It's great to see one in action again!
In 1953 our new neighborhood just N of Baltimore had several homes that had those Youngstown Electric Sink units installed, including our next door neighbor, and my best friend Scott's house across the street! I spent many an hour watching that Jet Tower do it's thing! They were so primitive... no detergent dispenser, no drying cycle or cycles of any kind, and with such a limited capacity, it was a very good thing that the wash took only 9 3/4 minutes! Still, I was so jealous, because at home we still washed by hand until a KDS-15 finally arrived in 1965!

Oh, my. I'd sell a body part for those YK cabinets. I have the electric sink in the garage awaiting attention. I should be out there instead of in here, huh? *LOL* | ||

Tower dishwashing is the only way to go for drama and hand s Jon, was the hand scrubbing done before or after the dishes were washed in the Youngstown? | ||

One Saw "Her Indoor's"
Loading that DW by merely scrapping the dishes and was thinking "oh yes, that's really going to work". *LOL*
Don't know if automatic dishwashing powders were out at the time, otherwise it was powdered soap to do the work and all the problems that presented. First without a supply of *HOT* (>140F) and soft water it probably was going to be a mess of mineral deposits and food gunk in there. Secondly one cannot imagine glassware coming out "sparkling" from such a brew. | ||

Marketing 101 Hasn't Changed In Over 50 Fears! *LOL*
Film is all about selling the benefits of the unit to Madame rather than just getting her to purchase a dishwasher. Since His Nibbs would have to fork over any salesman had two potential customers, and the guy who held the wallet was often then as how the hardest sale.
A few other points: That is quite allot of food the lady is scrapping down that disposer, especially for the 1950's. There might have been a post-war boom going on but many still wouldn't throw that much food basically into the garbage. Without a near boiling hot rinse and perhaps rinse agent those dishes may have been washed in 9.5 minutes but they weren't likely to be dry. One supposes you had to put things onto a towel, drying rack or hand dry them if you wanted to do another load quickly. | ||
