what year did Westinghouse Electric Corp. begin selling the Laundromat front loading washer to the consumer?

Question

I think it might be sometime in the late 1930's or early 1940's. I beleive they were used in laundromats before they became available to the comsumers. There was a laundromat down the street that had a big sign outside that accually said The Westinghouse laundromat It had 10 slant front Westinghouse Laundromat washers and was expanded to fit 15 strate front Laundromats. The strait front machines were much newer than the slant front models and were out of order a bit more than the slant front models. So much for progress.

Answer 1

i think the 1940s i remember i was small and after the war ?
