I hope I got these scanned ok. I also hope the powers that be don't hit me with the 'zot' button for the number of scans. I wasn't sure how else to do this but am open to suggestions. This manual is neat. Lubing info, recipes, and HOLY COW, I had NO idea there were so many attachments for this mixer. Puts the KitchenAid to shame! Does anybody actually HAVE any of the attachments? I'd love to see pictures! Anyway, here goes! RCD | ||

All those attachments...
I think it's a sign of the times that this mixer - and other products - came with so many attachments. My old Kirby vacuum also comes with a number of attachments. I'm thinking the trend was such for several reasons: good quality electric motors at the time were expensive and hard to come by. Also, the company could increase sales and profits by offering the customer these various attachments, many of which were not available as stand alone products. Nowadays, of course, nearly all those attachment functions can be obtained with stand-alone products that take up not much more space than the Sunbeam attachments must have taken. My Kitchenaid mixer has an optional attachment I didn't see with the Sunbeam: a grain mill. I may be using it to make brown and white rice flours for wheat gluten free baking/cooking. There is also a pasta maker available with the Kitchenaid - which I didn't see for the Sunbeam. | ||

Attachment vs. Stand alone appliances For the cost of Kitchenaid's can opener attachment you can buy 2 or 3 electric can openers. | ||

Thanks for posting that. 
Love those old manuals, not just for the pictures etc but the writing and the now passe terms and verbage. Escalloped potatoes anyone. Heretofore coffee making has always required In the can opener section it talks about opening cans which have been heated first in fact saying that is the best way for canned soups, corn etc.. Strange, I wonder why and lastly to find many of those attachments now, very difficult and some near impossible. | ||

40's Verbiage - American idiom
Such gems as: "It takes no end of tiresome difficult work of your hands." "All done in a jiffy with results beyond comparison with hand or other methods." "Attaches to Mixmaster in a jiffy." "Causes no muss, in fact beats any other way of shelling peas all hollow." Now, I can't remember when I heard ANYONE say that anything or anybody was "beat all hollow". LOL... | ||

Appliance Manuals today Manuals today have far fewer words and lots more pictures. I find that says something about our society today that isn't very positive. I see it as "dummying" down. Granted today manuals have to cover safety issues today to comply with rules and regulations today. | ||

And that's if you get a manual at all. Usually all you get is a small white printed booklette or an instruction sheet folded like a map. Gone are the days of a well printed owners and users manual. Heck even a blender back in the 60's usually came with a color booklet explaining everything and lotsa recipes and microwave ovens etc nearly always had a hard-cover instruction book with recipes as well.

Archive? I think this thread should be archived. Partially for its sheer usefulness, and also for the sweetness of it all. Lawrence/Maytagbear | ||

I received an email asking if this thread could be somehow archived. I created a new category under the "Vintage Fun Stuff" button on the home page, if you scroll to near the bottom of that page there is a new category called "USEFUL SUPER FORUM THREADS NOT OTHERWISE ARCHIVED". This thread will be available from there even after it falls off the bottom.
