In this video I reject a modern China made thing $140 low tech washer and go old school instead with a wringer clothes washer. My partner bought a ‘wash machine’ on Amazon and expected me to make it work. I decided I’d rather spend the money on new tidy whiteys than buy that thing, so Yea! Amazon Return Policy, it’s going back…
It turns out we have a BETTER solution in the basement so I use that instead.
I had the choice of using an early 1960’s full size wringer wash machine sold at Gambles Department Stores made by Coronado or the tiny counter top wash machine made in the late 50’s model 135.73480 from Kenmore. I only had about 5lbs (dry weight) of clothes, so I went with the little one.
Watch me wash a load of clothes and run them thru the wringer. You MAY learn something, but most likely that will be never try this at home, kiddies…
