I can't believe that I won the eBay auction for the GE MOBILE MAID for the minimum opening bid! All I have to do now is pick it up!! Now, a more important issue - I bought a GE SU60S1 built-in top loader about a month ago and found out when I got it home that tub lid was missing. I've emailed a couple of potential parts dealers but I have had no luck yet. Does anyone have suggestions as to where I could look next? Even better, does anyone know where I might be able to find the entire cabinet for one of these pull-out models? The one that came with mine is a wee bit rough... Have a look at the photo and let me know if you have any suggestions. CLICK HERE TO GO TO turquoisedude's LINK on eBay

Scans will done
For sure I will scan and post those instruction manuals! I was amazed to learn that GE made a 30-inch pull-out (the SU80 or Empress) undercounter dishwasher. How cool would that be to have?? Apparently the Mobile-Maid that I just won in Upstate NY also has the original manual with it, so you can be sure that I will get that one digitized and posted too. | ||

Oh yeah, it was the SU-80 or, "The Empress". Yours, the SU60, was "The Princess". Here's a pic of the Empress, not much different, except in the racking, which, when I first got a picture of it was disappointing in that I thought the bottom rack would be much bigger and that there would be two spray impellers side by side or some other arrangement. The Empress is only a 6" wider tub with room at the bottom for some big pieces and a huge upper rack with two silverware baskets. It also had a neat electrical chain-driven automatic door opener:

Those pictures you have are amazing - are they the actual technical drawings from GE?? I also thought they might have had two impellers to better cover that larger upper rack. In the book, they claim that you could wash 84 glasses in the upper rack! That chain-drive tub mechanism sounds cool, but I'll bet it's not fun to fix!! You seem to know quite a lot about the GE top-loaders; how long did GE keep making the built-in pull-out models? I had always assumed that built-in top loaders faded out in the late 1950's. Is it possible that the pull-outs survived until at least the early 1960's? The SU60S1 I have was supposed to have been purchased in 1959, but with a model number of SU60, I kinda wondered if it was the 1960 model... | ||
