Thanks, Cindy! I guess when you start collecting things you really get into it - that's what happened to me with these appliances! Glad I can share the collection this way!
I love vintage appliances. A few months ago I thrifted a beautiful Sunbeam Mixmaster stand mixer in chrome. And it was only 11.00. Yesterday I thrifted a chrome Hamilton Beach Scoville hand mixer. This was only 2.99! They look so adorable displayed together. Cute chrome twins.
Hi Kev!!! What a perfect way to wake up in the morning with coffee and a vintage mixer tour! This was terrific and a great trip down memory lane! My Mom and Gram both had hand mixers when I was growing up but we never had a stand mixer. I can’t remember which type but from looking at the video I believe they were Hamilton Beach... I can remember when it was someone’s birthday and my mom mixing away in the kitchen and she would always have it plugged into her Westinghouse Terrace Top stove! Yup, I had one growing up! Not sure if I told you that? Forgive me if I did. It was sooooo awesome and makes me smile when I see the videos of yours! Moms was a specialty color from 1963 and it was a brown color but didn’t have the backsplash with the light as yours does. So cool how it just looks built in. She would always use the socket on it to plug in her hand mixer... just the sound of that oven door opening makes me smile! Thanks for all the memories Kevin! Can’t wait to someday visit you boys at Cavalcade! 🥰 stay safe!!! Jeff xo
Hi Jeff! Wow you grew up with a Terrace Top! I know the model you are referring to and I have one in the collection that is a gold color. Someday it will make it's way into the kitchen studio! The one I have at the house with the lighted backsplash is from 1963. Many people didn't have stand mixers. They either didn't need one or didn't have room for one. A good hand mixer could do a lot of the regular mixing jobs. Glad you liked the video!! Stay well and strong!!!
Very nice collection! I'm impressed that these mixers from about 80 years ago still work well. If only stuff made in the current era would hold up as well. I'm so frustrated with all the obsolete junk from most manufacturers these days that breaks or wears out very quickly.
Hi xtafpfhr! Thank you - many of these older appliances were very well made and designed to last for years of service, and be repaired if needed. It's too bad they don't make things that way now. Thanks for watching!
I have a few 'hand' and or 'stand' Hamilton Beach mixers that work great and are from the 1930's and late 1920's They were stand mixers, not real big, but you could life the mixer off of the stand and use it as a hand held portable mixer.
We had the white atomic GE. I believe my parents got it as a wedding gift in 1960. It lived well into the mid-90s. I have a KitchenAid stand mixer and a Cuisinart hand mixer. I prefer the hand mixer. I feel like I have greater control and I don’t need to stop and scrape down the bowl nearly so often. But I’ll tell you what, that KitchenAid is worth its weight in gold at Christmas when I make a double batch of my family’s lebkuchen recipe.
Hi Adam! Sounds like the GE mixer your parents got had a good long life! The hand mixers are more convenient for many things, but I agree that a good, strong, sturdy stand mixer like your KA is priceless when doing the big jobs or working with heavy dough. I'll bet the lebkuchen is wonderful! Thanks!
When I retired and relocated I bot the stand mixer of my dreams. The reviews were true... they don’t work well with small batches! Out comes my trusty hand mixer for small batches!
We had a white version of the George Jetson GE hand mixer. It also had a hole in the front grill you could attach a knife sharpener to it. You would take the mixer blades off and set the mixer on the table. I remember it had little rubber bars on the bottom that allowed it to rest flat on the table. He would then turn it on high and the Grindstone would turn and you can sharpen your knives.
Thank you Kevin for the great teaching and showing us your wonderful collections! Until I watched your videos, I was unaware that vintage electric appliances are still very much available. So I bought a vintage toaster and two electric frying pans! By the way, the GE refrigerator in your kitchen is the exact same my parents had in our kitchen as I was growing up. By the way, I do miss watching you guys in the cottage!
Hi Lucy! Wonderful that you found a vintage toaster and electric skillets! Enjoy them! Most of the older small appliances were very well built and will last a long time! I think that GE fridge in the kitchen is a 1949 model - and it still works well! The cottage was fun, but I'm glad to have a place to use November-May. Thanks so much!
Love your collection! My mom had an old GE. She used it until she stopped cooking in the early 2000s. I remember that sound and it always meant something good was in progress. Thanks for sharing.
This is one of the best channels I have found for old kitchen appliances. You can never fail to shine the light on how things used to be before the disposable tech age. The recipes are great too. I only have a few kitchen appliances. I prefer the mixers most so far. I collect vacuums (mainly vintage Electroluxes), as well. (And typewriters, although that collection is paused for now since I have no space for any more of them.) Anyways, 1968 Sunbeam Mixmaster Stand Mixer MMB---Chrome, steel bowls, no dough hooks as standard. 175 watts. The base, handle front, juicer pin, portable switch, and bottom frame all metal. Most inner components and gears are all metal. Heavy, better for keeping stuff down like choco-chips in cookie batter. 12 Speeds. Bakelite platter. 1974 Sunbeam Mixmaster Stand Mixer model MMA---White, clear glass bowls, dough hooks as standard. 200 watts. The handle front, juicer pin, portable switch, and bottom frame are all metal. 12 speeds. Most inner components are metal, yet less than the former one. Heavy yet lighter than the former. It's a tradeoff. 198X Hamilton Beach Scoville Hand mixer model 97-1. (Unknown power level) Brown and tan. Beaters only as standard. Very good for whipping, the beaters spin very fast. Also, all plastic. The inner gears are metal though, as well as the bushings. Very light. 1976-68 Oster Osterizer Imperial Dual-Cycle Pulse*Matic 16. (Unknown power level). Avocado and chrome. Glass jar with removable bottom blade assembly (made of bakelite). It cycles on and off when set to the cycling mode. Very heavy. 8 speeds. Very quiet.
Hi Richard! Glad you enjoy the videos. Looks like you have a nice collection of vintage appliances, and a couple of really good Sunbeam Mixmasters. When we start getting to around 1980 you see more and more plastic parts and designs that were not intended to last a long time and people would throw away and buy new every few years. When they started making more products outside of the US, weight became an issue because things had to be shipped a long distance, so things got even lighter and thinner. Enjoy your well-made vintage appliances!
My Sunbeam is still in the (somewhat battered) box from 1998. I bought it new when I purchased my co-op apartment. It still works great and is pretty heavy. I don't have room for a stand mixer. In fact my apartment is so small that when I want to bake I have to take out all of the pots and pans I store inside the stove. I think I paid $19 for it, I remember buying all of my small appliances at Woolworths. I bought a Proctor Silex coffee maker ( now on my second one), an Oster blender (glass not plastic), a Toast Master 2 slice toaster and none of them cost over $20. This was in 1998. It might have been the year that Woolworths went out of business.
