My Kenwood hand mixer and electric knife were wedding presents 50 years ago last October. They still get used.
The integrated fridge and ceramic hob are 31 years old, we didn't change them when the kitchen was refitted in 2009.

I still have my 2005 launch day psp console which is still regularly play, my first TV was a cheap beko 20" (old fat crt type) which is now at my local retro gaming store for them to play on (it's better for retro consoles).
Our beko fridge freezer of 17 years died last year but we insured it (had it repaired twice) so now have a brand new replacement. In my man cave I have the first ever hifi I bought which is 25years old. Tape decks bands are dead but the minidisc still works! With it I have the awia turntable from my first hifi which I got 29 years ago. Also got a portable radio that does all bands including short wave (used to love searching for foreign stations as a kid!) which I got from tandy 30 years ago!

We have a Bosch tumble dryer that is more than 20 years old. My Sony Dreamcube bedside alarm clock must be close to 30 and DH’s is even older.
My previous Gaggia coffee machine was about 15 when it gave up, it’s replacement seems less well built, more ‘plasticky’ and I doubt will give the same service.

We have a Vax Wet and Dry really big and heavy tub shaped cleaner in bright orange -they still make a similar one - which we got soon after we got married, around 40 odd years old. It’s still going strong and now powers a dust extractor system for DH wood turning hobby. Is regularly detached to suck up the wood shavings. In the meantime we have had a Hoover Junior, Miele and 3 Dysons.
