I would really prefer to be living in that time, the cadence, less stress.

I can vouch the toaster segment is entirely wrong. The toasters he’s talking about are the earliest models (much earlier than the 1950s), one of which in particular is the Edison D-12 that was the equivalent of a hot wire fence you rest bread near to toast it. My friend collects them and has hundreds so I finally get to put my countless hours of being regaled with toaster tidbits at LENGTH to good use.

A radio built-in to a refrigerator/freezer would've kept the electronics of the radio cool. Which would've probably helped longevity and maybe other factors with regard to the radio.

Personally I would love to see one of those "auto bars" installed and see just how it worked.

- So how long did it take for the dishwasher to operate? - I would not object to any of this stuff, except for some safety matters -

[@robertknight4672]

There are companies that still make countertop dishwashers when some people have said those do just as good of a job as a full size dishwasher.

The wash cycle took approximately forty-five minutes to complete, but then there was the dry cycle provided by an heating element in the bottom of the washer. The drying took approximately another thirty minutes. I liked the fact you could lean over the dishwasher since it was waist height. When it was cold outside it was a great place to warm up. The washer was indeed portable. It has four caster wheels that allowed it to be easily moved across linoleum floors, but forget about moving it across a carpet. I was too heavy. The water connection was provided by a attachment that retracted into the washer. When extended the attachment coupled with a nipple you had to fasten to the the kitchen sink faucet. Although, I only remember doing the wash using scalding hot sink water, had you chosen otherwise, you could have just as easily used cold water to perform the same wash cycle. The toasters show in this video were newer than the toasters I was acquainted. The toasters I had used were hand me downs from older family members, which dated back to the nineteen twenties. Each toaster had two doors, one door on each side that tilted down when open. To toast, you inserted your slice of bread into a wire rack and closed the door. The heating elements were fully exposed when the toaster was open and glowed red hot. Needless to say, toasters were not appliances that moms would allow the kids to operate. I had also encountered a few ice boxes. The wooden boxes that you ice deliveries brought to your home by some guy and his horse driven wagon. By the time I was introduced to ice boxes refrigeration was already prevalent and the old boxes were being given a second life being used for storage containers. Now these old appliances are hauled off to the junk or scrapyards. No second life for our current labor savers. Sad .

why show the same product over and over?

Please....PLEASE!! Stop moving the images! Difficult to watch, makes me ill.

[@cementer7665]

Nothing but a rep-off of the Recollection Road" series of videos, BUT along with the extremely annoying voice, and idiotic narrative, he adds segments of his other videos to extend the length. INTERESTING subject, BUT the annoying voice, and idiotic commentary make his videos virtuallly UNWATCHABLE.

[@MrStevos]

Not very informative, very repetitive, & just an annoying waste of time... 😟

[@chrisk7626]

I hate to burst your bubble but there's no advancements in toasters😂. If you do know of any please elaborate in detail😂😂 trying to fill up space in this KZbin episode. There is dangerous as they ever were.😂

At some point defrost as well as the bagel sitting was added I think the bagel setting just runs the burners on the crust side of the bagel a little cooler it keeps the burners on the cut side at full blast.

[@robertknight4672]

I almost forgot there's a new safety feature with the pop-up mechanism that's been around for a while. If your toaster comes unplugged or loses power well it's on the toast will pop up. Try pushing the lever down on a modern toaster weather unplugged and it won't stay down. Song vintage toaster in an antique store recently when was not plugged in I pushed the lever down and it stayed down. It was a Toastermaster that i think was from the 1960s.

[@drbluzer]

Look at the early days of the toaster and you'll find that they had open heating elements creating a dangerous shock hazard . When they finally enclosed them , it reduced the risk of shock . I don't think that there was a timer on the first toasters so you had to closely monitor it so your toast wouldn't burn . Toasters still have a risk of shock as you can't stick a metal utensil inside with the toaster plugged in .

[@chrisk7626]

@robertknight4672 all the Technologies you spoke of started in the 50s or 60s the majority of the toasters that were shown were from the 50s and 60s that claimed to have been dangerous. I was born in 1971 I had toasters from the 50s and 60s they all operated the same way. I never had any of those weird ones from the twenties that you laid the toast in and then closed. Other than that a toaster is a toaster is a toaster nothing stopping you from sticking a fork in there and electrocuting yourself is there?
