Remarkable American Engineering

So, Kitty has my Mama's GE Super Deluxe hand held mixer she got as a wedding gift in 1951. It's always worked well. The electric cord recently rotted so I got another one. When it came in, I decided to take the mixer apart, clean it, service it and grease it. It's still in remarkable condition. The gears show almost no wear and the motor still runs strong and quiet. I've always loved the jet engine styling and what's so cool about that is, it almost works like a jet engine. It has an intake in the front and exhaust at the rear and you can feel the air going in the intake and out the exhaust from the cooling fan inside. Simply remarkable 100% AMERICAN engineering that will now likely last another 73 years. There's nothing on the shelf at WalMart that will come close.

my mom had one just like that. It was rumored they modeled some of the vehicles from "The Jetsons" after that model and that Gene Roddenberry added another handle to make the original starship Enterprise.
