It looks like it may be one of the Filter-Flo impeller models! I've half a mind to ask them if they would consider selling the dishwasher separately...

I knew I had seen an ad for this dishwasher before! I swear it was in an old Life Magazine that we had when I was a brat. A power shower on the top lid would make this the ultimate impeller-wash dishwasher... Three days to go on the auction! I have put in an offer for just the dishwasher if the lot do not get sold; that would of course be subject to the seller's approval, though. I am keeping my fingers crossed nonetheless!! | ||

Auction's over - no one bid so...
I got an email from the auction house saying the owner is willing to sell me this dishwasher! Before I start worrying about where hubby will put my remains I wanted to at least get a shipping estimate on this one. I've emailed Jim Hill who has been recommended by a few members and since this item is in Michigan, he may be able to help me out. I have also let the auction house know that I want to see what kind of condition the dishwasher is in AFTER it is removed. I don't want to wind up with a a machine like my poor, sad 59 GE Princess with a cut frame and no tub lid!! If I can't complete this deal, if anyone else is seriously interested, let me know and I will send you the auction house contact person's email. And SSSSH ! I'm not telling hubby anything about this one yet... | ||

Hello.
If you don't want this for any reason, please let me know. I didn't bid on the lot because you saw it first, but I was sorely tempted. Contact me at kjayvazian@comcast.net, but I still think that turquoise beauty belongs in that spectacular new kitchen of yours. If you do get it, I want Norma Desmond style closeups from every angle.

Still working on it!
The people who had comissioned the auction house to sell the appliances had initially agreed to sell off just the dishwasher if there had been no bids on the lot; the person I have been in contact with from the auction house had a buyer lined up for just the refrigerator also. On Friday, I got an email from the auction person saying the owners were now resisting the idea of breaking up the set! AAAARGH! The auction company guy is still working on them - hey it's in his best interest, too! Sooooo, we shall have to wait and see... If it winds up dragging, I might be tempted to head down there in person and throw a hissy in front of the owners, if it would help!! I really want to get my mitts on this one!!! | ||

td I have noticed that some of these units have different rack support configureation. It's hard to believe that the "strip" styles would be substantial enough to support the racks empty, let alone filled with dishes! | ||

The Princess half-moon dial
Jim, here are a couple of pictures of the Princess. She's in bad shape - the cabinet frame is good and truly messed up (cut and the tub lid is gone). I waver between finding a welder who can firm up the cabinet frame and build me some kind of a lid and parting the machine out... If I get the dishwasher that I found in Michigan, the latter may be the more likely outcome!

Why do you suppose the lid was removed from the frame? Did the people you got it from have any explanation? | ||

This will kill you - I didn't even realize the machine needed a lid until I got it home! I called them back to ask if they had anything resembling the lid lying around, but alas no. The installer who put in the new F&P drawer dishwasher removed this GE... As you can imagine, I have let the auctioneer handling this sale know that I would like pictures of this dishwasher AFTER removal before I make expensive shipping arrangements! | ||

One can never quite understand the thinking (or lack thereof) behind some appliance removals... IMO, the installer should have been able to slide the old unit out, but I fear that perhaps some other change (like adding ceramic tile to the original floor and 'burying' the dishwasher front may have forced the installer to use extreme measures... Still waiting for word about the one in Michigan, believe it or not! And still keeping my fingers crossed!! | ||

The Princess half-moon dial
There it is! We had this same dishwasher in our house when I was a kid. Same color too! It was in so many of the homes in my neighborhood. I have always wondered what year they were made.... Would love to see some close up's of the booklets on top of the cabinet. Now,can you imagine a 7 year old boy wanting to get the dishes "really" clean and pouring a half of box of cascade,half a can of ajax,unknown amount of joy and anything else he could find under the kitchen sink into the bottom? Then wondering why Mother was running for towels... I remember her just giving up and saying just let it run as the suds went,cabinet high down the galley kitchen as my little brother was gearing up for a game of slip and slide.... She was so cool about it! | ||
