I got a set of Ginsu knives as a wedding present in 1985. I still have the knives. They outlasted the husband😂
😂😂👍mine too!!!😅
They were so shitty.
Mu-hahahahaha!😆
Lol
Is this code for you killed him with the knives?
I remember people decorating their kitchens with ducks that had "wedgwood blue" bows around their necks.
That was early 90's in my world. Either way, don't miss it One Bit!!
Geese, my mom had them in the early 90's.
@@supermama4748 yep. Lol
Ha ha, my mom still has some stuff like that in her kitchen. My sister made a duck towel rack and I made a duck wall plaque. Mom bought those kind of duck designed towels to go with the stuff we made. They're still there to this day! 😄💙
I still have that duck.
"But wait, there's more! We'll throw in a second set of Ginsu knives!" These things sure bring back memories. Thanks!
"and if you order now, we will throw in free shipping & handling, ORDER NOW !"
The late Billy Mays and his peculiar way to sell anything on infomercials... (sometimes with his co-hort Anthony (Sully) Sullivan)
TH-cam should throw in a Ginsu knife ad, just because....
The knives were made in Freemont, Ohio, and had NOTHING to do with any Asian company..The guy who made up the name, satirically stated it means 'I never have to work again'.........
It slices, it dices!
I remember my aunt seeing the 80s modern look, where everything was black and white. The whole home would be painted brilliant white, the furniture would be all black, sometimes glossy with gold accent. I lost it when she said it looked like a mental ward, that only a person that did not know how to cordinate decor would live in that. I must say in her defense, she was an expert in victorian and primitive country decor. Her home felt very warm, inviting and homey. I still use her techniques today....
I agree with your aunt
I can't remember how many times I was sawing a can with my Ginsu knife and suddenly had the urge to slice a tomato.
I Still do that and afterwards I shave with it 😂😂😆
Now they sell a scissors that will cut a penny (for those who know what a penny is). 😄😄
I still have a Ginsu knife I brought at "the new" mall over 40 years ago. It's been "retired" for several years. May dig out and use some more.
I can see the infomercials in my mind.
For circumcision too
I still like the regular old coffee makers, so much cheaper than the pods and less wasteful. I still have my oak table too.
I use a PERCOLATOR made in the 1970's! Coffee pods taste like MUD!
We got an oak entertainment center and a coffee table and two end tables all with glass tops. My mom helped us buy them for us so they are sentimental. We got comments over the years about them being "so 80's!" but we love them. They are so heavy and timeless to us we never intend to get rid of them. I got a beachy family room and they've finally come home...they look great in there. Maybe it was the maple stuff they were shoved in with at our smaller house that made them clashy.
@@jagboy69 mud, you must have more quantity of grounds to work than pods provide.
I love a baseball size pile of Starbucks French or Italian roast in a gold cone reusable filter pouring boiling water through a small hole in the side of the pile controlling the wetness to taste.
Remove it to next large cup or 2 cup Pyrex measuring cup when 2 inches more or less comes through.
That way your always drinking super Uber duper fresh nuke bomb brew!
I have my oak table too.
Never used pods
Don't forget the 52" canister ceiling fan in polish brass with five cane blades that reverse to oak wood blades with 4 tulip glass ligth kit.
Oh yes, my sister still has two of these, one in each upstairs bedroom. They work fine.
I remember buying my first microwave. It was an "AMANA RADAR RANGE". It was huge and all stainless steel, including the inside ! Had it for 27 years !
Amazing! I’ve lost count how many microwaves I’ve bought.
That was the first one I bought but I didn’t have it for 27 yrs 😂
Yoo I’m a young 21 year old Mexican tryna get out the wicked Hood by 25 😂i smoke weed on my TH-cam channel and i also did a burger king Mukbang inside target 🍔🤞
The power dipped using it.
I got the very same one in 1976, I gave it to my parents after I got out of college in 1977 and they still had it with it working great in 2006.
Another popular kitchen gadget of the 1980s by PRESTO was the "Fry Daddy".
Ah... yes! Late night fried dough!😋
Now we have air fryers.
I love my fry daddy.
Somehow the popcorn machine made popcorn taste terrible. How do you ruin popcorn?? Presto managed it.
