The cheapest Speed Queen in 1950 was $100, which is about $1300 in today’s dollars. It looks like Speed queen starts about the same cost now. Now you can get these machines for $500. 1/3 cost for 1/3 quality. So either way it’s roughly $100 per year that’s about $2 per week. Still quite affordable and worth every penny compared to a washboard and basin, wringing, and line drying (and spending 2-4 hours of your time doing laundry every week).
