What are your dream machines yet to be found?
Clock,timer,light for my O'Keefe and Merritt
What are your earliest and favorite appliance memories?
My parent's refrigerator. It was round and the freezer on the top had to be defrosted at least once a year.
What is the history of appliances you have owned?
When I bought my house I used my income tax refund to buy a washingmachine. I bought one on sale that could recycle water from the laundry sink. Whirlpool only made them one year.
Bought my O'Keefe & Merritt stove from local charity thrift store and they even delivered and put it in place. Local utility hooked it up and showed me how to use it. I've been slowly restoring it bit by bit ever since.
Have you ever worked on, repaired and/or restored any major appliances?
Am working on restoring my O'Keefe & Merritt gas stove but my Whirlpool gas dryer just stopped drying so must look at repairing that. It is from the 90s.
