If you like your food charred outside and frozen inside, I guess that can work. They also just remove the plate from this hellfire oven with no gloves, which strikes me as probably unsafe.

Yes and no. "Star Trek" is still 7 years in the future, complete with hand held communicators. The few phones in the background shots all have land lines and rotary dials. As for "Microfilm" recipe files? Who threw that dud in?
i assume if you replace all the original equipment by modern A+ energy saving devices that bill will drop heavily. in the 1960's you could need a personal nuclear power plant to run your home and it will be a few bucks per month. the electricity became expensive when it became popular.
@@aagc1988 True, but instead of an expensive electricity bill you now have to replace each electronic device every year and become economically broken due to product planned obsolescence.
@@SlothGuru not entirely true. if you get decent brands you may get 5 to 10 years per appliance. for example a washer and dryer combo from LG usually lasts between 7 to 10 years long and the water and energy consumtion for front load washer/dryer is like 10 times less than original 1960 westinghouse washers and dryers. plus you dont need to "get rid" of the devices, you can storage them and use them from time to time. not a washer but for example a coffe maker, etc.
@@aagc1988 my microwave is from 1999 (almost 25 yrs old lol). it's stainless steel and it still looks brand new and everything works. i got other stuff the same age that still work, that i bought brand new back then or almost new, like my first laptop with XP. i even got stuff that i bought used later, like a white kitchen tv from 1985 that works, and tons of radios/stereos even 50+ years old that are still operational (well, more or less). some things could literally outlive us. especially the older things that were of good quality that was made to last. stuff these days (at least the chinese crap) won't last even a decade. you're lucky if you get 3 years, lol

There are a lot of things in that house we have today. I have an air purifier, and a microwave, and there are surveillance cameras everywhere. How great would it be to be able to control the temperature in each one of your rooms? Ah, the 1950s...the most optimistic of all decades.
@@joeshmoe9978Yes, and then the trickle down economy happened thanks to Reagan. But the money never trickled down and the 1% kept all the money the workers made for them.
One person would need more than a part-time job. And I’m sure my one-income family in 1960 could not have afforded that home. My dad had a college degree and did well but not that well.
amazing restoration. and amazing in 1959 they predicted how we could live in 2023 aldo we dont have 3 kitchens per home (all those "bars" looked like extra kitchens to me) and we dont depend on fireplaces anymore. it was a lovely time to be living in many regards.
Shame some of these things never took off. Like the heated mirror in the bathroom... why isn't that a thing?! Even the lawn moisture meter would make a lot of sense if you have a sprinkler system.
We had 12% interest on a mortgage and runaway inflation when we were young and trying to buy homes and raise kids. The economy wasn’t our “fault” anymore than the current economy is your generation’s “fault.
@@alaricabercrombie2692 something I've noticed is that the elderly folks from those generations are always so kind and grateful. Very respectable people with a lot of integrity. Boomers however?

You can see the ideas that stuck, electric heat and air, microwaves, etc. but also you can see the things that were great in idea but not so much in practice, electric sidewalks, and an electric no fog mirror
Why do you need a "wall of light" to warm and cool a room... when you have that fancy thermostat that keeps the whole house in the "perfect temperature" year round?
No mammoths 🦣 with tats all over their bodies, people were more wholesome, helpful and sincere. (in general) No Whales (no offense to them) in line for Buffets, sugary drinks and strong foods preservatives didn’t exist. Ladies behave feminine and ladylike everywhere.

I converted my house to all electric, but high efficiency (heat pumps) and mostly powered by my solar panels. The appliances in this dream electric home would waste a vast amount of energy and cost a fortune.

An oven that can cook in 6 seconds!? Microwaves can't even do that now. 😂
Yes, that's extremely fast. That statement in the video took my breath for a second.
i assume is a not safe for home industrial microwave oven, since if you see the video the food is ready but frozen. the microwave should heat it on 6 seconds apparently.
you'd need a time machine because it'd really mess up whatever you are cooking by cooking it differently
No not even cook all the way
If you like your food charred outside and frozen inside, I guess that can work. They also just remove the plate from this hellfire oven with no gloves, which strikes me as probably unsafe.
I wonder how many American families could afford to have such amazing total electric homes in 1959 and even today.
0.01%. Basically that one dued whats his name
Most Americans already have 90% of what's mentioned in this video.
@@mr_k_games what rightttt 90% dont live-in a closet app
There must be a service man at their home 7-days a week to fix all this unnecessary crap.
@@mr_k_games lots of Americans can barely afford a roof over their head and healthy food on a daily basis
I love that midcentury furniture
I don't, I think it's ugly. The only reason it's so popular, IMO, is nostalgia... it's the time period we want, not necessarily the decor.
Okay this concept home fron 1959 has some features I wouldn't mind having in my house today.
Then go and get it. Most of this is now more advanced, available and a lot is affordable. What exactly do you think we still don't have, besides stuff that "cooks" in seconds.
It's beautiful. That 1950s style they call "atomic." It seems like almost anything we can dream up we can invent and manifest.

It's not advanced anymore. I guess to Slavs it would seem like it. I'm a slave and I get it. We have most of this.

Very relaxing.

Doesn't sound very "total" lmao
(Also nice! I used to live in Royal Oak, comfy area.)

I mean, you can't control every single room individually, but there are heating and cooling systems that are zoned, which is pretty close.
