Interesting! I haven't seen that many of this era around. I am going to hazard a guess that it has the 'spray tower' wash system. $50 doesn't seem too, too unreasonable.... CLICK HERE TO GO TO turquoisedude's LINK on Rochester Craigslist |

From the late 1960s or early 1970s, perhaps? |

Funny Chris, I was thinking how clean and modern the design looked... |

That dial had 4 cycles on it--normal, light, rinse&dry, and plate warmer. That "one" pushbutton was actually a rocker switch. If you think this was boring, all Frigidaire Spin-Tube models ONLY had a dial and that was it. The last series of Frigidaire (GM-Prduced) dishwashers were the only ones with any true "pizzaz" with regards to control panels and buttons.

Meaning a lot of lights, dials, push-buttons? I go more for the heavy computer-controlled models with much ado... ;-) |

I had a friend in high school - they had this model in their kitchen. I always thought the whirly-gig wash arm was ingenious. Looking at the picture though, I am suprised they designed a machine with the wash arm UNDER the heating element. Has there ever been another design like this?
If I ever find one of these units I am going to snag it for my collection. |