I grew up shopping at Woolworths and was so sad when they went out of business and their stores became shoe stores. Sitting at the lunch counter and have an ice cream float of banana split was always such a treat. I remember sometimes they would have balloons and you would pop one, and behind the balloon would be the price you had to pay for your banana split. Those days are long gone.
Hi Kevin A few dates The Sunbeam Mixmaster Junior came out in white in 1952, Colors in 1955 The yellow Sunbeam HM is about 1960-62, Hamilton Beach Mixettes like the first one came out in 48, With the Model G stand mixer, and yes Hamilton Beach did make many Sears mixers starting in 1958 after Birtman sold out to Whirlpool and spun the mixers off to HB Before that Birtman made their vacuums and mixers and blenders,
Hi Hans!! I knew you would know this information!! Thanks so much, and as you can see I still use that Westinghouse mixer you sent me! I thought the later Sears mixers were HB, so thanks for confirming that. Hope all is well with you!!
Hi Kevin and Ralph! Thanks for another great video! I love your Vintage Tours. Hand held mixers bring back a lot of memories. :) Love the cursive handwriting too! Have a great day. :)
Wow, I still have and use the gold color GE hand mixer you displayed! I believe I received it as a wedding gift in 1978! Still works good as new, never had a need to buy a stand mixer.
Cavalcade of Food Love your videos. My husband is a Polish/Irish Michigander raised in a Dearborn Hts. He has siblings and oodles of cousins still living in Michigan
Cavalcade of Food your cottage kitchen is so much like my in-laws was. Next time we visit Michigan, we’ll have to take a road trip to Croswell to window shop your museum!
I have the same one in "Harvest Gold", my sister got it for a wedding present in 1979. The marriage ended after 10 years, but the mixer is going strong for 40 years.
😃 Yay! I was waiting for another appliance video! Now I know much more about hand held mixers than I did yesterday! 😉 😉 Who says you don’t learn something new everyday? I can’t wait until you bring a new antique range into the studio kitchen! Thanks for another great video!
My grandmother had her first KitchenAid Hand Mixer back in 1993. Then she had a second one back in 2003. Now she is on her third KitchenAid Hand Mixer.
Hi Cj Smart! The KitchenAid hand mixers are nice to use. I like that the beaters don't have a center post - it make them much easier to clean! Thanks for watching!
@@cavalcadeoffood I was gonna mention that the KitchenAid History were kinda similar to the Sunbeam that you mentioned. In 1919, KitchenAid introduced the VERY FIRST Stand Mixer. Then I think immediately after, KitchenAid added a Hand Mixer to their line of Small Appliances right after the stand mixer.
I have the yellow GE and then another GE I think from the 70s. It was new old stock. My mom had a GE stand mixer but used the mixer as a hand mixer. I'd love to have a 50s Kitchen Aid .
GE made the model 15 from 1956 until 1960. The began making it again around 1970 in then popular household colors and was usually found in discount stores.
Thank you for your efforts. I enjoy your segments thoroughly. The only mixer I have ever had is a hand me down from my great aunt. She purchased it in 1960 from Garrisons Hardware Store in Corning, Ohio. It is a GE model and still works perfectly. I keep it in the original box when not in use.
Hi Fred! I don't have any Osters in my collection - I'll have to keep an eye out for one! Glad you like the tours and hope you find some interest in Always Analog! Thanks!
My mom had the mixer you showed starting at 15:04 and it lasted for quite a long time but I seem to remember it had taken a tumble off the counter several times and toward the end had a broken case. I have the exact chrome Dormy mixer you showed. It was an Ebay purchase. When I got it the beaters tended to clink off each other as they didn't quite line up properly with each other. Apparently one of the beaters had jumped a tooth on the drive gear and I was able to take it apart and set it where it was supposed to be and lubricate the motor and drive gear while I had it apart. Now it's good to go for another 60+ years.
Hi tallboyyyy! So glad to hear that you gave that Dormy a tune up and have it running well again! Sometimes the old grease in these mixers hardens or gums up and needs to be cleaned out and replaced. Yes, yours is good for another half-century!! Thanks!
Howdy! We have the Sunbeam Junior in copper. It works great, and is used to make Chart House Blue Cheese Dressing. We have an original recipe card from the San Fransisco location. Our around the corner here in Palm Springs have the same recipe from a different location for the restaurant.
Hi Longhairbear! I know you are a big fan of Sunbeam! I don't know if I've ever seen a copper Junior, that's really cool! I remember the Chart House fondly. There was one in San Diego/LaJolla that I would go to when visiting friends who lived in the area. Thanks!
Very nice video and love those hand mixers. My late mother had I think a Sunbeam hand mixer (in white) but in I think the 90's had to replace and got another one where the beaters clipped to the side, forget who made it but it did the job nicely. She also had an old sunbeam mixmaster stand mixer from when she got married to my late father in 1954, it was the white/black model and she wore that old mixer out in the 70's and bought I believe a basic white new one that was not as good before getting the KitchenAid tilt head mixer. I forget who has it now (one of my 3 older sisters). I of course have the late 60's turquoise version of the Sunbeam in my home and have my late maternal grandmother's sunbeam hand mixer, originally in the box when I got it in the early 90's as once she was through with it, she'd clean it good and put it away in its box. If my mother was correct, it was purchased in 1969 but matched the version you show where you have it in pink and in white. I do use that one periodically when necessary. Anyway, fun to see these!
Hi John! Thanks for sharing your mixer stories! My parents also married in the early 50's and mom received the same Sunbeam Mixmaster for a wedding gift! That must have been a popular item at the time. She got a newer model in the late 70's, as I recall. Very cool to have your grandmother's mixer with the box!! Sounds like she took very good care of it!
@@cavalcadeoffood The color is incredible and I am always on the search for anything in the original box including candles galore. That is a great mixer.
I love your videos. Look at all those amazing mixers. I could probably come into your building and get lost in there for hours looking through your stuff. Avocado green is my favorite color. All my home furnishings are that color even down to the toilet and bathtub.!
Hi Jason! Nice to meet an avocado fan!! You even have it in the bathroom! That was a popular color! I don't have any large avocado appliances at the moment, but I have a number of small appliances in that color, as well as harvest gold and poppy. Seems like they made so many things in those colors so you could coordinate everything. Thanks!
Yes I’ve always loved avocado. I have made a few road trips to pick them up. My stove is probably my most prized possession. Along with my Maytag. 806 set. My stove is a Frigidaire twin 30 custom deluxe all in one double oven. I have the original paperwork with it also from 1972. I made a 3 1/2 hour one-way trip to get it. Which I know is nothing compared to A lot of other AW members. But it works great and we always have Thanksgiving at my house so it gets put to good use regularly. I also have an antique copper clad wood cookstove that I use every winter for heat/cooking. Most of the Thanksgiving dinner is cooked on it but the electric stove gets used also.
