A pre-Dick Van Dyke and pre-MTM Show Mary Tyler Moore is "Happy Hotpoint" and we get to see the Hotpoint double wash dishwasher.

Nice one, Barry! It was interesting to learn how the detergent dispenser worked. No electrical trigger needed.

I'm always taken aback by the shallow tubs in these early machines, especially when compared to today's tall-tubs, in which the open door nearly touches the floor.

Little did Mary Tyler Moore know that Dick Van Dyke and a pair of capri pants would make a star of her in a few short years.

Happy Hotpoint.

Hard to believe she would play a role as a Heartless Cold Mother in Ordinary People.

 

Still one of my favorite Heart Wrenching Movies.

My Aunt and Uncle

Bought a new ranch house in 56 that had a Hotpoint dishwasher sink, she loved it and they used it until 65 when they installed coppertone Frigidaire appliances.
