White Consolidated Industries swallowed D&M up. to my knowledge, the only machines still using that mechanical design are the 18" dishwashers under the Frigidaire & Kenmore brands. The Kenmoer offers a conversion kit and Frigidaire has both built-in and portable. Couldn't find 18" models on Roper or Estate web sites. My parents' assisted living apartment has an 18" Roper that's about 6 years old, again D&M. It was actually kinda nice to go down memory lane with this machine when I ran it a time or two.

Our Kenmore 18" DW is made by Frigidaire and makes the exact same "sounds" as described. It pauses after filling (no motor) and then WOOSH, there is a loud roar as the motor starts and sounds of some items clanking as they are hit with the initial blast of water. Unit is over six years old and so far hasn't given any trouble. Cleans quite well, all things considered but is quite loud. L. |
