Vintage Waring Blenders from the 60's & 70's

Here's two vintage Waring blenders or blendors as Waring called them. Both were top of the line models with chrome metal bases, glass jars, a plethora of 14 speeds and a 60 second timer and featured a whopping 1000 watts of power. You don't get that sort of power today except in a Vita Mix or Blendtec type machine. The one on the left is from the late 60's and the one on the right is early to mid 70's. It's doubtful anyone ever used all 14 speeds which is excessive but that's how they liked to do things back then,,more buttons = better = more money AND much much more difficult to keep clean!!!!
That's the price of happiness I guess.

I just purchased a Waring Blender Model 1216 from Ebay today and it looks identical to the one you have on the left. Am glad to know it was made in the 60s as I personally feel that the quality of American made small appliances started to decline in the 70s, however I could be wrong. I also love the fact that the 60s model is quieter than the 70s one which also points to the high quality blenders back then used to have. Cheers, and keep putting out these kind of comparison videos.

I have the Waring 7 speed Ultima 900. It looks very similar in design with the chrome and the automatic timer. The buttons on mine are arranged horizontally.

For all the early learners here, the name's not Warning nor Warring but is pronounced "Ware-ing."

If you look from above is it rotating clockwise or anticlockwise? Thank you