They also had a fry baby. My mother has both. That thing actually made good French fries.
You always hit the mark correctly. This is exactly what a kitchen and life in the 80s was like! I wish I could relive this simple life, again.
Brings back good memories of me and my firends raiding the refrigerator, hanging out in the kitchen playing monopoly or risk at the kitchen table.
Nothing like seeing the things from the 80's, and still using them. Mostly the corning casserole ones are my favorites. I love all the Recollection video's.
I still have and use the corningwear dishes, plates, bowls, coffee cups, casserole sand baked pans, even electric percolator from my parents and grandparents. They’re perfectly good, no reason to buy others!
I still have some of those Corningware casserole dishes! Love them.
@@diannt9583 I used mine sunday. I love them too.
I have all my corningware and Corning Pyrex percolator
@Rolling Withthepunches yep.
For those that sneer at the "ugly" brass from back then you need to know it can prevent bacteria from spreading, and even completely destroy germs and bacteria.
Our 80's kitchen had a built-in cutting board that slid out like a drawer. I never see those anymore.
that's because they are difficult to clean properly and separate cutting boards for meat and veg are the recommendation.
You forgot to mention NuTone appliance centres and JennAir down draft cooking ranges…they were huge in the 80s. One correction however, dishwashers were a lot cheaper in the 80s. A base model cost around $260.00 and a tol $600.00. Now dishwashers can cost upwards of $1,500.00 to $4000.00. In the 80s dishwashers finished a heavy soil load in 60 minutes, now dishwashers take 3 or 4 hours to wash a regular load and dishes are often not clean after all that time. Appliances in the 80s were more diverse, better looking, better made, functional and durable. Now everything is expensive, disposable and cheaply made.
Agree everything back the. Was made to last
Today in the 2020's technology is superior but in the 1980's everyday life was superior.
I got the Presto popcorn maker for Christmas and I remember the Smurf glasses from Hardee's. Those were really the good old days!
I remember the E.T Glasses too from pizza hut
Hardee's big biscuits were great and a nice lady from the kitchen would come out and top off your coffee just like a real old fashioned diner/restaurant.
It made everyone feel great!
I love that popcorn maker because you could put butter in the lid, and it would melt and drip onto the popcorn.
My brother worked a McDonald's so whatever promotional item they had, we had. Many were local. Like Steeler glasses.
I was a kid in the 1980's. Our first dish washer was not set INTO the kitchen cabinets, but we rolled it from its spot over to the kitchen sink and attached it to the faucet. One night my mother stacked the dishwasher full of dirty dishes, but to her surprise, she had run out of dishwasher soap. SOOO she took the liquid dishwashing soap for sink washing, and filled the entire washing liquid cup with liquid soap. It was a scene right out of I Love Lucy !! Once the machine got running and the water connected with the soap and the agitator arm in the bottom began to turn, soap bubbles began to BUBBLE out of the machine. The entire kitchen was FULL of soap bubbles. It was hysterical. My mother thought she could get away with using liquid soap - when she ran out of the real stuff !! That was a very harsh lesson to learn for a housewife, who had never seen a dishwasher before in her life. My dad was not amused !!
I wish I had a time machine to go back to the 1980's😁I was a teenager then and those were great times😃ROCK ON!!!!!!!🤘🏻🤙🏻✌🏻
100% YES! ME TOO!
You were the perfect age to begin the 80s. I was born in 79 so I recall this golden age but did t experience all that much.
Born in 1968.....graduated high school in 1987.....loved the 80's but my favorite was the seventies
@@kellymarsh3956 I loved the 70's too. Best rock ever!
I would too. But especially to talk my brother out of taking his own life then. 😢
Novelty drinking glasses? Who remembers the BC comic strip glasses from Arby's?
Popples from Pizza Hut
One thing I didn't see in here because it was perhaps just a California thing..was the quite essential kitchen garden window that nearly every 1980's tract house came with. My grandmother's house that she bought in 1986 had one and she loved it. She proudly displayed all her ceramic ducks in it.
You can see the 1980s kitchen if you tune into your favorite episode of the Golden Girls. Blanches kitchen screamed the 1980s. Where they talked about their endless dates while eating cheese cake hehe.
