 I spotted this while trolling on-line ads in Ontario and I'll be darned if I can clearly identify who made it.
It's a Canadian brand of long-ago, Moffat, and I'm guessing the machine is from the early to mid-1970s. The pictures aren't great but for the life of me, this looks like it's a Westinghouse clone. Or could it be a pre-WCI Kelvinator? I'm confused...
What is throwing me for a loop is that Moffat's dishwashers had several sources over the years, including D&M, but at around this time, I had always thought they were Norges. In the late 70s Camco gobbled up Moffat and their entire appliance line were Hotpoint clones.

Now I can be sure.... It's a Westinghouse.... LOL
Thanks for the input everyone! I went back into my own photo archives and found this shot of my mint-condition Westinghouse portable - those detergent dispensers are the same for sure. The wash tower on mine is different for sure, so perhaps this one I found in Ontario is older. I was told my portable is a 1971 model but now I'm thinking it's newer...
Dang now I've gotta get that out of storage to play with it again!
