Great find, Richard! While there is a general consensus that the 18 is more mighty than the 20, both machines are wonderful in my book and are the pinnacle of Hobart/KA domestic dishwashers before the Whirlpool buyout.
I recently swapped out a tired KDS-17A for a KDS-20 and I keep asking myself why, why did I not swap the two out sooner! Ben |

Our house came with a BOL Magic Chef that I replaced with a KA Superba KUDS-23. So much nicer to have a vintage KA in the kitchen.

My mother scoured the last tiny reminants out of the pan that no DW could ever remove before I could get an after picture of the pan I mentioned.
All is not lost for you dishwasher aficionados, I spent 25 minutes yesterday trying to cram as many items in as possible. The top rack is latched in the top position so I could get the pan and copper strainer in. That made upper rack loading a puzzle. |