I absolutely love the countertops you put in your studio kitchen. I remember from a previous video I ask about them and I believe the color is called delightful Jayde. I believe Home Depot has it. But the closest Home Depot to me is an hour and a Half drive LOL. I live in Southern Iowa and in the middle of nowhere.
Those 3 GEs in the same style are great and I have the white one. The Westinghouse models... I never see them around. The Dormeys are powerful . It was definitely a time of great style compared to what is made today.
I have a couple of metal Westinghouse hand mixers with a concave, plastic handle. One is a green, and the other is pink. I’m guessing they’re from the 1950s. Great video!
I found your video to be incredibly interesting. I particularly liked your Sunbeam Junior hand held. I have an original Australian made Sunbeam Beater-Mix model 32371. Cast metal with black Bakelite handle. I just used it to make a chocolate cake. It's never been serviced nor has it ever needed to be repaired. It is totally original in every way. I've had it for years and it is my most favourite mixer. I also have a Sunbeam cafe series II stand mixer that I love very much. Who wouldn't love a stand mixer that can whip a minimum of just one egg white. Love Sunbeam, but I'm not a big fan of the more modern mixers. Great video. Cheers.
Have you run across an Oster Kitchen Center? The mixer head separates from the motor and it has a blender, food processor, food grinder as well as several other attachments? I have one of these and it has been its weight in gold.
love your channel...Our home is all mid century modern. I have the pink Vornado hand mixer. It has some wicked torque. I also have a house full of Vornado fans which are far and away the best fans ever made. You have a new sub!
Hi Donnybrook and welcome!! I don't have a Vornado mixer in the collection - will have to look for one. Those Vornado fans are so well designed - sounds like you have a nice collection of them! Thanks for subscribing!
Hi Kevin. I find it interesting that a lot of today's hand mixers are coming with a single balloon whisk attachment for whipping cream and beating egg whites and I question whether that's really necessary when the two standard beaters have worked fine for decades. I find a whisk tends to sling the egg whites a little more and it's all so flimsy and I'm actually working harder to hold the mixer up.
Hi Robert - I've notice the same thing and don't understand how the single whisk does a better job than two beaters. It may just be an inexpensive feature they could include to justify the higher cost of the mixer. Thanks!
My mom never used an electric mixer. My first mixer was a Sunbeam mixer. I needed to workksmarter not harder, I saved up and purchased a KitchenAid stand mixer. I now make cookie batter in six minutes. I love your collection of everything for the home especially the kitchen. Do you have all the attachments for the stand mixer?
Hi Barbara! Enjoy that KA mixer! You will find it will make a lot of your kitchen tasks much easier! I don't have many attachments. I find that I have other tools already for the jobs that the attachments would do. Thanks!
I worked as buyer in the sixties in a large dept. store in Small Appliances, People would actually bring back there not working mixers from the thirties and say they bought it last month, we had to take them back, and give them a new Sunbeam hand mixers believe it or not they still worked.
Fantastic video! Still have (and use) my mom's hand-held (non electric) mixer/whisk. Great for whipping cream! Also use her avacado green GE electric hand model. Would love to see a video on cake carriers or chafing dishes (of which I have just a few)! ;)
Hi MyMike509! Glad you enjoyed the video! Those manual mixers come in handy - I like to use them to scramble eggs. I was actually planning on a cake carrier video! I'll see about doing a chafing dish video in the future! Thanks so much - Happy New Year!
2:43 That a Sunbeam half hiding your left hand? Mum had one and I reckon it was a wedding present. They were married in 1949 and I reckon she still had and used it into the 21st century.
@@cavalcadeoffood Two days ago I picked up an "Elcon Food Mixer". The plate on the underside says "Email" which I think is an Australian offshoot of Westinghouse. It still has The Bakelite plug and it goes like a beaut. All cast allow with a Bakelite handle. I believe its 1949 - 51
Hi Kevin! I have a 1975 avocado green Sunbeam, but the beaters have rust on them. I have a motto that if I can't clean it, it can't be cleaned, but I cannot get that rust off! Do you know if the beaters are interchangable from year to year or brand to brand? Or if there is a way to get replacements? The mixer still works like a champ and I would hate to have to get a new one for the beaters. As always, I love your videos and appreciate your knowledge on all things vintage :)
Hi Elizabeth! That avocado Sunbeam sounds wonderful! Love the color! The beaters are NOT interchangeable between brands (Sunbeam, Hamilton Beach, GE, Westinghouse, etc. all had different beaters), but I think you'll find that the beaters from your mixer are identical to other Sunbeam mixers from that era. They didn't change the design of the beaters very often. I'm sure you could find a set online. Thanks!
Hi Kevin, I have a GE 3 speed hand mixer model 30M47 and it's just like the one you talk about here in the video. It was passed down from my mother in law and it still works beautifully, but it needs a new cord and I don't know where to get one from, any ideas? Loved the video, it was way cool.
Wonderful that you have your mother-in-law's mixer! All I can suggest is to look online for a replacement cord, or a used one in good condition. Maybe a search on Ebay. Thanks!
Picked up a 1953 Sunbeam Mixmaster Junior today. The date is stamped on the motor bearing plate inside. It runs fine, but smells like an old toy train set.
Hi Mike - funny how many of those old mixers have that smell! I think it's a combination of the old grease packed in the bearings and the sensation of an electrical current going through the motor after many years of non-use. Thanks!
So, today I found a Sunbeam Mixmaster hand mixer in Almond with Brown trim. My research tells me it is from the 80s. Were the 80s mixers as good as the previous decade's, or was this the time when appliances quality began to shift down towards today's disposable appliances?
Hi BrownSuga66! Yes, that Mixmaster would be from the mid-late 80's. These mixers were not as strong as previous generations and they had mostly plastic bodies instead of metal. I think you will find the mixers from the 50's and 60's to be better built. Thanks!
Today I got a 1960's avacado GE Jetsons hand mixer from Goodwill for $3. In decent shape, but no beaters though. That probably explains the low price and why it was still there. Hopefully I can find some compatible beaters without wasting too much time.
Hi Mike - I often see "orphan beaters" at thrift shops, etc. Those were pretty popular mixers, hopefully you'll come across a set of beaters for them. Thanks!
Hi Freedom Fighter - glad you enjoy the channel! I think I like the Sunbeam mixers from the 60's/70's the best. They aren't too heavy, but are strong enough to do most jobs decently. Thanks!
@@cavalcadeoffood I noticed you didn't have the sunbeam burst of power button on there. were they in the 70's? Thank you so much for the time and answering my ? If you sold these I would buy from you lol. I am trying to get all great appliances in my kitchen made from the great USA. My goal is anything you pick up in my kitchen will say from the USA. I will freak people out lmao and my 3 kids and there late 20's.one early 30s. I had children late starting at 30 to 34. But I remember some of the good old days and products.
