I had one in the Galley on the 100' Broward back in 1988. I would rotate it before starting and it was then I noticed how it would reach the corners of the machine on certain rotations. The wash arm support did have a gear assembly on it and as it rotated it would move around orbitally. Not like a fixed wash arm like a KA or most models for example.
Cleaned Great. Never had a issue with that model. It ran somedays 6-7 times a day. I was onboard for 7 months and never a repair. And as far as reaching the corners of the upper rack... Before I joined AW, I used to "Bob Load" before I knew there was such a thing and the results were great. |

I had a GSD1200 from April 1987 until May 2007. It was a wonderful dishwasher. And I created the concept and term BobLoad while owning that dishwasher. It was an amaaing performer. I still use that machine's performance as the standard-bearer for performance to this day. (I've never gotten to use a power clean but once or twice and most everything was pretty well rinsed off so I cannot do an equal comparison). Extremely rarely did I ever have anything come out that wasn't totally clean. I used Light Soil 85% of the time (the equivalent of every other manufacturer's Normal Wash cycle at the time) and even oatmeal that had sat in the bowls for 6 or 7 days, came out clean. In all the years I owned that mahcine, I probably used Rinse & Hold less than 10 times.
