Here is the Patrician, Greg and I rescued last summer, new pump impeller, pump cover, wash arm. Cleaned resealed the dispenser doors. Polished up the front , installed Greg's new silverware basket. Have done three loads already, loving the extra space!! Poor 14 is in storage-for how long is anybody's guess, I'm lovin this machine day by day.

Poor 14 is in storage I can't imagine that situation changing any time soon now that you have the superior washing ability and ease of loading afforded by a KDP-20.
OK, in recent weeks we've seen the re-deployment of a super clean KDI-20, now a refurbished KDP-20, so it looks like we need someone to do likewise with a KDS-20 and show it off here. | ||

Yes I am 6'5 and
I wasn't gonna be stooping 3 times a day for dishes! Especially after 20 years in the restaurant business where Hobarts are all counter height!!
I had them mounted up 10 years ago when I re-did the kitchen. And it was novel then and the contractors were running around scratching their heads trying to come up with a way on how to even do this!! I let them stew a bit ( more than a bit really, enjoyed it too!!) then said "Order to oven mount cabinets , cut them down 8 inches and voila! Up mounted dishwashers! Nowadays its common in all the La Ti Dah kitchens. Techno- that was only lunch and breakfast, just filled that machine and my 25 after cooking a pot of stock, and kneading and baking dog biscuits. They are both full now and humming. I love the little tight SNAP sound the drain valve makes when opening. | ||

You won't find a raised dishwasher in GE's Dream Kitchen concepts which was supposed to showcase innovative appliance placement. But I do remember a wall mounted dishwasher, I'm not familiar with vintage dishwashers, either Hotpoint, James, Hobart?It was a lot higher than necessary, yours seems to be just high enough to make a difference without interfering with upper cabinets. What kind of sound blanket does this dishwasher use?

GE Kitchen . . . That kitchen is surely beautiful but always makes me laugh with the combo washer-dryer mounted under the oven. I suspect after awhile the owner would be tempted to cut a door through the back wall to service the washer-dryer! | ||

The Patircian dishwasher is completely wrapped
in 1 inch of fiberglass. There is no sound deadening sprayed on the tank, I think that might have been for Superba models. My 2 - 25 Superbas have a thick rubber coating and then 1 inch of fiberglass and they are silent.
Yes the bottom panels on both cabinets just snap into place just in case there was a leak. So far so good. | ||
