Good ol’ GE, such a quirky product line: coffee makers, jet engines, alarm clocks, gatling guns, washing machines, and nuclear power plants.
Well, if you can make a washing machine, you can make a nuclear power plant.
Most of my mom’s cookware is ceramic with that design on it
I have no idea where she got it, but I have a feeling she would say “wedding gift”
They were married in 1975
Oh, we had one of these. It damn near caught the kitchen on fire one day about a decade ago.
I’m pretty sure that pot predates that machine. Nice.
And we had both!
I want to see the inside of that bad boy.
My grandparents had the exact same coffee maker / pot combo.
I think there is a recall on some of those pots because the handle can fall off.
Edit: It’s corningware percolators.
Yep, corningware. Decent glassware, plentiful in thrift stores.
The GE heater would fail on these and catch the whole house on fire.
Love that carafe.
I’m as old as that thing.

Holy shit this is what my technoworm is based off of?
