Kundenrezensionen:

Die Kamera macht einen sehr stabilen Eindruck. Sie liegt durch den Einsatz herkömmlicher Batterien (2xAA) und dem damit verbundenen höheren Gewicht auch richtig gut in der Hand. Auffällig ist, das das Display nicht plan zur Oberfläche verläuft, sondern leicht nach innen ...

@pokadot62

Hi. Thanks for posting your comment. I would be interested in buying your Electric Sink, depending on where it is located. Could you please communicate to me via my email: mikehaller@aol.com THANKS.

There's something mesmerizing about it... I just can't... put a finger on it.... ... .. .

[force311999]

they should make a mini modern one like this that can set in a standard sink

and plug in to the faucet

[force311999]

cant believe it had the vacuum breaker on the water supply back then?

was it the law back then?????

[Organgrinder1010]

Is the gizmo at 3:09 a vacuum break?

[force311999]

@Organgrinder1010 yes just like a washing mach. they must fill 1 inch above the spill height of the tub to protect the water from back flow

[tanman1346]

I like commercial dishwashers better.

one warsh

[Bricstar7]

what a good laugh. I might use this as a audio-over for the next work im thinking about. nice one dude

[mrmjb1960]

Too bad the Water didn't hit all the dishes..still,not bad for a Near Century-old Dishwasher,is it?

[SpazChat]

Why don't they make these anymore, or do they? Not all of us have a family of 3 or 5 and need a humongous dishwasher

[mikey2572]

@SpazChat You can get a countertop or a small built in "apartment size" dishwasher. I had a countertop when I lived in a studio apartment and my great grandmother had a small built in dishwasher since she just lived by herself. They both worked great!

[StrongEnough78]

So how does an impeller style dishwasher work? Is the water shot up from the bottom of the impeller, spinning it to direct the water around the washer? Or is the bottom of it filled with water to where the impeller is being spun by the motor with enough force to throw the water around?

[HVACarchives]

Maybe new dishwashers take forever due to their harshness on dishes!

[ChrisVaughn85]

FUCKING COOL!

[BFMVpwnage5168]

oh gawd this thing looks angry lol

[miredian]

A video of the wash arm would be interesting. The random action of water makes me think it's not a typical wash arm rotating.

[greatlighting]

The lid id supposed to open on its own. That's for the evap dry.

[douro20]

He's saying that he's having problems with getting the thing to open on its own.

[piokrza89]

very interesting dishwasher

[BMWFAN01]

._. it's no wonder they say some things, are just better to remain the way they are, without needing to improve anything. there fore, i really would love to have that dishwasher, here in tTokyo. :]

[marvtu]

wish I was born earlier, I only grew up with frontloading machines from the 70's. too bad, this is so much nicer.

[peeweecee]

What's really amazing is that this unit has a feature to let the water run for 30 seconds until it's hot. That's a feature new machines should have, maybe current manufacturers can learn from this machine that's 61 years old. All the new machines tell you to run the kitchen faucet until the water's hot... this machine does it for you.

[dishwashercrazy]

peeweecee, Yes, this 1948 diswasher did allow water to flow to ensure that the water was hot prior to beginning the Wash cycle. I have a 1960 KitchenAid KD-12 that does the same thing. However, by the early 1950's, G.E. created a Pre-Rinse which served the obvious two purposes of a pre-rinse, as well as ensuring the hottest water was available for the Wash to begin.

Thanks for your comments. Mike.

[peeweecee]

Okay, now I understand prerinse better. Thanks. I still think technology is going backwards though, our new Maytag dishwasher takes 2 1/2 hours on shortest cycle, our old Frigidaire got everthing spotless in an hour. Enough said.

[dishwashercrazy]

Yes, the new machines today have such long cycle times. The old machines really had fast cycle times. I'm starting to restore my 1937 G.E. Electric Sink now. These pre-WWII dishwasher, and even some post WWII dishwashers were manually operated: Turn the motor and water on, wait for about 1 gallon of water to enter the tub, turn the machine off, add detergent, turn machine back on, let run for 5 minutes, open the drain valve, close the drian valve, repeat the process for two rinses. Cool!

[BlogShag]

@peeweecee I agree, Our 2005 Whirlpool is the worst dishwasher we've ever owned. It takes over and hour to do the dishes and the dishes come out all filmy, it has only two final rinses. Our old 1986 GE dishwasher got everything spotless in 35 minutes

[shmuli9]

@peeweecee Indeed! I always run the hot water in the sink till it's hot, but if you think about it, even though that would make the sitation better, it STILL measn there is a LOT of cool/cold water in between the hot water pipe and the inlet to the dishwasher...

[SpazChat]

@peeweecee , new machines don't really need that feature cause they have units in the machines that heat the water. Also the cycle times are so damn long, the water has plenty of time to heat up

[peeweecee]

Holy crap is that cool! I can't believe it still works! Where did you ever find it? Funny how a machine from 1948 cleans in 8 minutes yet my new Maytag takes FOREVER to run even on short cycle. Maybe I should look for a model like this.  What a great idea to have it as part of the sink too.

[dishwashercrazy]

peeweecee, This 1948 G.E. Electric Sink came from a fellow collector in the Detroit area, who had obtained it from another collector. I understand that this machine was the first dishwasher ever installed in the town of Helena, Montana!

[mobilemaid]

This is absolutely fantastic! I have always marveled at the old impeller dishwashers! We had a GE Mobile Maid growing up with a funky bow-tie impleller, but it washed quite well.

Great Job!!!

[dishwashercrazy]

johnny2970:  Probably the closest modern item to the Electric Sinks sinks is the KithenAid Briva In-Sink Dishwasher.

[djphillips1985]

That Briva is nice, but pretty stinkin' pricy!

[johnny2970]

cool dishwasher!

it would be cool if they made then today with soapdispenser and different programs

[Trance88]

Wow! That's pretty cool! Looks like it will get dishes super clean!

[dishwashercrazy]

Trance88, Actually, I have only tested it with dirty dishes once. After it is more permanantly installed, them I will have a better idea. There isn't alot of splash action in the center on top, and Cascade soap colleced on top of tall glasses and didn't get rinsed off. This dissappointed me.
