For various reasons wringer (conventional) or semi-automatic washer market survived far longer post WWII world in Canada than down south (North America).
In USA housewives couldn't wait to get rid of wringer washers post WWII as tons of new automatics were coming out. They had been available before the war, but restrictions meant supply was limited. It wasn't helping that Consumer Reports and others had a long simmering hate by then against wringer washers. Long story short this explains why on auction sites, estate sales, and elsewhere you routinely find tons of wringer or twin tub washers on offer in Canada. |
