No fancy camera work with this one unfortunately. Here is an unedited full cycle of the 1986 Hotpoint Potwasher Dishwasher. Background noise is kept to a minimum.
Hotpoint was made by General Electric, which quit making appliances and electronics with both that round GE logo and General Electric around 1994. Hotpoint is no longer in business. 1993 was the last year for leading brands like Whirlpool, General Electric, Maytag, Hotpoint, Kenmore, Frigidaire, Kitchen-Aid Superba to make kitchen appliances like refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, microwaves, toasters, blenders, washing machines, dryers with retro brown, grey, silver control panels, wooden brown and silver coated trim above controls on very top.
We had a newer version of this with the wood panel trim around the control panel, still gives me nightmares. I’m not sure why but I’ve had hundreds of nightmares about it overflowing or having standing water, or it making horrendous and awful sounds. Reason being probably because when we got rid of it the machine had started to make electrical noises while it was filling and pressurizing and it would vibrate like hell, it wasn’t in very good condition anymore but it did a hell of a good job cleaning
The machine is not getting enough water. This is evident by the cavitation of the pump and the lack of the sound of the spray in the wash chamber. There should be a very distinct sound of water from the wash tower hitting the door.
I love the 16:00 to 45:00 part! I am always drifting off to sleep here! So relaxing! This was probably the main wash cycle here.
This is the same machine my parents have!!! I’m going to clean the filter tomorrow for the first time ever. Can you imagine?!?
Fantastic dishwasher!
This sound reminds me of the 1993 GE Potscrubber dishwasher that my grandparents used to have. A great consistent sound for sleeping, in my opinion.
Ge made hot point too
I agree. It brings back so many memories of my Kenmore built by GE.
@@Bob-ml1mv And some Kenmore.

I love that sound of the motor. I hope you get it fully functional where it sprays at maximum pressure and the pump spins at 3000 rpm. Happy New Year!
My Grandma had a GE dishwasher I think it's from the late 80's but I'm not sure exactly.

I had a Kenmore version of this dishwasher and it too would vibrate at times when the dishwasher would try to pressurize.

That was exactly what I was thinking. I listen by ear.
I agree 100%.
I have this trying to find the filter if it needs to be cleaned
