I recently purchased a house that has this frigidaire sink/ dishwasher combo in it. I have been doing some research on it but can't seem to find anything like it. I attached some pictures. The drain in the sink says frigidaire and there is a frigidaire waste disosposal attached under the sink. It is an all metal cabinet with 4 doors. It has been painted green. Thanks for the help.

Please post some more pics, especially the interior and the mechanical cabinet.

This one looks like it could be fun,

Looks like a Kaiser dishwasher - probably coincidence that there is a Frigidaire disposer in the sink, a later replacement or addition. Lou just posted a thread on his Kaiser dishwasher, cool machine!!

I have NEVER seen a dish machine like that. And integrated into a sink, has got to be a rarity.

Kaiser

It is almost certainly a Kaiser from the appearence and as others have noted the Fridgidaire sink waste could be a later addition/replacement.

Its not clear in your photo but are there three levers on the front of or inside of the cupboard?

The link below is to Lou's great thread which will give you a lot of information about it.

Wow, I believe, with much certainty, that this is indeed a Kaiser Dishwasher. I did not even know these were built.

We can see the similarity between mine and the Electric Sink version.

This would be an excellent addition to my growing Electric Sink collection, should you decide to remove it and sell.

This is why I thought it was a frigidaire

Well, this confirms it for sure. This is a Kaiser Dishwasher/Sink.

On the knob, the O stands for Off, the R stands for Rinse, and the W stands for Wash. This dishwasher runs totally on water pressure.

This photo shows what the inside should look like on this dishwasher.

Unfortunately, the drain plug is gone, all seven of the spray nozzels in the bottom are gone. The dish rack is gone.
