    "it makes him happy, so it makes me happy" thats a healthy relationship. i agree about the washing machines. the current ones hardly use any water & hardly move. the up & down agitators of yesteryear would seem to be more successful at cleaning. its like when i wash something stained by hand...you rub & rub to get the stain out similar to the agitator. & the detergents back then were made stronger & my grandmother swears the laundry came out whiter & smelled fresher. she used a clothesline outside & let the sun dry & bleach the whites & it had the smell of fresh air & sunshine on all your clothes. i would have liked that.

    I was obsessed with washing machines when I was little. My Grandma had a 1957 or '58 Lady Kenmore. A stainless steel tub with the purple light, had only the sound that L.K. makes, and filling it up made my heart beat faster. My Grandad took me to the laundromat every once to a while to see the machines. I still love the smell of bleach and laundry detergent...

      Areana Sanchez I am 52 and still use my mom's Kitchen Aid mixer that she gave me when I was 28. She had it for about 20 years and made lots of bread with it. I think appliances today are made with a lot of plastic parts that wear out quickly. Oh and my 20 year old daughter wants me to gift my mixer to her when she moves in to her new place. LOL!

Washers are particularly interesting to me not only because of what they do, but how they do it. The mechanics involved alone along with the styles, colors and various cycles they all handle, make them just so curious to me. You guys really have a fine collection there of not only washers, but also all of the other appliances I noticed. Good luck with all of them and it is so wonderful to see folks like you two who are interested in preserving a lot of pieces of the past! Thank you for sharing all of this!

      The larger top loading Ropers work pretty well. I have found the larger capacity machines tend to be built a little better.

      @@thewatcherlollol Why not use the word immaculate?
      That's the word I chose because the guys home appears exceptionally clean to me. Why ask such a ridiculous question?
      Now we have commenters critiqueing other commenters word choices? How childish.
      Just enjoy the videos and stop being so petty!

    Those guys are so cute. And I totally understand their obsession with vintage appliances, those were built to last, very high quality, not like the made in China modern junk.

    I would much rather have a neighbor that collects washing machines than one that puts dead animal's heads on their wall. They aren't hurting any living creature so bless them and their hobby.

    These guys are too cute and enjoyable to watch as they highlight their collection. How great that they found each other. It would be tough to find someone who shares this niche interest.

    Older washing machines are built better than most of the newer washers, actually use water (high efficiency machines don't use enough water), and look cooler than the new stuff. The same can be said with older appliances and electronics. My favorite appliance color is avocado green (even better with a little faux wood grain)
