They showed several methods of cooking, from firepits to induction, including details on cooking utensils. One display had a 50's GE 40" range, a 60's Hotpoint range, also 40" and a 2019 Frigidaire induction range. Around the corner, I found this:

I laughed out loud, when I saw their version of a roll-out GE Dishwasher!

What a fun unexpected find. The photographed dishwasher is perfect, at least they made that effort. A painted-to-match more modern machine would have been more disappointing.
Now we'll need more pics of your collection... I see turquoise and 1-18 peeking around the edges of that beautiful dishwasher. |

my 1/18. Also found that behind an appliance store, wish I was able to grab the matching dryer. Looked like someone just wanted "modern". Phil was able to find me a nicer lens for the light and I added the windowed lid sent to me by GregM.

my '67 washer and dryer. I've had this washer for 32 years. Still use it occasionally. The dryer was from PhilR, and I changed the control panel to match the washer. It's not a "no-vent" model. I need to re-paint the dryer now that I've found a better Rustoleum spray match .

Had a bunch of salvaged dishwasher control panels that I displayed. Also, the Viking dishwasher from Paul that I put into an international witness program and rebadged it as a Westinghouse (its Canadian-Westinghouse built).

The KitchenAid dishwasher was found in a garage at a sale. They said it didn't work and would be glad if I got it out of their way! Replaced the broken wire in the lid and it's run ever since we got it in 1989. Noisy as the GE! But great as a second unit for large parties.

Frigidaire Gallery pair. They have been trouble-free with the exception of the dryer control. 7 years old next week.

my first piece of literature was from 1961, when I went washer shopping with my grandparents. Thanks to the internet, I've been able to expand it

Same goes for me, reading the newspaper ads and finding Sears, Ward's and Penny's to be quite different from stores selling major brands and even the electronics and entertainment departments to be just as important and entertaining as the appliances, in visiting and looking at, in those red-carpeted rooms, especially in the way of television and stereo/audio equipment being where I'd made my first major purchase...