Amana and Tappan products like the trash compactor were staple prizes on game shows! Haha! Don't forget that baseball legend Joe DiMaggio became a spokesman for Mr Coffee around this time too!
Had one of those Casio pocket televisions where you had to look at a mirror to view the screen
I remember my parents bought a microwave from Montgomery Ward when I was a kid in the 70s. It was huge and my mom had it until 5 or 6 years ago when she got a new one. The new microwave broke down last Christmas. Mom said that they don't make things like they used to. Appliances are now built to last for only a couple of years if you're lucky.
We had a Toshiba microwave lasted for 30 years, was working still when we sold the house in 2000.
We have a 35+ yo microwave at our camp. Still works good
I think our last microwave was like that, we renovated the kitchen at the time that thing broke down (if I recall, it was a panasonic), I think that one lasted only a couple of years. The new one (which is part of a stove hood so it has a fan under it to 'suck' some smoke away from the room it's being cooked in) is going on 3 years now.
Yea, pretty much dependent on the microwave gods, gotta pray to them and hope you get a microwave that lasts around 5-10 years now, especially for countertop models.
I'm pretty late to this party, but I just wanted to say thank you for what you do sir... These videos are so much fun. Especially to those of us who lived through all of it!
I don’t think the trash compactor concept was to contribute less trash, lol. It just compacted it down so you could shove more in the bag before having to take the trash out.
We had one of those but it was sooo heavy to take out.
They were marketed as a way to save landfill space because the trash could now be compressed into a smaller volume which was kind of stupid since there have been commercial trash compactors for about 30 years prior to the home trash compactors being manufactured.
@@sandragirardau1887 I used to help this lady who had one and yes they were heavy. It made me happy we didn't have one, lol.
You did it again. You made me timetravel again. And the music… wow!
About 1983 ceiling fans was popular and blinds on windows and doors didn’t came until 90’s. And in 1984 brand new apartment, I remembered General Electric kitchen appliances and color was strange. I wasn’t too sure if it was off white or beige. Later, it was almond colored instead of harvest gold. And in 1988 dining set was Sears Open Home Collection in antique cherry with ladder back chairs. I remembered chairs cost $215 each and arm chairs $255. I still have it and keep Polish it real good.
The dinning set and chairs are keeper.
The infomercials bring back plenty of memories. I grew up extremely poor and we did not have most of these things, we did not have a dishwasher until I was a teenager and we moved into more modern housing in the 90s.
I was so poor. I had none of these things except a Mr. Coffee. I didn't even have M'TV. Imagine a teen without music television. 😢
@@peekaboots01 MTV has been trash for a couple of decades anyway and not music at all but lame reality shows.
I remember my folks building their first dream home in 1988. The sunshine ceiling, the polished brass was EVERYWHERE, the popcorn machine, novelty glasses and the vertical blinds, oh yes! We had it all. The tough choice was a Delphi blue or dusty rose for the blinds and wall to wall carpet. Man, I loved being a child of the 80’s. I would not trade it to be a child now! Definitely gave me a trip down memory lane. Awesome video. PS, those blue flower Corning ware dishes, I’m pretty sure EVERY mom of the 80’s owned those in their kitchens!😁
Did you also have a floor model TV?😄
Thankfully it was on wheels at the bottom!😗
@@dewilew2137 yes I sure did! It weighed a ton! I wasn’t sure at first what that was but oh yes! We had 2 of them!
My parents' house, which was 3 years old when they bought it in 1985, came with a trash compactor. Later they added an island with a dishwasher in one end of it. The 1988 addition, which is basically another house, included a trash compactor and dishwasher as well. But they never had a Mr. Coffee because my mom never drank coffee, ever. They also never had vertical blinds. But I do remember them in public places like dentist offices or whatever.
Let's see
Mr. Coffee, yep we had one
Hot air popcorn popper, sure did
Our kitchen appliances were white
Table was oak veneer
Mom was the food processor
My sister and I were the dishwasher
I was also the trash compactor. The novelty glasses were also a thing in the late 70s and before Hardee's had Smurf glasses, they had Looney Toons glasses.
🤣🤣
I grew up in the 80s and I remember one of the best things in our kitchen was the phone on the wall with the long 12' foot cord so you could stretch it out while talking and doing stuff in the kitchen. lol.
