I received the following email from a very nice lady named Joan:

Home Wanted for KDS-17

For sale: KDS-17 that’s been in my home for 39 years. Cosmetically darn near perfect. No rust, just tips of some tines on lower rack have worn a bit. Mechanically imperfect because my best guess is the motor went out a week ago, filling my kitchen with smoke when I opened the door (and then ran like a scared rabbit to the circuit-breaker box).

The photos were taken before I removed the water, which makes the floor of the machine look funky-colored, which it isn’t. I’ve since removed the smoke stains visible where the hot water enters. The small-items basket is not shown, but I have it.

I’ve bought a replacement, which will be installed on Mar. 16. If the KDS-17 can’t be picked up by Mar. 15, my only recourse is to have it hauled away by the installer because given all the snow in Minneapolis this year, the only place I could put it is under a tarp on the sidewalk by the front door, which will not make my mailman happy.

Email siegeljoan@comcast.net. Any offer will be considered. Thanks for looking!

It seems like End of the Winter is KitchenAid season.

Last year this time they started popping up everywhere.

Just like in May, It seems like Maytag Month

Nice Machine. I hope someone gets this. Eddie

Update re Minneapolis KDS-17

This is Robert’s very nice lady with news: I’ve located someone who will move my very nice KDS-17 to a secure warehouse location in the event a collector would like the machine but can’t meet the 3/15 pickup deadline. This is being done as a favor to me, and a buyer will not have a labor or storage charge.

A palletized shipment within the USA may even be possible—the buyer would have to pay the freight, of course. If you live in the USA and are interested, email me at siegeljoan@comcast.net.

Pic shows smoke stain mentioned in original post.

if i still lived in minneapolis i would grab that in a flash!

it looks like it is in excellent condition!

jim the trucker may be in minnesota soon, he's gonna be on the east coast in april he just told me this week. he does get around and i have used his service 5 or 6 times now, i forget.

u crate it also did a great job for me last year when i had them pick up the kdss-17a in boston. very reasonable price and it was shipped without a hitch!

hopefully someone who wants a great old kitchenaid will grab this one! hey mike (dishwashercrazy), do you have a kds-17a?
