Is there such a thing as cold water being "too cold" to be effective at rinsing or at washing with modern detergents? I know that at one time I saw that most detergent manufacturers considered cold water to be no colder than about room temperature - 65 to 70° farenheit. Has anyone noticed...

Technology to the rescue In addition to what John says above, technology and market supply/demand issues are likely going to come to our rescue here. There are companies out there right now that already selling "smart" circuit breaker panels that will allow a full electric home to operate on...

And finally...the "dirty laundry" It is extremely curious that in seasons 7 & 8 the Stephens' kitchen does not contain a washing machine. Only a dryer. Yes, I looked. More than once. The area near the side door that held a washer and dryer in seasons 1 thru 6 had been shrunk by season 7 so...

Refrigerator #4 The redesigned kitchen also contained a new refrigerator. This was a significant departure from the 3 Frigidaire models with bottom freezers that came before. It was a side-by-side in harvest gold. I have not been able to positively identify it. I can say with relative certainty...

Steve, to your second point, I don't have complete service literature on the K or L line dishwashers, only on the J line. I do have the 63-68 Digest version. The information that I'm posting in the scans below informs my post above asbout the second dishwasher that appeared halfway through...

Steve, the service literature is ambiguous about the difference between the 1963 and 1964 dishwasher models. There does seem to be an "F" series for 1963 and an "H" series for 1964. But there appears to be no difference between the two other than a different model designation:

Dishwasher #3 The seasons 7 & 8 dishwasher is a Mayag WU600 in Harvest Gold[this post was last edited: 4/12/2021-21:43]

Ovens And here are the ovens. I have not positively identified these as Tappan, but it seems likely that they are given the cooktop.[this post was last edited: 4/12/2021-21:12]

Seasons 7 & 8 In the summer of 1970 there was a fire the set that destroyed much of the kitchen area of the set. This necessitated things being rebuilt and the replacement of all of the appliances. At this point, it would seem that the Stephens decided to add a breakfast room off of the back of...

The Chest Freezer For a very brief moment in one episode of season 4, we see Samantha and Endora pop INSIDE the closet that is adjacent to the kitchen outside door. The interior of this closet is HUGE! Among the contents of this room are a larger chest freezer of an unknown manufacturer.

Dishwasher #2 The second dishwasher on Morning Glory Circle first appears in episode 23 of season two. It is somewhat significant in that it is the first model year of the redesigned wash system that used a more traditional lower wash arm and central wash tower. Given the panel, this should...

Dishwasher #1 The first dishwasher on Morning Glory Circle is seen in episode 4 of season one. It was most likely a 1964 Frigidaire Imperial Spin-tube model (DW-IUH). There was very little significant change between the 1963 F-line and 1964 H-line dishwashers so it's hard to know for certain...

Washer and Dryer #3 For season three, a new set of Custom Imperial Frigidaires appear: Washer #3: Frigidaire 1967 WCIL, sunny yellow (first seen in ep. 3-29) Dryer #3: Frigidaire 1967 DCIL, sunny yellow (first seen in ep. 3-29) These appear any number of times in seasons 3-6, but this one...

Washer and Dryer set #2 The second set appears for the first time about halfway through season 2 along with the change of the refrigerator and range. They are: Washer #2: Frigidaire 1966 WCIAK (first seen in ep. 2-23) Dryer #2: Frigidaire 1966 DCIAK (first seen in ep. 2-23)

Washer and Dryer set #1 The first set of laundry appliances appear only briefly in one episode of season one. They are the (now) super-rare 1964 Frigidaire Custom Imperials: Washer #1: Frigidaire 1964 WCI-64 (first seen in ep. 1-30) Dryer #1: Frigidaire 1964 DCI-64 (first seen in ep. 1-30)

Refrigerator #3 The third refrigerator arrived with season three in the fall of 1966. It was a Frigidaire 1966 FPI-14BK, in sunny yellow (first seen in ep. 3-1). Since this one hung around for 4 full seasons, there are a lot of pictures of it.

Refrigerator #2 The second refrigerator was a Frigidaire 1965 FD-14BJ (first seen in ep. 2-19)

On to refrigerators The first refrigerator on Morning Glory Circle was a Frigidaire 1964 FD-14B-64 (first seen in ep. 1-3, last in ep. 2-17)

And on to 1164 Morning Glory Circle and the Flair Ranges Samantha and Darrin's new home on Morning Glory Circle is somewhat famous for the stylized Frigidaire "Flair" ranges that graced the kitchen for the first 6 seasons. There were actually 3 different Flair ranges that appear between the...

During the past year, I have had a lot of time on my hands. One of the things that I have done is watch the entire series of "Bewitched" from beginning to end. All 254 episodes. A little ways into the series, I really found myself being drawn to the major appliances that graced the Stephens'...
