What is the consensus here on the Super Surge wash action DWs replacing the Spin tube ? Me thinks they were out from 1964-1979. Any scans of literature? Thanks |

I don't think the Super Surge came out untill the late 60's early 70's.around the same time as the Jet- action 1-18's.I saw my first Jet Action 1-18 at a nationwide membership only store called G.E.M. in December of 1969. It was a Gold Crown model with a window lid in Poppy Red and the store also had a gas Gibson double oven range in Poppy Red.Gibson was the only competitor that was available in Poppy.I was pinching my cheek thinking I was dreaming after seeing the huge perforated tub and an entirely different design in the FRIGIDAIRE products.I just had to see it work!Back then,FRIGIDAIRE had a cassett video player that would show the different appliances in action.I only wish I could find this video player with all the cassetts!

Chuck, nope, they were both a product of GM design. Think about it, if they had been a D&M product, then the SuperSurge dishwashers would have looked just like every other D&M clone out there, through the 1960s to late 1970s, under the Kenmore, Gaffers & Sattler, Magic Chef, and other similar ilk machines.