@@cavalcadeoffood Thanks for the reply Kevin! I have been watching you and Ralph's episodes for years and have enjoyed every episode. Your electric range collection is awesome and it is fun to look at the background of your museum.
I wish I had known you years ago. I would have gotten you down to my area and took you to hardware store that started in 1938. Well they never sold everything they bought! It would just sit on the Shelf or it would be in Warehouse they never change the price on it. They had Electrolux they had mixers they had everything. And the biggest laugh I ever got was I went in there and then this was in I want to see 1994 and I found a 25 inch Zenith color TV with the manual tuner for for close to $800 for little over but that's back when color televisions were brand new it was like a 1968. My friend work with me in that was his parents store. His brother ran a air conditioning business out of it that was a good business but his mom and dad ran the store anyway and collect Social Security and they kept buying stuff and putting out this was even after Walmart no one bought from them. And his dad died and his mom just kept running the store she mostly netted at the store. She finally passed away sitting behind the cash register. his brother decided to go to business with another man. And instead of trying to get rid of all the stuff that they pushed all of it into a hole and buried the building. I think he could have been Rich if they had an auction. because there was stuff we're back from because there was stuff we're back from the 1938. All inboxes all with price tags never used. you would have been like a kid in a candy store I know he had an electric stove an electric dryer washer firm at least every year. well once again you put an extremely good video on take care Kevin and Ralph
Hi Beryl! Wow! What a story about that hardware store! I'm sure I would have gone crazy in there with all that old, original stock. Sounds like they didn't do much business! But I've noticed there are still stores like that in small towns where they don't turn over a lot of merchandise and I've seen price tags so old they are faded and you can't even see the price anymore! Well, I guess there a lot of buried treasures where that store once stood! Thanks so much!!
All in all over the years they used to a big business but they never want to run out of stock. And then came Walmart and they were retired. They just didn't want to give up. And nobody cared they just kept buying anyway! The family owned the local bank at that time. And he was a plumber and a roofer and his son ran an air conditioning business. And the mom always ran the store and she just wouldn't give up. If I ever find some pictures of it I'll see if I can get you some pictures of the store it had all the old light fixtures old ceiling fans it looked just about the way it did when it opened
Nice collection. Sorry for a redirection, this goes back to the electric skillet video, I mentioned that my mother had a Faberware, I believe, "buffet", I found a picture of it and would like to share it with you. My I please put in a stove request when you do the next exchange? Could you put the Frigidaire Sheer back in service?
Hi Andrew! I will rotate that Frigidaire sheer-look stove back in to the kitchen eventually, but I'm trying to use stoves that haven't yet been put in service first. I don't think you can attach a photo here in the comments. You can email me the photo: cavalcadevintage@gmail.com Thanks!
im 26 and we learned cursive on a chalkboard cause we grew up in a small town in ohio, its sad that its being torn down and whenever you have to write fast cursive is half and i write half the other in the same sentence haha
The best is missing: ABC-MIX (German, 60s). See it in long suffering tough hard action @MissMixyYT it's the best vintage handmixerASMR on TH-cam Say NO to China-cheap-plastic crap !
Those space-age general electric mixers are so cool
They really are a cool design! Thanks!
I love your passion for vintage kitchen appliances and accessories.
Thanks, Cindy! I guess when you start collecting things you really get into it - that's what happened to me with these appliances! Glad I can share the collection this way!
I love vintage appliances. A few months ago I thrifted a beautiful Sunbeam Mixmaster stand mixer in chrome. And it was only 11.00. Yesterday I thrifted a chrome Hamilton Beach Scoville hand mixer. This was only 2.99! They look so adorable displayed together. Cute chrome twins.
Hi BrownSuga66! I love your chrome twins!! Both are great mixers! Enjoy!
@@cavalcadeoffood I forgot to mention that both came with their proper beaters bowls and hooks and both work marvelously.
@@brownsuga6654 What great finds!!
Brothers from a different mother!
I just got my GE hand mixer at a second hand shop for $4.50. I love it!
You scored a major deal!! Enjoy it!! Thanks!
Hi Kev!!! What a perfect way to wake up in the morning with coffee and a vintage mixer tour! This was terrific and a great trip down memory lane! My Mom and Gram both had hand mixers when I was growing up but we never had a stand mixer. I can’t remember which type but from looking at the video I believe they were Hamilton Beach... I can remember when it was someone’s birthday and my mom mixing away in the kitchen and she would always have it plugged into her Westinghouse Terrace Top stove! Yup, I had one growing up! Not sure if I told you that? Forgive me if I did. It was sooooo awesome and makes me smile when I see the videos of yours! Moms was a specialty color from 1963 and it was a brown color but didn’t have the backsplash with the light as yours does. So cool how it just looks built in. She would always use the socket on it to plug in her hand mixer... just the sound of that oven door opening makes me smile! Thanks for all the memories Kevin! Can’t wait to someday visit you boys at Cavalcade! 🥰 stay safe!!!
Jeff xo
Hi Jeff! Wow you grew up with a Terrace Top! I know the model you are referring to and I have one in the collection that is a gold color. Someday it will make it's way into the kitchen studio! The one I have at the house with the lighted backsplash is from 1963. Many people didn't have stand mixers. They either didn't need one or didn't have room for one. A good hand mixer could do a lot of the regular mixing jobs. Glad you liked the video!! Stay well and strong!!!
Those early metal hand mixers were a workout! This is one place that plastics were a godsend...
Hi LoveIsAll - they sure were heavy for their size! The plastic ones were much lighter. Thanks!
Very nice collection! I'm impressed that these mixers from about 80 years ago still work well. If only stuff made in the current era would hold up as well. I'm so frustrated with all the obsolete junk from most manufacturers these days that breaks or wears out very quickly.
Hi xtafpfhr! Thank you - many of these older appliances were very well made and designed to last for years of service, and be repaired if needed. It's too bad they don't make things that way now. Thanks for watching!
Yep. Never ever never buy MADE IN CHINA it's cheap plastic crap that breaks in months !
I have a few 'hand' and or 'stand' Hamilton Beach mixers that work great and are from the 1930's and late 1920's They were stand mixers, not real big, but you could life the mixer off of the stand and use it as a hand held portable mixer.

That was great! Now the stand mixers yea!
Hi Jeff! Glad you enjoyed the video! I'll try to do one on stand mixers soon. Thanks!
You bring up so many memories of times past. I often we could go back to those days. I think they were much happier times.
Hi Cindy! Those were fun times! Glad it brings back memories for you! Thanks!
We had a white version of the George Jetson GE hand mixer. It also had a hole in the front grill you could attach a knife sharpener to it. You would take the mixer blades off and set the mixer on the table. I remember it had little rubber bars on the bottom that allowed it to rest flat on the table. He would then turn it on high and the Grindstone would turn and you can sharpen your knives.
Hi Shahrdad - thanks for sharing that memory. I'm still looking for one of those knife sharpener attachments - I'd love to try it out. Thanks!
