When Chip worked for the guy who didn't pay him very much for his time, Chip overheard the guy call the dump and ask how much it was to "dump" a dishwasher. The guy found out it was going to cost $15 and kinda freaked.
So, Chip casually asked if the dishwasher worked and it led into asking me if we would like to have it. Oh, let me think. Do I want a dishwasher??? Duh! Yeah!
It has been out in the garage since we got it. I put some water in the bottom to rehydrate the seals since it had been sitting for a while. Today Cool brought it in and cleaned it up. I then ran a cycle with bleach water and a rinse cycle to get any left over bleach there might be.
THEN came the fun part. I actually put dirty dishes in it and ran a rinse and hold. Woo-hoo! I almost can't wait for supper dishes!
OK, it isn't pretty to look at and I really don't have any room in my kitchen for a dishwasher. I have to roll it here and there to get it out of my way. But it is a dream come true. A true blue, albeit ugly, dishwasher. It honestly brings tears to me eyes.
I am THAT happy! Superficial today but happy!

You know that I am completely green with envy...but my turn is coming!!
Didn't think I needed one till I got it and now I don't know what I would do without it!
I have a portable that's white and I wouldn't live without it! Congrats!
I need to call around and find someone to build it in, depending on price. Right now it sits just like yours does and has no where to call home. The dog crate took its home.
p.s. Wal-mart has a gel detergent that is cheap and works better than the expensive brands.
Congrats on the dishwasher lol. After we went through 3 of them we gave up....almost! We now have 6! They are ages 19,16,13,11,9 and 8 ! Maybe one day I will have a dishwasher again,until the grandkids start coming lol.
