I really want this machine. I already started looking for shipping quotes, but I don't want to pay $600 for a machine from the 70s. Not to mention, I would have to replace the upper wash arm with the longer version. One place online wants almost $300 for the whole new upper rack with the spray arm. I don't know what to do?

Considering a member on here gave me his KDS-19 for free and delivered it to me (very nice guy!), that price is pretty high. And I think mine is probably in as good of condition as this one minus the booklets. There are many of these out there still because they last nearly forever. Good luck with the search though and let us know what you decide to do! Jon |

I paid $50 for my KDS17-A, I found a NOS upper rack on ebay for $20, and paid $125 to have the door panels re-painted. Not bad... Thats an 18 series though, aren't they kinda rare? |

I have a model similar to this one, although 1981, and it had been used a handful of times, mine was 100 dollars three years ago.I was the only one that bid on it.I lucked out buying it off of e-bay with it being local in suberbia. This looks like a great machine, you could even buy new color pannels for it if you were to choose, they are fairly easy to get. Just like the one I have. I Wonder how long it has been since it has been run? These things are hard to kill. If you can get your hands on it, I would.My favorite cycle on it is the sani cycle. It heats the rinse water up to 170 and has Fabulous results with no pre rinsing.
