Bought a refurbished Norge fridge in 88. Have moved a few times since. Its now in my garage and just will not die. Never had to recharge. Its the ugliest fricking fridge in the world, that puke yellow color. But I paid $75 for it back then and eventually got a modern one so put it in garage for beer duty.

Got an original Amana Radar Range from around 1967 that works like it always did.

An Oregon scientific weather station. I have had it for 20 years and the barometer still works accurately.

This is totally random, but I thought of it yesterday. I have the same pair of tweezers from high school from over 20 years ago. But I like them and I've never found a comparable pair that works as well. If I ever lose these I'll be so sad.

one was a Hamilton Beach electric carving knife that my parents left to me.
it was over 60 years old when it finally gave up while cleaning a bunch of speckled trout.
the other was a Carrier freezer that the parents got when I was a child. the freezer was given to the people that subscribed to their meat plan and purchased meat monthly...it was over 60 years old when I gave it to a friend to use at his camp. Still worked fine just had to manually defrost it every 5 or 6 months...

Mrs Vette had an old toothbrush she used to clean her rings. I asked her what she was gonna do if it broke.
"Just use yours."

My mini fridge. Bought it for college 3 decades ago and it's still running.

My garage refrigerator. I had it probably a good 10 years before Hurricane Harvey flooded my house in 2017. I mean it was literally floating sideways in the garage because that is the way we found it. During cleanup I put it out on the street by the mountain of debris to get hauled off. One day during cleanup I opened it. There wasn’t really anything in there but beer but I was expecting the worst and honestly it must not have gotten to much water because it wasn’t that bad. At that point I was curious if it even had life so I ran an extension cord to it and the damn thing still worked. I actually left it plugged in at the street for a day just to make sure and it is still in my garage to this day. Cleanup up, of course.

My first Sony d14 1985. Sounds crappy but plays perfectly. It has a hard time with Ricoh cdr’s.