One thing I remember is the pasta maker machines, which was supposed to be a staple in the Yuppie household, and how the well-to-do could order various kitchen gadgets from the Sharper Image catalogue.
I don't remember any 80s kitchens that were specifically built to accommodate a home computer.
Ours did. So did a lot of my friends and neighbors. I think it was probably confined to tech hubs where a lot of people had programming or tech jobs like Seattle or Silicon Valley. My dad used it for work but then we got to play on it too. We got a second one and did a big remodel in 1983 to make my dad a computer room because my brothers and I were always on it. Most of my cohorts had at least one computer in the house of not two. We were not rich. Just middle class. Most of us had those old apple 2 computers for fun and our dads had IBMs for work.
Me either. My friends had a computer in the dining room. Most kitchens I remember were just big enough to be a kitchen.
I do. In some new homes
@@cheeseballs3825 I remember computers taking up the end of dining room tables. And the printer, with box of dot matrix paper on the floor. Ugh.
I got my first computer in 1984. I kept in my bedroom. My parents didn't get theirs until mid 90s, and only because e-mail was beginning to become essential for home businesses. Dad didn't even touch it until the early 2000s after Mother (his unofficial secretary) passed away.
No one I knew kept a computer in their kitchen!
Great video. One thing that was missing big time was TV's in the kitchens.
Friends of ours had a tv in the kitchen that was about 5” and it was so cool
@@chanel113 Yes, they were about that small to fit under the overhead cabinets. All of our moms had them.
Also the can opener that hung under the cabinets, but maybe that was introduced in the 70s
the air popper was an awesome popcorn maker. loved the hot butter who just poured from the top.
I had one in college in the 80's. We were not allowed to have microwaves in the dorms, so the air popper was the late nite snack go to.
I bought an air popper about 20 years ago now and I still have it.
My wife and I still use our Cuisinart food processor and had some younger folks over at our house for dinner and they thought it was awesome.
Just this month, our trash disposal service drastically reduced the amount of trash they would haul. I asked my husband whatever happened to trash compactors, we could sure use one now.
@I'm done with covid!!!!!!!! I’m done with covid too. !!! Just today found out I have it again. !!! Dr no help.
Won’t even try to give anything to help with symptoms. I find that hard to believe. 😡
Thank you for another trip down memory lane, when life was so fun to me.
@I'm done with covid!!!!!!!! Me too. It was a blast!
Minus the HIV/AIDS pandemic, the crack epidemic, Reganomics, and the kooky satanic panic.
@@jesshill1007 I remember all that as well.
Very true! Loved the Ginsu knife commercials..... “cuts tomatoes so thin that your in-laws will never return”. Ha!
I, have a AMANA Designer Stainless Steel washer, which still works until this very day. I, love the 1980's kitchens.
pre pandemic built is much better than what they selling now.
We have a white Amana stove that came with our studio apartment. Works great!
Oh my gosh, the Mr. Coffee coffee maker!
The 80s when things were simple.
Horseshit
Exactly
The 80s. I was just starting out on my own then. Things didn't seem simple, sorry.
Yeah, if you were a child.
And common sense
Forgot the phone on the wall with a long chord, or on the bar counter
Usually what the desk in the kitchen was for.
Still have the complete set of 1982 Smurf glasses from Hardee's! Have them on display in my home.
I have vertical blinds as the cats like to look out the windows and regular and mini blinds get broken or bent and destroyed.
I have vertical blinds too.
My parents did their late 50s early 60s kitchen in the early 80s. The dining room disappeared, now that was the only table. Built in dishwasher replaced the one we rolled to the sink. Corner sink. Garbage and recycling drawer. Built in microwave/range hood. Freezer with an ice maker, which turned out to be fantastic for me. Overall, it was far less user friendly. There was already room for more cabinets. Should've put in a dishwasher, the microwave/range hood, new taps. New cupboard and drawer faces. No more.
i'm 60. Different family members had automatic dishwashers my whole life. Never did any of us view ourselves as "well off". i'm glad You phrased it that way. It has forced me to re-evaluate my perceptions from those times in light of a now much broader world view. Were we well off? Yes we were. i don't come from a family with millions, but i was ridiculously, unbelievably wealthy and i was just too young and ignorant to understand !:-)
In my childhood home, I don't think that the kitchen had been updated much since the 1930s. There was still a porcelain, double-basin, pedestal sink & an oil stove that had been converted to gas. The latter also had an attached space heater. We had to connect the washin' machine to the faucet (our uncle later gave us a standalone dishwasher, which had to be connected in the same way). Although we did get a microwave in 1986 (albeit w/ a mechanical timer).
