They had a permenent feed tube that went straight up into a round thing with sray nozzles in the round thing. This lost a considerable amount of space in the lower rack. Right ??? Or am I thinking earlier ?? What year did Fridgidaire had the lower spray arm with the 2 smaller lower spray arms on the lower spray arm ? Wow that's almost confusing !!!

So, did WCI do the same bidding to the dishwashers that they did to the washer/dryer line? Keep the panels but change the guts?

This was a WCI Frigidaire that I snapped a photo of behind Menards this past summer.

Yes the interiors of everything changed. Everything was made to look the same from the outside.
How sad :(
Also what is that switch for at the left side of the machine?

Frigidaire!

I also never realized that the GM model had the tilted upper rack design. I was always used to the more basic models that my Aunt and a friend had. They were large capacity machines. And cleaned decently for the time. In those days KitchenAid GE and sears d&m were the biggest sellers of dishwashers as I remember. Frigidaire was big in air conditioners refrigators and of course washing machines.
