1940's Hotpoint Electric Stove and 1950's GE refrigerator

Here I demonstrate some of the vintage appliances in my kitchen. The Hotpoint range is a 40" electric model with dual ovens and pushbutton controls. The buttons light up different colors depending on the temperature you select or the oven function (red for broil, yellow for timed and green for bake). The refrigerator I think is from 1952 and features a separate freezer compartment. Both are in daily use and good working condition.

Vintage appliances had much more style! Today's appliances all look the same.

Old manual defrost fridges can actually be very efficient, as long as the door seals are good. Plus they are nice and quiet.

The fridge looks red in the video

Why did somebody paint the refrigerator that ugly brown color? They should have repainted it white.

I reckon that stove will last 10x longer than any new stove, computerized, or not! Same with that old refrigerator KEEP USING IT and upset the greenies! The worst that can really happen is a stuffed relay, which sadly happened to our 62 freezer there is a video of that on my channel

Nice stove. Built like a battleship. The dual oven feature must be nice. I would prefer a gas stove though.