I remember kitchen trash compactors, but never actually saw one in someone’s kitchen. They must have been an epic failure. Dish washers were common by the 1980s and I don’t think they were notoriously expensive. We were a middle/middle-class family and had a dishwasher from the 1960s.
When I was growing up in the 80s we actually had one and it worked really good, it did hold a huge amount of garbage which would make it heavy on trash day. I also remember it having some odor because the trash stayed in it longer.
When my parents had a new house built in 1980. It included an over the range microwave. We were so excited. It even came with a microwave cookbook. They never had one before.
I owned a kitchen aid dish washer in the 80s and I had a trash contractor too. Mr. Coffee . Great video.
Dishwashers did not run for 3 hours. Usually under an hour. It is todays dishwashers that run for 3 hours.
Exactly. The dishwashers back then were much faster and the dishes were cleaner, because more water was “allowed” to be used. The modern dishwashers are much slower.
@@jamessteele7102 My mom got a new KitchenAid dishwasher in the late ‘80s. It steamed the dishes before washing to loosen everything. Supposedly there was no need to rinse the dishes before loading.
Our 80s kitchen was part 70s... sunshine yellow countertops and appliances (with a dishwasher and compactor) and dark cabinets and the drop down ceiling with lights. Such good memories though... stretching the phone cord across the kitchen to fix a snack while chatting with your bff :) I'd love to go back!
I still use a Mr Coffee every morning.
I bought a Cuisinart food processor in 1977, when they first were introduced to the USA. My original machine still works! I have had to replace the bowl part, and a blade, but it has been a great machine throughout my adult life.
I found what looks like the exact Cuisinart displayed in the video at a thrift store. It works great. It even came with the accessories shown.
I can cut up a 5lb bag of scalloped potatoes in mere minutes. Good luck doing that by hand.
I never did like the tile counter tops. They were hard to keep clean and they were not smooth. The tiless on the edges had a habit of falling off.
Agree !!
Actually, I still like tile, yes, the grout might need cleaning, and I hate that, but some art tiles are beautiful or charming. I'm getting tired of granite, etc.. This video seems more like late 70s and early 80s. The later 80s had more bling bling. For sure, glass top tables were everywhere. I liked the 80s as there were fewer regulations and better friendships, so we could accomplish new and interesting things.
I remember seeing onenfor the first time and thinking it was so great. It was a brand new countertop and still looked fantastic. But they did not wear well. Like shag rug.
@@MissBabalu102 I like tile counters too, I enjoy hearing the sound when I put the glass baking dish there fresh from the oven. I do that gently of course.
We had those damn tile counters and I hated them because once a month, we had to take everything off of them and scrub the grout with Comet. That was in addition to wiping them down every day.
My favorite coffees are still from a drip coffee maker. My mom had one and she also had the Space Saver Mr. Coffee that was mounted under the top kitchen cabinets. Not sure if that came out in the 90's or 80's.
I know I got the space saver in the early ‘90s, but they could have come out sooner.
The litton microwave was made smaller for under the counter. My mom had one in 1985. Along with an under the counter toaster oven and a Mr. Coffee. Under the counter mounts became all the rage in the mid 80s.
ya i have seen this drip maker sitting in an abandoned dinner they had two side by side. now its just pods all plastic
this dinner is like is frozen in time with everything still in it
The synthwave music in the video is a nice touch 👍
Around 1982 or 1983 my mom and dad replaced the rusty brown stove & refrigerator for almond, we thought we were so cool. We had one dishwasher in the mid to lat 70s, one of those on wheels that you plugged into the kitchen faucet so during the cycle you couldn't use the sink for anything else. The problem was we had to spend so much time rinsing the dishes before putting them into the dishwasher we eventually just stopped using it and it became another counter like surface in the kitchen and that was the last and only dishwasher my family had.
we had that same dishwasher when I was a kid in the 70's lol I still remember it too it had a butcher block top and it was brown and I do remember now thinking about it if you didn't get the hose connected right water would spray all over the place lol. Ours had the quick connect coupler on it but I think if I remember right there was a diverter valve on mine.
