Sorry, don't mean to offend anyone but take a look at this kitchen. Even the blue KA dishwasher is fabulous. I would love to have this kitchen.

That is a St. Charles kitchen, very popular around here in the late 50's and early 60's. They did everything matching if you wanted it, from the cabinets to the appliance panels. I've even seen a Sub-Zero with matching panels - in warm and inviting Tawny Gold! They are very optimistic about their pricing but do state "make an offer" so I guess there is room for negotiation. | ||

St. Charles Kitchens
Were made here in St. Charles, Il. The plant is closed down now, torn down and made into a Cadillac dealership. You find many St. Charles kitchens in this area. I remember the ads for St. Charles kitchens (always with a flush KitchenAid dishwasher) - boy that was class. I would be interested in the link to the *new* St. Charles kitchens to see what they are like.

Never Mind
I found the link in the ad. That's the old St. Charles script name so it looks as though they may resurrect it. I can't understand how they went out of business in the first place. When I was at my Marketing Director's house in Aurora, she specifically pointed out on the tour that the kitchen was a "St. Charles kitchen" put in by her folks years ago. Still looks fabulous.

Short Cycle Times
My daily driver is a KDS-17. Wham-bam thank you m'am she is done in no time and the dishes come out dry! The KDI-14P is a backup in my laundry room off the kitchen. You are right about the short cycle times on these older machines. That's because they used a lot more water. This one has the heater and the better detergent dispenser. I haven't ever found one I like as much. I had a new KitchenAid SS tall tub TOL and it took forever and the dishes didn't dry. When my plumber put in the KDS-17, he said he hadn't ever taken out a new TOL dishwasher and put in a 30 year old machine. I told him he hadn't been to my house before!
