Here is my washer and dryer. They are 1963 Lady Kenmore(50 years). As you can see they are in turquoise. Both work great. Have had to replace the pump and a valve in the washer.


My everyday fridge is a 1949 Hotpoint. Had to put a new gasket on it, as well as rewire it. Ended up having it repainted. It was originally white. Works great, and has the second door for the freezer. Haven't checked to see how much energy it uses.


As far as tv's, I only have 2 flat screens. One is in a cabinet in the kitchen. My partner likes to watch tv while he cooks. The second one is hanging on the wall under the backyard patio. It is a 42" and has been out there for 3 years now. No issues yet(knock on wood). It does good with the extreme heat here in Arizona.
I have other vintage appliances as well. A 1941 O'keefe and Merrit gas stove, 1955 Hotpoint dishwasher(only appliance that currently doesn't work), 1963 Hotpoint refrigerator in turquoise(used as a secondary fridge) and a mid 60's G.E. Americana fridge in coppertone brown. That is under the back patio used for soda, beer, and other drinks.
I remember we had a "Lady Kenmore" drier like that one but it was made in 1966.
