A new gracious way of living !

I love it ! And how cool is that inserted in the thread ! I loved that kitchen too. The angled cupboards with sliding glass were cool. And the half wall with built-in oven. I WANT ONE !
 
I'm glad I hae a General Electric Disposal!!!!! I"m so liberated!!! And it's true, my food waste in the garbage is reduced to absolute minimal!!
 
Oh Robert!
What fun!
I just love YouTube.com!
I could spend all day, searching for stuff.
Thanks for posting this!

We have a simalar model in the kitchen. It's a dangerous design. Instead of having the switch on the drain, the disposal should have a switch on the counter.
I tried putting corn cob in the disposal, it just jammed the machine...I had to wait until the next day so the cob could rot...
 
Super cool video-loved the kitchen-was almost like the one we had out here at work-and the disposer was similar.Loved the big cast hammers in the unit and the famous GE carboloy shredder.And the items being run thru it--was as amusing as the SSI and Komar crusher-shredder videos.Wished GE still built their disposers just like the one shown in that video.Thats a fine machine compared to the trashy disposers built today.On corncobs-think you are supposed to break or cut them into smaller chunks before loading them into a home type disposer-now one of those commercial 15Hp ones should take them whole with no problem.The hammers in those are almost like the swing blades in a bush hog!also about that GE-loved how easy it was to get into them for repairs-have worked on some GE machines with the clamp ring like was shown.They used that for a good long time.Their machines were easy to service!!
 
Dangerous design!!!????

How do you figure that Corey??? a continuos feed model is much more dangerous for a # of reasons. First off when a continuous feed disposall is running items like silverware can accidently get sucked down the drain and be destroyed or jam the unit. That can't happen in a batch feed model with a twistop. Second if you have little kids they could climb up on the counter and flip the switch on a continuous feed diposall and then stick anything and everything into the disposall including their hands. Again that can't happen with a batch feed model. I will admit batch feed models are not as convienient as continuous feed models as you and they do not handle things like corn cobs quite as well either because they have to start grinding them from a complete stand still where a continous feed model can already be running at full speed so it is not such a strain on the unit, but on the flip side if you are installing a disposall where their never was one before batch feed models cost less to install because all there electrical components i.e the switch is contained in the unit where continuous feed models require extra electrical wiring for the wall switch. IMHO continuous feed models are the way to go because there are more convienient NOT because they are safer which they are not. PATRICK COFFEY
 
For most codes today-they prohibit disposer switches on or in the front of the counter-those would be within easy reach of children and adults could activiate them accidently by brushing them with their bodies as they work at a counter-Thats why you see most contunious feed disposer switches on the wall above the counter-away from kids and can't be accidently turned on.And yes batch feeders are preferred if kids are about-disposers are fascinating and dangerous devices to them.
 
They call him Flipper, Fruit Flipper, faster than lightning.

Robert, you are a genius for finding that...

Now replay that queue and replace Bess Myerson with Roseanne.

Did anyone notice the dishwasher to the right of the sink? A c. 1961 GE TOL roll-out with a pink interior as well as exterior!!!
 
Dispose-all-ation!!

Awesome video!! Reminds me of the educational films we used to watch in grade school; you know, the ones that always broke in the middle of the presentation and then had to be rethreaded!!

Thank heavens we now have wall switches for our disposals! I'm not real keen on sticking my hand in a sink full of kitchen scraps!