@@bretthibbs6083 I remember that!!!! Ohhhhh NO here comes MOM!!!! Paper towels sopping up water on the walls and floor!!! Always forgot to dry myself, darn me!!!
What ever decade one lived and "grew up" in was the coolest. 50's 60's 70's 80's. It don't matter.
True, but kids today are growing up in a very sick society, big difference.
For me it was the 90s 😂❤️ Such a fun time to be a kid!
@@taradc6037 Yes, you are the last batch to be truly happy in a pure way.
as an 80s baby I definitely remember some of these things we always had a dishwasher though we didn't have a trash compactor in our house but my late maternal grandmother did and had since the 1970s when they moved to Saugus in 1974
We didn’t have a trash compactor either. Thank goodness. That probably stunk as bad as sink disposals. Those things are gross.
@@thebewitchinghour831 My sister had both and neither of them ever stunk.
I had two of the appliances shown in this video; the almond GE top freezer refrigerator and the almond Kitchenaid KDS-18 dishwasher. The refrigerator lasted until 2011. The dishwasher until 1994.
As a pet & house sitter , I often see newer model Mr.Coffees in many upscale homes ; occasionally next to a Keurig - nice to have a choice ! 🙂☕
Circa 2015 I asked for a food processor for Christmas. My dad researched not just the best new food processor but the best of ALL TIME and bought me that exact one on eBay. And it is a tank! Love it!
Growing up, our homes had 70s kitchen decor but my first condo was from the late 80s. We had dishwashers since the mid 70s but never a trash compactor. By the 80s it was microwaved popcorn to go with a VHS movie. My parents were heavy coffee drinkers and went thru a ton of Mr Coffee or equivalent brewers. None lasted more than a few years, 5 tops.
I have a Braun from the early 1990s with a delayed start timer that still works perfectly.
Five years is quite a long time for frequent use of something that inexpensive.
Yes, most of my friends homes had dishwashers in the 70s
Boy this takes me back to the good old days of when I was growing up.
Those drop ceiling lights always looked like the mother ship was landing in the kitchen.😂
In the 80s, I had kitchen chores after school that I did while watching MTV Top 10 Countdown.
Lucky! Our kitchen was not equipped with a tv and the living room was at the other end of the house. Just did my chores with the radio on.
@@beaglemama7928, we had a bar above the kitchen sink, and if you were at the sink, you could see into the living room.
@@drusmith3480 well that's pretty cool!
Miss the under the cabinet coffee maker and toaster oven
Love this video. It’s all my childhood although my mom was scared of microwaves and we didn’t get one until 1992!
@I'm done with covid!!!!!!!! My family didn't get Illinois Bell service until 1991. Hard to think things we take for granted were luxuries over 35 years ago.
Our forever home we bought a year ago was built in 1991 with only one previous owner. The vertical blinds were on EVERY FREAKING WINDOW. And the ones he got had this awful dark green cloth over them. We are still phasing them out of our house with modern ones. The house even came with a landline phone, with a cord, attached to the wall in the kitchen and the microwave was mounted above the stove but was from 1992!! It was like a crazy time warp walking into this house the first time.
The microwave being mounted over the stove is a trend that needs to die a horrible death... it's so tacky looking.
Oh my goodness! My grandparents remodeled their kitchen when I was a small child and did a lot of these things to a tee, the glass table, the wallpaper, etc. I remember all the cups from neighbors and relatives houses!
I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, we are finding it impossible to replace it. We can get by, but cant seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
The crazy part is that those advisors are probably outperforming the market and raising good returns but some are charging fees. Is this the case with yours too?
@Dominic Haley Oh please, how can someone get to speak with Mrs Sarah Mary Mears!!?
@Dominic Haley
@Dominic Haley What a huge coincidence... Mrs Sarah Mary Mears is also my FA{financial advisor}
My First investment with Mrs Sarah gave me 86K USD and that has made me invest without the fear of losing, I got four of my friends that I referred to her and They are making profits just like me May God bless Mrs Sarah Mary Mears.
