The Least Perfect Birthday Present

Ask the woman what a kitchen appliance, and she could not, the first thing they say: life is the washing machine.

Ask a woman what she wants for her birthday and the last thing they say is a new washing machine.

Ask your wife what she was when her husband bought her a washing machine for her birthday and I think that divorce would be the preferred solution.

However, this is not always the case. The operation of kitchen appliances has long been the domain of women. Although the fascination with the gadgets people for many years, with new machines that make life easier for us. Or simply that we have several days, we already do!
If you do not place unrealistic as East Enders, nobody owns a washing machine and gathered together to live in the local laundromat, the washing machine is a device that very little would have no kitchens.

Were in earlier times, women washing clothes of his family to the nearest stream and pound on the rocks, to purify it. With sand as an abrasive, it was a very difficult and probably ineffective.

But in 1874, William Blackstone us all a favor with the invention of our favorite kitchen appliance – the first washing machine. He joined his wife for a birthday (brave man paid!) This new gadget like a wooden tub with a flat piece of wood held six small wooden pegs. With warm water and soap is made stuffed the clothes pin and pulled through the water in a system with a handle and wheels Agreement.

Taken within five years, according to Blackstone, Jamestown, New York and founded his company, washing machines. Price they are still in operation began, but more than 200 participants, thanks to God remain low.

It is assumed that the first “laundromat” came in 1851 when a 12-shirt machine was operated by 10 donkeys. I’m sure it was not Dot Cotton I walk in thinking that is a great opportunity.

A spinner has left the disc in 1861 and incorporated metal drums have replaced wooden ones in 1900. Order electric washing machines were introduced in 1906, making the system even easier. In 1922, the company Maytag forcing a system to spray the clothes with an agitator, and they will be merged with the cylinder system, the two most important inventions that have survived to this day.

Developed in the mid-1930s, John Chamberlain, this addition to the kitchen for a machine for washing, rinsing, and would extract water from clothes in a single operation. Then was founded in 1947 with the first top-loader of the predecessors of the spa.

The system is almost perfect, the trend of recent years are now more concerned about energy savings – for the environment, and not for women.

What I do not understand is when their husband with all these inventions, food processor, why can not they use?
