My Italian grandmother had a washing machine that was like a tub with a stick and then you fed the clothes into some kind of device that looked like a slip-roll, presumably to squeeze the water out. But she was a foreigner, like Dahlia.

My mom had one like that, but without the roll. She had to wring her own clothes. Then I bought her a modern front loader. I remember, I used all my savings to buy it, and literally 2 days later the big inflation hit. My savings would’ve been worthless. So, I made a very good decision.