Ahhh, the 80's! Good years.......
Our house was built in 1970 so it was cool to see the first all white kitchen.
Yep! Gone were the funky colors of the 70's :)
It is a testament to how much I love these videos... that I can look past the effing commercials now being done at the beginning of each one.
I love EVERYTHING 80's!
Great video!👍🍿
Oak timber kitchens with apricot laminate were popular in the 80s too- I remodeled my 50s kitchen as a 24 year old. I also put in a round, brown enamelled sink with almond, enamelled taps. Now I look back that 50s kitchen was a gem!
LMAO! My current house was built in 1991, and had all of this. I swore the builder forgot what decade he was in, and your video proves this!
Mine too!!!
I still have and use my 1978 GE Microwave.
and probably built like a tank !!
Thank you so much Recollection Road for uploading this great video, I appreciate it!
I still have the 1960's kitchen I grew up with. Never had much 80's stuff except for touch lamps and that air popper than became brittle and fell apart. Ended up with a hot pot popper which I still have!
We grew up in a 1930s quad apartment building. In the 1980s, Mom replaced most of her vintage Revere Ware with enamel ware that did not last (I eventually inherited old stainless and Revere Ware from various friends and acquaintances, though we often use cast iron). Outside of that we used a stovetop percolator, ate Jiffy Pop popcorn, and had a microwave. Very minimalist for the time, ha ha. My old house has a 1960s updated kitchen that I love: Formica counters, and no dishwasher, trash compactor or trash cabinet. My Oster blender has a food processor attachment, and we regularly use an air popper.
I love your videos! When I watch them I wish I had a time machine and go back in time and never come back.
Love the TRS 80 in the opening scene. Reminds me of my days at Radio Shack.
Anyone remembers Love’s BBQ? We still have Marie Calendar’s, but there was long line back then.
You really do know your stuff and give such excellent examples of everything! Like a talented museum curator who chooses the right works and artists to tell a certain story.
I still have my mothers popcorn maker! Great memories! I still have a VCR and VHS tapes too.
I remember my brother getting on his bike to go to burger King to get the star wars glasses, he still has them today because his wife let him keep them when they got married.
His wife "let" him keep them? LOL
We bought a new home in California in 1974. It came with a microwave oven, a trash compactor, a garage door opener, and a double sized bathtub.
let me ask you how much did you pay for your house in 1974 , I was born in 74 & I live in Florida
Livin Large!
I bought my house from someone in their 90s who hadn’t updated the house, and over a couple years I’ve removed a lot of these things from the kitchen like the plastic-covered dropped lights, dishwasher, etc. I kept her funky mushroom print shelf liners.
The 80s kitchen started to be filled with colors and foods related to advertising campaigns for various TV shows, toys, video games, etc. A very commercialized kitchen, even more so than the 50s before it. Kids could expect to eat a cereal based on their favorite TV show or action figure
yup and normally find a prize within that cereal as well.
Arby's had the BC comic strip novelty glasses. I have several sets. My favorite design was the character called 'Fat Broad' who was never depicted without her club and of whom the poor green snake always seemed to run afoul.
On the Arby's glass, the snake was shown coiled around the club with a little love-heart thought balloon.
We had a set of those! I guess my dad probably still has those.
Gronk?
lol
Ummm anyone notice the Dunkin' Doughnut coff cup behind the Ginsu chef? LMAO We never had a glass top table and still despise them today!
I despise glass tables..cold ugly and too much maintenance
I still own the oak table that sat 10 of us…. So solid… cannot find that quality these days unless you spend a fortune…
My husband and I built a new house in 1984, I had the kitchen aid dishwasher, trash compactor, uline mail ice maker , Jenn aire electric stove with grills plus. Four burners, roper gas double ovens a microwave which was built in. A black and decker coffee maker, which hung from the cupboard to keep it off the counter and a large pull out cutting board to make pie crusts on and noodles. The kitchen was tiled with brown grout, no cleaning necessary. My cooktop looked onto the family room and had seating for three, completely flat. I learned to cook by watching. I guess I was spoiled.