@@cavalcadeoffood the mixer should have a dime size hole in the front for the sharper to go into. It has just a friction connection.
@@cavalcadeoffood Kitchen Aid made knife sharpeners from back in the day. The old original ones are rather hard to fine.
Thank you Kevin for the great teaching and showing us your wonderful collections! Until I watched your videos, I was unaware that vintage electric appliances are still very much available. So I bought a vintage toaster and two electric frying pans! By the way, the GE refrigerator in your kitchen is the exact same my parents had in our kitchen as I was growing up. By the way, I do miss watching you guys in the cottage!
Hi Lucy! Wonderful that you found a vintage toaster and electric skillets! Enjoy them! Most of the older small appliances were very well built and will last a long time! I think that GE fridge in the kitchen is a 1949 model - and it still works well! The cottage was fun, but I'm glad to have a place to use November-May. Thanks so much!
Love your collection! My mom had an old GE. She used it until she stopped cooking in the early 2000s. I remember that sound and it always meant something good was in progress. Thanks for sharing.
Hi John! Glad the collection brought back some memories! Those GE mixers were very popular. Thanks so much!
Appliance heaven ! I love your little red table and chairs. And your videos too of course.
Thanks so much, kfl611!
This is one of the best channels I have found for old kitchen appliances. You can never fail to shine the light on how things used to be before the disposable tech age. The recipes are great too.
I only have a few kitchen appliances. I prefer the mixers most so far. I collect vacuums (mainly vintage Electroluxes), as well. (And typewriters, although that collection is paused for now since I have no space for any more of them.)
Anyways,
1968 Sunbeam Mixmaster Stand Mixer MMB---Chrome, steel bowls, no dough hooks as standard. 175 watts. The base, handle front, juicer pin, portable switch, and bottom frame all metal. Most inner components and gears are all metal.
Heavy, better for keeping stuff down like choco-chips in cookie batter. 12 Speeds. Bakelite platter.
1974 Sunbeam Mixmaster Stand Mixer model MMA---White, clear glass bowls, dough hooks as standard. 200 watts. The handle front, juicer pin, portable switch, and bottom frame are all metal. 12 speeds.
Most inner components are metal, yet less than the former one. Heavy yet lighter than the former. It's a tradeoff.
198X Hamilton Beach Scoville Hand mixer model 97-1. (Unknown power level) Brown and tan. Beaters only as standard. Very good for whipping, the beaters spin very fast. Also, all plastic. The inner gears are metal though, as well as the bushings. Very light.
1976-68 Oster Osterizer Imperial Dual-Cycle Pulse*Matic 16. (Unknown power level). Avocado and chrome. Glass jar with removable bottom blade assembly (made of bakelite). It cycles on and off when set to the cycling mode. Very heavy. 8 speeds. Very quiet.
My grandmother has a Mixmaster, and the parents have a Kitchenaid.
Hi Richard! Glad you enjoy the videos. Looks like you have a nice collection of vintage appliances, and a couple of really good Sunbeam Mixmasters. When we start getting to around 1980 you see more and more plastic parts and designs that were not intended to last a long time and people would throw away and buy new every few years. When they started making more products outside of the US, weight became an issue because things had to be shipped a long distance, so things got even lighter and thinner. Enjoy your well-made vintage appliances!
My Sunbeam is still in the (somewhat battered) box from 1998. I bought it new when I purchased my co-op apartment. It still works great and is pretty heavy. I don't have room for a stand mixer. In fact my apartment is so small that when I want to bake I have to take out all of the pots and pans I store inside the stove. I think I paid $19 for it, I remember buying all of my small appliances at Woolworths. I bought a Proctor Silex coffee maker ( now on my second one), an Oster blender (glass not plastic), a Toast Master 2 slice toaster and none of them cost over $20. This was in 1998. It might have been the year that Woolworths went out of business.
That Sunbeam mixer should last you a long time! How I miss Woolworths! Sounds like you got some good deals on small appliances there. Thanks!
I grew up shopping at Woolworths and was so sad when they went out of business and their stores became shoe stores. Sitting at the lunch counter and have an ice cream float of banana split was always such a treat. I remember sometimes they would have balloons and you would pop one, and behind the balloon would be the price you had to pay for your banana split. Those days are long gone.
Hi Kevin A few dates The Sunbeam Mixmaster Junior came out in white in 1952, Colors in 1955 The yellow Sunbeam HM is about 1960-62, Hamilton Beach Mixettes like the first one came out in 48, With the Model G stand mixer, and yes Hamilton Beach did make many Sears mixers starting in 1958 after Birtman sold out to Whirlpool and spun the mixers off to HB Before that Birtman made their vacuums and mixers and blenders,
Hi Hans!! I knew you would know this information!! Thanks so much, and as you can see I still use that Westinghouse mixer you sent me! I thought the later Sears mixers were HB, so thanks for confirming that. Hope all is well with you!!
@@cavalcadeoffood Same as everybody getting by and being careful, if this mess ever goes away we want to come see the museum!
Hi Kevin and Ralph! Thanks for another great video! I love your Vintage Tours. Hand held mixers bring back a lot of memories. :) Love the cursive handwriting too! Have a great day. :)
Thanks, Going Slightly Mad! Glad you like the vintage tours...we will have more coming in the months ahead!
Wow, I still have and use the gold color GE hand mixer you displayed! I believe I received it as a wedding gift in 1978! Still works good as new, never had a need to buy a stand mixer.
Hi Carole! I love that you are still using that mixer! Tells you how well it was made. Thanks!
Cavalcade of Food Love your videos. My husband is a Polish/Irish Michigander raised in a Dearborn Hts. He has siblings and oodles of cousins still living in Michigan
Cavalcade of Food your cottage kitchen is so much like my in-laws was. Next time we visit Michigan, we’ll have to take a road trip to Croswell to window shop your museum!
I have the same one in "Harvest Gold", my sister got it for a wedding present in 1979. The marriage ended after 10 years, but the mixer is going strong for 40 years.
Love those hand mixers
Thanks, Kim!
I picked up an unopened pink 1960's General Eletric Hand Mixer at the thrift store.. Never used love it...
Hi Calista! Wow! How cool - that's a good mixer you found!
Good collection! Please, don't forget to talk about your fridges.
Hi Gilberto! Ok, I'll try to remember about the fridges. I don't have that many - maybe six or seven. Thanks!
😃 Yay! I was waiting for another appliance video! Now I know much more about hand held mixers than I did yesterday! 😉 😉 Who says you don’t learn something new everyday? I can’t wait until you bring a new antique range into the studio kitchen! Thanks for another great video!
Hi Grace Love88! Glad you liked the video and got to know hand mixers better!! We will try to keep them coming! Thanks!
I still have the sears avocado green hand mixer works perfect from 1976.
