It sounds like something from the D&M line from the mid-60s. Kenmore is the first brand that comes to my feeble mind, but D&M made machines under many names back then (Admiral, Caloric, Chambers, Kelvinator etc, etc)

Thanks,but the buttons are lower,on the bottom edge of the panel,the dial is a lot smaller,and the latch,at the top,swings from left to right,like a GE,though I know it's not. |

Sound like circular saws running mixed with the sound of a chainsaw! |

When I was a kid we lived a short time in Jackson Michigan. I remember I did some babysitting in those days. The lady next door had a LK Roto Rack with all the lights (the ones that looked like piano keys) and buttons and then another neighbor I babysat for had this exact dishwasher. I remember the middle wash arm. I used to jump on those babysitting jobs so I could play with the dishwashers after the kids went to bed. Another neighbor had a Frigidaire spin tube and what I remember was the door closed by a spring. It didn't have a latch.
We had a boring old KD12 which back then wasn't nearly as much fun as the LK and the Hotpoint because it didn't have any lights!! |
