Differences among Mixmasters I have three model 12 Mixmasters and one is clearly quieter than the others. I have a model 7B, a model 9, a model 11C, one 14CSW, and one 701-10D. The last was NOS in the original sealed box. Swapped out the brown plastic stand for a metal chromed one. This time...

Thank you Appreciate the comments Lighting the Deep Well Burner seems like a "royal" inconvenience to me! I can understand the longer preheat time with the heavy cast iron bottom plate too. Surface burners were claimed to have a spiral flame that was to be more efficient in heating pots and...

Low Silhouette Blender I have one of these blenders too, uses the same plastic used to make most food processor workbowls. Nice concept blender that did not use any of their standard parts. Once discontinued parts were no longer available not long after. It was available around 1964 before...
