We just bought a 1960 built rambler in Seattle and need to let go of the vintage appliances in order to remodel our kitchen. We don't have the heart to take them to the dump, especially because they are both working (mostly) and are just so cool.

The Waste King Dishwasher seems to work but doesn't drain properly. I'm pretty sure someone handy could fix it. The link to the Craigslist posting is below. We'll entertain offers and would love to see it go to a loving home.

The Thermador wall over is white with chrome trim and works like a charm. If we had the proper space and layout for it we would keep it. Here is the Craiglist posting:

Let me know if you're interested or have any tips for what we could do with them. Thanks!

The draining is controlled by a valve or solenoid which may not be opening for some reason.  Similar concept to a KitchenAid.  Ours got stuck because of calcium from the hard water.  That's when my dad installed a water softener.  Nice looking dishwasher.

Would appreciate some photos of dishwasher interior and the wall oven.

I will take more shots and post them ASAP. In the meantime, did you see both of the Craigslist postings?