Hi Jerome - that's a good mixer you have there, likely made by Hamilton Beach. Thanks!
My grandmother had her first KitchenAid Hand Mixer back in 1993.
Then she had a second one back in 2003.
Now she is on her third KitchenAid Hand Mixer.
I have the first Kitchen Aid 1919 and regularly use a 1937 model
Hi Cj Smart! The KitchenAid hand mixers are nice to use. I like that the beaters don't have a center post - it make them much easier to clean! Thanks for watching!
Hans - I remember that early KA mixer that you brought up to the wash in a few years ago...worked beautifully and so much power!
@@cavalcadeoffood that was a 1914 Hobart C10
@@cavalcadeoffood I was gonna mention that the KitchenAid History were kinda similar to the Sunbeam that you mentioned.
In 1919, KitchenAid introduced the VERY FIRST Stand Mixer. Then I think immediately after, KitchenAid added a Hand Mixer to their line of Small Appliances right after the stand mixer.
I have the yellow GE and then another GE I think from the 70s. It was new old stock. My mom had a GE stand mixer but used the mixer as a hand mixer. I'd love to have a 50s Kitchen Aid .
Hi Tim! Thanks for sharing - those old Kitchen Aid mixers are good machines but hard to find. Thanks!
GE made the model 15 from 1956 until 1960. The began making it again around 1970 in then popular household colors and was usually found in discount stores.
Thank you for your efforts. I enjoy your segments thoroughly. The only mixer I have ever had is a hand me down from my great aunt. She purchased it in 1960 from Garrisons Hardware Store in Corning, Ohio. It is a GE model and still works perfectly. I keep it in the original box when not in use.
Hi Martha - it's wonderful that you have your great aunt's mixer and use it! Glad you enjoy the episodes! Thanks for watching!
My mother had an Oster. I enjoy tours of the collection. I will check out you other channel.
Hi Fred! I don't have any Osters in my collection - I'll have to keep an eye out for one! Glad you like the tours and hope you find some interest in Always Analog! Thanks!
My mom had the mixer you showed starting at 15:04 and it lasted for quite a long time but I seem to remember it had taken a tumble off the counter several times and toward the end had a broken case. I have the exact chrome Dormy mixer you showed. It was an Ebay purchase. When I got it the beaters tended to clink off each other as they didn't quite line up properly with each other. Apparently one of the beaters had jumped a tooth on the drive gear and I was able to take it apart and set it where it was supposed to be and lubricate the motor and drive gear while I had it apart. Now it's good to go for another 60+ years.
Hi tallboyyyy! So glad to hear that you gave that Dormy a tune up and have it running well again! Sometimes the old grease in these mixers hardens or gums up and needs to be cleaned out and replaced. Yes, yours is good for another half-century!! Thanks!
They sure do not make anything like they used to.
Kevin, that Sears Super Five is in fact a Hamilton Beach; it should have the 400 prefix on the model number. Excellent video as always! Tony
Thanks, Tony! From the beaters it looked like a HB to me - thanks for confirming!
Howdy! We have the Sunbeam Junior in copper. It works great, and is used to make Chart House Blue Cheese Dressing. We have an original recipe card from the San Fransisco location. Our around the corner here in Palm Springs have the same recipe from a different location for the restaurant.
Hi Longhairbear! I know you are a big fan of Sunbeam! I don't know if I've ever seen a copper Junior, that's really cool! I remember the Chart House fondly. There was one in San Diego/LaJolla that I would go to when visiting friends who lived in the area. Thanks!
We were lucky we had a kitchen
Very nice video and love those hand mixers. My late mother had I think a Sunbeam hand mixer (in white) but in I think the 90's had to replace and got another one where the beaters clipped to the side, forget who made it but it did the job nicely. She also had an old sunbeam mixmaster stand mixer from when she got married to my late father in 1954, it was the white/black model and she wore that old mixer out in the 70's and bought I believe a basic white new one that was not as good before getting the KitchenAid tilt head mixer. I forget who has it now (one of my 3 older sisters). I of course have the late 60's turquoise version of the Sunbeam in my home and have my late maternal grandmother's sunbeam hand mixer, originally in the box when I got it in the early 90's as once she was through with it, she'd clean it good and put it away in its box. If my mother was correct, it was purchased in 1969 but matched the version you show where you have it in pink and in white. I do use that one periodically when necessary.
Anyway, fun to see these!
Hi John! Thanks for sharing your mixer stories! My parents also married in the early 50's and mom received the same Sunbeam Mixmaster for a wedding gift! That must have been a popular item at the time. She got a newer model in the late 70's, as I recall. Very cool to have your grandmother's mixer with the box!! Sounds like she took very good care of it!
Works of art.
Thanks, James!
Oh wow, the Sears mixer is really something, in the box and all. My favorite.
Isn't the color of that Sears mixer amazing? Always nice to find things in their original box - thanks!
@@cavalcadeoffood The color is incredible and I am always on the search for anything in the original box including candles galore. That is a great mixer.
I had a harvest gold Farberware hand mixer. It was a wedding gift in 1973.
Hi Monica - hang on to it! That's a good one!
Very cool!!! Thank you Kevin!
You're so welcome, Sharon! Thanks for watching!
I love your videos. Look at all those amazing mixers. I could probably come into your building and get lost in there for hours looking through your stuff. Avocado green is my favorite color. All my home furnishings are that color even down to the toilet and bathtub.!
Hi Jason! Nice to meet an avocado fan!! You even have it in the bathroom! That was a popular color! I don't have any large avocado appliances at the moment, but I have a number of small appliances in that color, as well as harvest gold and poppy. Seems like they made so many things in those colors so you could coordinate everything. Thanks!
Yes I’ve always loved avocado. I have made a few road trips to pick them up. My stove is probably my most prized possession. Along with my Maytag. 806 set. My stove is a Frigidaire twin 30 custom deluxe all in one double oven. I have the original paperwork with it also from 1972. I made a 3 1/2 hour one-way trip to get it. Which I know is nothing compared to A lot of other AW members. But it works great and we always have Thanksgiving at my house so it gets put to good use regularly. I also have an antique copper clad wood cookstove that I use every winter for heat/cooking. Most of the Thanksgiving dinner is cooked on it but the electric stove gets used also.
I absolutely love the countertops you put in your studio kitchen. I remember from a previous video I ask about them and I believe the color is called delightful Jayde. I believe Home Depot has it. But the closest Home Depot to me is an hour and a Half drive LOL. I live in Southern Iowa and in the middle of nowhere.
I KNOW !!! I want to move into his store and live there, among all the great appliances.
Those 3 GEs in the same style are great and I have the white one. The Westinghouse models... I never see them around. The Dormeys are powerful . It was definitely a time of great style compared to what is made today.
Few new mixers will stand the test of time like these older ones have done. Yes, some of them really have some power. Thanks!
