Checkrate/Likes COOL! Hey~ what does the "reel" do to the right of the motor? Is there a solenoid drain valve or does the motor reverse to pump out?

Checkrate/Likes The reel next to the motor is the cord-winder reel. I would be this is GE's first spray arm/pop-up tower design, the holes in the spray arm are very large if I remember correctly. I think it's a reversing motor as well.

Checkrate/Likes Yeah, it has a flapper in the pump for the drain and it holds about a quart of dirty water to carry in to the next part of the cycle. This was really early because of the blue Plastisol and the top rack is the carryover from the bow tie impeller machines. It was not so hard to load those through the opening in the top rack because the middle of the lower rack was open for the impeller, but this was a cheapie model without the upper rack where half lifted with the lid. It is very difficult to load things through that center opening past those pins in the bottom rack and you have to be very careful to load things from the outside in toward the center, because if you put a plate in the center first, you either have to remove it to put something closer to the outside of the lower rack or you have to lift up the top rack to do it. Add to this, very low water pressure and no filtration and you have an excellent machine for someone who washes dishes before loading them in the dishwasher. There was a model cheaper than this one, but this is bad enough for one morning.

Checkrate/Likes *HmmmM...* I emailed the guy - Harrisburg is only about a 90min drive- hopefully he doesn't want a mint for it - this is my grandparents first dishwasher that i used to play with - I'd love to have it! Matt

Checkrate/Likes Hi Matt, I have that same dishwasher, and its a very good model. Its pretty lightweight, so I often use it when Im doing an estate sale in a dirty house that has no dishwasher and there are a lot of dishes and glassware to clean up. It rolls easily and I can move it in and out by myself. It does a great job. It has a reversing motor and is kind of noisy, but its cool to hear the swirling water hit the sides of the dishwasher as the arm swirls around. It has a design problem that GE never really did seem to correct: if you raise the lid too quickly after its been washing and dont pause and let the water run off the lid, the water on the lid will run down the back of the machine and on to the floor. Not a lot mind you, but enough to be annoying!
