This site features all things retro for the home.

Major appliances from decades past, starting with the striking pink, furiously agitating 1958 Frigidaire Custom Imperial Automatic Washer on the homepage.

Tons of features, including "Owners' Manuals, Vintage Consumer Articles, Vintage Appliance Videos and Audio," and a discussion forum called Applianceville for information exchange, technical advice, parts, availability of classic machines, and related topics.

FunFacts from the site:

The colors of the 50s and 60s were pink, yellow, turquoise, charcoal gray, and sea foam green.

The mid-60s and 70s featured harvest gold, copper tone, and avocado green.

"Stainless steel is the harvest gold of the 00s; in 15 years, such appliances will look soooo dated."