I have two of the GE hand mixers. One white and one avocado. They work great.
Those are very well-made mixers - great that you have two of them! Thanks!
So fun! Thanks!
You're welcome, Lady Thyme!
Thanks for mentioning Always Analog, we found it! Thank you for this mixer collection video - lovely!
Hi Sarah! Glad you found Always Analog and liked the vintage mixer tour! Thanks for watching!
glad i got too watch this great as always GE MADE GOOD ONES
Hi Gary - those GE mixers were very good and popular, too! Thanks!
I LIKE THE WESTINGHOUSE ONES YOU HAVE COOL STUFF
Thanks, Gary!
I have a couple of metal Westinghouse hand mixers with a concave, plastic handle. One is a green, and the other is pink. I’m guessing they’re from the 1950s. Great video!
Thanks, Samuel!
I found your video to be incredibly interesting. I particularly liked your Sunbeam Junior hand held. I have an original Australian made Sunbeam Beater-Mix model 32371. Cast metal with black Bakelite handle. I just used it to make a chocolate cake. It's never been serviced nor has it ever needed to be repaired. It is totally original in every way. I've had it for years and it is my most favourite mixer. I also have a Sunbeam cafe series II stand mixer that I love very much. Who wouldn't love a stand mixer that can whip a minimum of just one egg white. Love Sunbeam, but I'm not a big fan of the more modern mixers. Great video. Cheers.
Thanks, SirDilbere! Glad to know you are using and enjoying your vintage Sunbeam mixer. Yes, they were built to last! Thanks for watching!
Have you run across an Oster Kitchen Center? The mixer head separates from the motor and it has a blender, food processor, food grinder as well as several other attachments? I have one of these and it has been its weight in gold.
Had a friend by one of those decades ago. Took some saving, but she still had it last time I looked.
Hi Kevin I love the portable hand held mixers. I do have a dormy which was made by dormeyer .I do have my moms dormeyer stand mixer
Thanks - sounds like you have a couple of nice Dormeyers!
@@cavalcadeoffood yes they do a great job in mixing and beating
80 + year old mixers wow
love your channel...Our home is all mid century modern. I have the pink Vornado hand mixer. It has some wicked torque. I also have a house full of Vornado fans which are far and away the best fans ever made. You have a new sub!
Hi Donnybrook and welcome!! I don't have a Vornado mixer in the collection - will have to look for one. Those Vornado fans are so well designed - sounds like you have a nice collection of them! Thanks for subscribing!
Had a white dromyer mixer! Grandpa made one from two of them.
Hi Stacey! Sounds like your grandpa was good with machines! Those Dormeyer mixers did a nice job! Thanks!
Hi Kevin. I find it interesting that a lot of today's hand mixers are coming with a single balloon whisk attachment for whipping cream and beating egg whites and I question whether that's really necessary when the two standard beaters have worked fine for decades. I find a whisk tends to sling the egg whites a little more and it's all so flimsy and I'm actually working harder to hold the mixer up.
Hi Robert - I've notice the same thing and don't understand how the single whisk does a better job than two beaters. It may just be an inexpensive feature they could include to justify the higher cost of the mixer. Thanks!
My mom never used an electric mixer. My first mixer was a Sunbeam mixer. I needed to workksmarter not harder, I saved up and purchased a KitchenAid stand mixer. I now make cookie batter in six minutes. I love your collection of everything for the home especially the kitchen. Do you have all the attachments for the stand mixer?
Hi Barbara! Enjoy that KA mixer! You will find it will make a lot of your kitchen tasks much easier! I don't have many attachments. I find that I have other tools already for the jobs that the attachments would do. Thanks!
I worked as buyer in the sixties in a large dept. store in Small Appliances, People would actually bring back there not working mixers from the thirties and say they bought it last month, we had to take them back, and give them a new Sunbeam hand mixers believe it or not they still worked.
Hi Kitt! Sounds like the store had a pretty open return policy!! Thanks for watching!
Fantastic video! Still have (and use) my mom's hand-held (non electric) mixer/whisk. Great for whipping cream! Also use her avacado green GE electric hand model. Would love to see a video on cake carriers or chafing dishes (of which I have just a few)! ;)
Hi MyMike509! Glad you enjoyed the video! Those manual mixers come in handy - I like to use them to scramble eggs. I was actually planning on a cake carrier video! I'll see about doing a chafing dish video in the future! Thanks so much - Happy New Year!
2:43 That a Sunbeam half hiding your left hand? Mum had one and I reckon it was a wedding present. They were married in 1949 and I reckon she still had and used it into the 21st century.
Hi Maurice. Yes, that is a Sunbeam Junior and they made these for a few years from the late 40's into the early 50's. Thanks!
@@cavalcadeoffood
Two days ago I picked up an "Elcon Food Mixer". The plate on the underside says "Email" which I think is an Australian offshoot of Westinghouse. It still has The Bakelite plug and it goes like a beaut. All cast allow with a Bakelite handle.
I believe its 1949 - 51
Hi Kevin! I have a 1975 avocado green Sunbeam, but the beaters have rust on them. I have a motto that if I can't clean it, it can't be cleaned, but I cannot get that rust off! Do you know if the beaters are interchangable from year to year or brand to brand? Or if there is a way to get replacements? The mixer still works like a champ and I would hate to have to get a new one for the beaters. As always, I love your videos and appreciate your knowledge on all things vintage :)
Hi Elizabeth! That avocado Sunbeam sounds wonderful! Love the color! The beaters are NOT interchangeable between brands (Sunbeam, Hamilton Beach, GE, Westinghouse, etc. all had different beaters), but I think you'll find that the beaters from your mixer are identical to other Sunbeam mixers from that era. They didn't change the design of the beaters very often. I'm sure you could find a set online. Thanks!
Nice 😀
Glad you like the mixers, Michael! Thanks!
@@cavalcadeoffood Welcome 😀, I love old stuff.
Hi Kevin, I have a GE 3 speed hand mixer model 30M47 and it's just like the one you talk about here in the video. It was passed down from my mother in law and it still works beautifully, but it needs a new cord and I don't know where to get one from, any ideas? Loved the video, it was way cool.
Wonderful that you have your mother-in-law's mixer! All I can suggest is to look online for a replacement cord, or a used one in good condition. Maybe a search on Ebay. Thanks!
Picked up a 1953 Sunbeam Mixmaster Junior today. The date is stamped on the motor bearing plate inside. It runs fine, but smells like an old toy train set.
Hi Mike - funny how many of those old mixers have that smell! I think it's a combination of the old grease packed in the bearings and the sensation of an electrical current going through the motor after many years of non-use. Thanks!
So, today I found a Sunbeam Mixmaster hand mixer in Almond with Brown trim. My research tells me it is from the 80s. Were the 80s mixers as good as the previous decade's, or was this the time when appliances quality began to shift down towards today's disposable appliances?
