The Columbus Washboard Co. was established in 1895 and is the last manufacturer of washboards in the United States. We sell all over the world through our online store, through our distribution centers both in Logan, Ohio and our UK office in Bromley, Kent, as well as through our retail and online partners across the globe. Yes, Washboards are still used to

day! For laundry, stain removal, decoration and of course as musical instruments! We are proud of the high quality of our work and still manufacture our products one at a time by hand using some equipment dating back to the turn of the 20th Century. We still use our original logos for our branded washboards and can custom make washboards using your original logo. We also supply a small range of nostalgic and authentic soaps and personal products from the United States and Great Britain to help encourage the companies to continue production. Situated in historic downtown Logan, we are both a living piece of history and a great place to visit. Our air conditioned museum store is well worth a visit, featuring the history of our company, original artifacts, information on Logan and surrounding areas, and of course washboards, soaps, and many other curios. Why not take a factory tour and step back in time? We are proud to be a genuine US manufacturer, not a marketing company or former manufacturing company that has turned it's factory into a store front for imported goods. Feel proud about buying a product that your Great Grandma probably could have bought from the same company, and help keep a piece of history alive! Tours: Monday - Saturday 11am, 1pm, 3pm

We had some wonderfully groovy visitors stop by during this yearโ€™s Hippie! โ˜ฎ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿฆ„
All the way from Ashtabula, Ohio, this far out couple came to the Hocking Hills dressed to impress and they brought peace, love, and flower power spirit right along with them!
Weโ€™re always happy to see folks embracing the spirit of the โ€˜60s and โ€˜70s, spreading good vibes, and having a little fun along the way. And of course, no trip to Hippie Fest is complete without a stop at the Columbus Washboard Co.! ๐Ÿ˜Ž
Peace, love, good vibes & washboards!

Every once in a while, someone shares a story that reminds us just how powerful music can be.
A customer recently told us about giving one of our washboards to an elderly family member living with advanced MS. She spends her days in a wheelchair, but the moment the washboard was placed in her lap, something beautiful happened. Familiar melodies came back to her, her face lit up with joy, and she eagerly joined in as old favorite songs filled the room.
For nearly an hour, she smiled, laughed, kept the rhythm, and was completely caught up in the happiness of the moment. It wasn't just music... it was connection, treasured memories, and a chance to simply enjoy life again.
Reading stories like this touches our hearts in ways we can't fully express. Knowing that something we make can help create moments of happiness like this is an incredible blessing.
Thank you to everyone who shares these special moments with us. They remind us that sometimes the simplest things, a familiar song, a steady beat, and a little music can make all the difference. โค๏ธ๐ŸŽถ
