator away. It is a Classic Supreme model, and, if it is only the timer, I think it would make a great dw since the inside is in great shape. I am in Bristol, CT. Would anyone be interested in it(for a price)? Let me know via email. Gary | ||

Sears 'Sucks'????
My co-worker was told (at her point of sale) that she would get someone out today(Friday) to put in the new Sears DW. She called on Wed. to confirm the exact time and was told that it would not be installed till Monday. When she told Sears that she would cancel(since she is having a party on Sunday and needed the DW, they told her that they would be there on Friday morning to install the new DW between 10& 1 p.m). Yes...you guessed it ...a no show. She waited till 1 p.m. and then marched in to her Sears store, saw her salesman and demanded her money back. He made every excuse in the book, but then agreed to refund her money. She thinks that maybe it was an omen, so, she is now going to replace the timer and hope for the best with her 17 yr. old InSinkerator. Anyone else have issues with Sears? A few years back, delivery damaged my entrance floor(with a SXS refrigerator) and Sears ended up paying for a new floor! | ||

Update
My co-worker's bf put the old timer back on.....pushed the light wash and the dw is functioning properly....just now in the dry portion of the cycle without getting stuck in rinse. She told me that the dw got stuck in the rinse portion when she pushed the Cancel button...and waited several minutes, but the DW did not advance to Off. She is afraid to use the Normal cycle now, but, I think if the dw went thru the light cycle fine, it probably will go thru the Normal cycle fine too. | ||

wrote off Sears...
thier salespeople sometimes know little or nothing about the appliance you are interested in. In my experience BestBuy is even worse but that's another story... Although we love our KM/WP model 1602 Tall Tub we won't be buying from them again b/c of a similar experience. Our salesperson (interesting she is no longer there) of course promised we could select a window of time to arrange for delivery - a big fat lie. A computer calls you the night before and tells you what time the next day they will deliver and is a huge window, IRRC something like 'between 8:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m." I didn't cancel the order but what a pain, had to wait two weeks b/c of day their computer selected to mesh with my work obligations. Now our business goes to a local dealer who kindly asked us what day works best for us to deliver our new range! And he matched Sears price without hesitation. IMHO check out your locally owned dealers. Some will give you the service that makes you want to do business with them again. We go to Sears for other things. Love them for tire service for example.

InSinkErator made dishwashers!? You gotta be kidding me. I'm a huge ISE fan and have actually been designing my own dishwashers as if ISE would sell them. I can't believe they actually did? And why'd they stop? Please, I must have pictures and detail of an actual ISE dishwasher. This is a dream come true! John [i'm new :)] | ||
