Heavens! If that short smock had sleeves, her raised arms would have resulted in showing more than they had planned in a dishwasher ad. |

Very interesting to note you only have super wash, short wash or gentle wash to choose from, no "regular or normal" wash!
And WOW... a full width fluorescent console light??? Dang I gotta find me one of those!!!
Kevin

Here's the 80, identical in styling & size to the machine in Dave's pic. Big Al, the gracious donor of this exquisite gift told me is was a 66. Always got a kick out of the regular cycle being called Super Wash, just like the washing machine. Someone there, at Whirlpool, must have loved the term and did want not to leave the dishwashers out.
Sweet scans, Dave. Will enjoy with lunch. |

These machines are so pretty and so powerful. Just finished a load. Never truly appreciated dishwashers till I Al gave me this one. It takes the broiler pan without a blink. Notice how high up in the tub it goes. No going back now. You're lucky to have the lighted model; Al has one, too. Must be so cool at night in a dark kitchen. |

SVP80WO compute? That's as best as I can see.
HI John. No other DW will accept the broiler pan with such ease, if at all, without tipping, and arm-blocking; this thing is amazing. When it dies, so will I. LOL You never answered me re: a bed in the museum to explore till the wee hours, sleep, then wake to more exploration. I can fly again and travel after 4 years of being grounded. |

Bay Jess ~ Dave has 2, Al & I each have one. The fact that they were made for only three years, thus rare, makes me feel lucky. I wonder if Diswashercrazy Mike has any or..........
JOHN, are there any in the museum?
The hope for you Ken is that since they were portables, there is always the good chance that they were pushed aside while alive and well for a built-in after a kitchen remodel or a move to a new home. Post #6 has a nice cutaway view & short discussion of the double wall.
Model # 05077F943 That number 9 is so faint, even with a magnifier. It could be a 5. Not sure. Any trick to bringing it out. Lead pencil?
Found another way; it is a 9 for sure. Thank You, John. If I have a big party for Imperial 80, you'll be the guest of honor.
Interesting to note: Not only did WP use the Super Wash term for the DW's but the TOL 100 model in Dave's scan is called a Mark 1, shades of the Mark XII washer. |

I'm not exactly sure what we are talking about with only made for three years. We have a WP top-loading portable from the early 60s with the round black Bakelite wash arm and the 2/3 width sliding top rack in the collection. |

Know some of the reasons why top loading portable dishwashers were discontinued, but still think they make sense for some situations.
For instance because the thing opens upwards instead of out top loaders could be far more useful in certain tight situations. Main problem one sees is having to design such things to either have a powerful enough spray from the bottom and or some sort of arm under the upper portion to get things clean. Spraying water down from the lid via whatever methods is fine and well to keep yibbles off the tops of things, but what about the insides of glassware, cups and so forth? |

I think you had slightly fewer top-load manufacturers than front-load: TL included KitchenAid, GE, D&M, Whirlpool, Frigidaire and Westinghouse. They generally used their usual systems--KA used their single-level wash throughout the life of their TL manufacturing; GE moved from impeller to wash arm with tower, D&M moved from impeller to washarm and used the roto-rack over the fixed douchenozzle, Whirlpool had dual wash arms; IDK about late Frigidaire TL and late Westinghouse TL (don't think there was a spraytube Frigidaire TL; there clearly was an impeller TL Westinghouse (from their built-in line) but IDK when they moved to an arm design and whether they had a second level wash).

I found this picture on the web. It looks like a store demo model, with a front window. Looks pretty cool to me.

Was it ever mass produced, or was it only a store demo ? |

Hi Launderess - well, if so, it's very obscure. The mark, when I blow it up, is a single quote to replace the number 19 that usually precedes a 20th century understood year.
so '69 is what I am getting... but if you see a dollar sign...not going to say otherwise. Hmm...anyways, when would this ad be printed, anyone? |
