With signal lamps.  Nothing about Hobart on the model tag.

Hobart Design

But built after Emerson acquired the brand. You can tell it's the Hobart design by the smaller wash arm hubs (Whirlpool's design was larger due to it being based on the original Power Clean module).

The interior looks very good. Hopefully it will be bought (i'd love it, but i'm too full as it is!)

That's kind of what I was thinking.

 

I had a KDI-21 for many years but it didn't have a RAT or indicator lamps.  This one looks more like a Patrician, but it's clearly marked as an Imperial.  Were there two types of Imperials being made at the same time?

I believe this was the last iteration of a designated "Imperial" model. It was an upgrade from the previous model 21, but was not produced as such when the 22 series came out. It was a sales strategy to offer an all push button model at a price point below the Superba.

Steve T. may know this history better.
