Apparently, nothing made a 1950's woman happier than a new washing machine.

Have you ever used a wringer washer? You'd cry with joy with a new automatic washer too!
Odds are that the ladies in the wringer washer ads looked just as happy, though. They could kiss the washboard goodbye.
Too true! See the image I just added at the bottom.
I agree with Mister G. Washing clothes was hard heavy wet hot work. A wringer was an improvement over boiling clothes and an automatic machine just amazing. And they were very expensive too. A family would need to seriously consider the cost.
Washing machines have become commodities we have forgotten what hard work it used to be.