Hi BrownSuga66! Yes, that Mixmaster would be from the mid-late 80's. These mixers were not as strong as previous generations and they had mostly plastic bodies instead of metal. I think you will find the mixers from the 50's and 60's to be better built. Thanks!
Today I got a 1960's avacado GE Jetsons hand mixer from Goodwill for $3. In decent shape, but no beaters though. That probably explains the low price and why it was still there. Hopefully I can find some compatible beaters without wasting too much time.
Hi Mike - I often see "orphan beaters" at thrift shops, etc. Those were pretty popular mixers, hopefully you'll come across a set of beaters for them. Thanks!
Kevin you have some 85 year old mixers, We had Osters.
Kitt - and they all still work! It shows how well built these appliances were. Thanks so much!
Out of all the vintage hand mixers, which one do you like the best? or works the best? I am new to your channel and love it.
Hi Freedom Fighter - glad you enjoy the channel! I think I like the Sunbeam mixers from the 60's/70's the best. They aren't too heavy, but are strong enough to do most jobs decently. Thanks!
@@cavalcadeoffood I noticed you didn't have the sunbeam burst of power button on there. were they in the 70's? Thank you so much for the time and answering my ? If you sold these I would buy from you lol. I am trying to get all great appliances in my kitchen made from the great USA. My goal is anything you pick up in my kitchen will say from the USA. I will freak people out lmao and my 3 kids and there late 20's.one early 30s. I had children late starting at 30 to 34. But I remember some of the good old days and products.
I had a turquoise one GE!
Great color! Thanks!
Hand mixers were supposed to be under 3 lbs in weight so that the user would not tire in holding. they are great for quick every day mixing tasks .
Hi Russ! I'll have to weigh a few of these, because I thinks some of them tip the scales - they feel every bit of 3lbs! Thanks for watching!
@@cavalcadeoffood Thanks for the reply Kevin! I have been watching you and Ralph's episodes for years and have enjoyed every episode. Your electric range collection is awesome and it is fun to look at the background of your museum.
I wish I had known you years ago. I would have gotten you down to my area and took you to hardware store that started in 1938. Well they never sold everything they bought! It would just sit on the Shelf or it would be in Warehouse they never change the price on it. They had Electrolux they had mixers they had everything. And the biggest laugh I ever got was I went in there and then this was in I want to see 1994 and I found a 25 inch Zenith color TV with the manual tuner for for close to $800 for little over but that's back when color televisions were brand new it was like a 1968. My friend work with me in that was his parents store. His brother ran a air conditioning business out of it that was a good business but his mom and dad ran the store anyway and collect Social Security and they kept buying stuff and putting out this was even after Walmart no one bought from them. And his dad died and his mom just kept running the store she mostly netted at the store. She finally passed away sitting behind the cash register. his brother decided to go to business with another man. And instead of trying to get rid of all the stuff that they pushed all of it into a hole and buried the building. I think he could have been Rich if they had an auction. because there was stuff we're back from because there was stuff we're back from the 1938. All inboxes all with price tags never used. you would have been like a kid in a candy store I know he had an electric stove an electric dryer washer firm at least every year. well once again you put an extremely good video on take care Kevin and Ralph
Hi Beryl! Wow! What a story about that hardware store! I'm sure I would have gone crazy in there with all that old, original stock. Sounds like they didn't do much business! But I've noticed there are still stores like that in small towns where they don't turn over a lot of merchandise and I've seen price tags so old they are faded and you can't even see the price anymore! Well, I guess there a lot of buried treasures where that store once stood! Thanks so much!!
All in all over the years they used to a big business but they never want to run out of stock. And then came Walmart and they were retired. They just didn't want to give up. And nobody cared they just kept buying anyway! The family owned the local bank at that time. And he was a plumber and a roofer and his son ran an air conditioning business. And the mom always ran the store and she just wouldn't give up. If I ever find some pictures of it I'll see if I can get you some pictures of the store it had all the old light fixtures old ceiling fans it looked just about the way it did when it opened
We had sunbeam and hamilton beach
Both good mixers, Earl! Thanks!
I have one of those GE mixers. Those three you displayed are the model 30M47 "Atomic" model from the 1950s.
Thanks, Mark! What a great design that mixer has - totally space age! Hope all is well!
The M 47 debuted in 1960 GE made the first portable mixer having a mostly plastic body
HI Kevin I have a white metal sunbeam mixmaster junior electric hand mixer and I also have a sunbeam t20c toaster are these good appliances
Hi JC! Your Sunbeam mixer and toaster are well made appliances! Glad to know you use and enjoy them! Thanks so much! Happy New Year!
Nice found a NOS in the box with all the paperwork sunbeam hand mixer from the 1950s looks like a bullet
Hi RugbyFootballer - that is a great looking Sunbeam and those were very good mixers. Enjoy!
Nice collection. Sorry for a redirection, this goes back to the electric skillet video, I mentioned that my mother had a Faberware, I believe, "buffet", I found a picture of it and would like to share it with you.
My I please put in a stove request when you do the next exchange? Could you put the Frigidaire Sheer back in service?
I dont produce videos. How can I the picture to you.
Hi Andrew! I will rotate that Frigidaire sheer-look stove back in to the kitchen eventually, but I'm trying to use stoves that haven't yet been put in service first.
I don't think you can attach a photo here in the comments. You can email me the photo: cavalcadevintage@gmail.com Thanks!
Seem like the sunbeams were more powerful than the Westinghouse mixers
The Sunbeam Mixmaster had a good motor - nice range of power.
You should do another episode of coffee makers
Hi Earl - yes, we will need to do more than one episode! I've got so many coffee makers of different types. Thanks!
Where o you guys find all of these
Hi Ed - garage sales, rummage sales, flea markets - places like that.
Hamilton Beach made all of Sears' mixers and blenders.
Thanks, James! I wasn't sure if they just made the mixers or other things for Sears.
im 26 and we learned cursive on a chalkboard cause we grew up in a small town in ohio, its sad that its being torn down and whenever you have to write fast cursive is half and i write half the other in the same sentence haha
Thanks! I'm glad you learned cursive in school - many schools have stopped teaching cursive.
I have one!

I GOT A FEW FROM THE 70S
There were a lot of good mixers available in the 70's - thanks for watching!

I will do a video about stand mixers in the future. Those are much heavier and will take me a while to get down off the shelves! Thanks!
@@cavalcadeoffood Yeah! Now that I recently bought my own first KitchenAid, already I know how heavy stand mixers are lol!

None of your samples are governor-controlled models
Thanks for the good information, Russ!
My Mom got a Sunbeam portable in around 1972 that DID use a governor to control the speed. That thing could mix heavy doughs easily. . .
Yes Sunbeam, GE, Hamilton Beach & Toastmaster made governor controlled portables--there were 10, 12. & 14 speed models beginning around 1968@@davidroyer5049
