Corningware Percolator Cord
[Down to Last]

Did all Corning percolators require a unique size cord? My mom used one when I was a kid which she received for a wedding gift in 1965. The cord on that one seemed pretty standard like other brand percolators, corn poppers, etc. My grandmother had one from the mid-1970's (Spice O'Life)--solid plastic lid, more rounded and not quite as tall as my mom's and I recall a different style cord on hers.

I picked one up the other day which was shaped like my mom's and had all the parts except the cord. Unfortunately a "standard" percolator cord won't fit.

I know there's a slim chance that I'll find the unique cord required, but thought I'd get my question posted to the Vacuumland community to help narrow my search.

You should not use Corningware percolators. They are dangerous. Many people were badly burned by them and they were recalled with future sales prohibited.

Yeah Charles, I was thinking those percolators had a safety recall. My dad's parents had one and I guess they mentioned something about that to me. when I found it in a cabinet while looking for something else. But did they get rid of it? No. They held onto it, I guess because they thought that one day they might just have the last one in existence.
