I think they'll still be around, but as things get rarer and we move forward through time, the getting gets difficult. After all, there is no replenishment of these items, and there is a constant flow of them to the krusher. And yes, it's always interesting to see whether a machine is a keeper or whether it's a flash in the pan. We've had quite a few machines that were fun for a while, but lost their novelty. And then, sometimes you'll find some that hold your attention forever (like Frigidaires do for me). Sometimes the circumstances make the difference--if it's your first one, it may be special to you. I still have my first machine--my Frigidaire 1-18 model WC. It's not an unusual machine, but it was my first :-) (Kind of like how your first car could be a total piece, but you still have an affection for it, because it's your first car, and you'll compare all the subsequent cars you ever own to it :-) ) In any case, best of luck, and I hope you get a Filter-Flo as your first addtion to your collection, when you have your own space :-) |
