Canning funnel.
Makes it easier to get things into glass jars without the narrow opening that would get clogged in a smaller funnel.
The doors.
George forman grill, quesadilla maker, and a pizza oven.
Penis.
Part of the original large corner desk I bought after graduating college. It was like 8’ in both directions from the corner. I finally switched to a motorized rectangle desk, but I kept one side of the old desk for it’s hutch. The thing is made of cheap mdf, but it’s still doing it’s job.
Pretty sure most of my stuff is over 20 years old at this point. My razor is at least 60.
I have too many old razors.
My current razor is a feather asd2, less than a decade old.
Everything except (some) food and water.
I wanted to say N64 but it’s closer to 30. I still boot up my PS3 from time to time though
Whirlpool washer and dryer from the 80’s. They came with the house and they are INVINCIBILE.
Damn straight. Still rocking the Whirlpool dishwasher that came with the house in 1992. Unfortunately the Whirlpool oven range that came with the house is barely functional. The oven still works, but I can’t get the pilots to ignite on the stovetop. The Whirlpool dryer still works effectively, though it could be better.
Currently remodeling my house, so I’m definitely planning to upgrade to a Whirlpool washer-dryer combo, and I’ll likely get a Whirlpool dual-fuel oven range. And if push comes to shove, I might get a new Whirlpool dishwasher.
I mean, unless Whirlpool’s products were hit with the enshittification stick…
The kitchen TV, one of the first flat-screen TVs, a Sharp with 720p resolution, I think 21 inches. It’s sad to think that since then, four different TVs have been in my living room.
Herman Miller Aeron Chair. Have had it for at least 25 years and besides a scuff or two on the arms, it’s in perfect shape. I work from home and am sitting on it all day every day, so it definitely has held up.
My spouse and I both have mid century 5 drawer tanker desks. I’m sitting at it to type this.
Attached to my monitor stand is the modified remains of an 80’s gravity lamp. The base broke but the springs are good and it makes a great spotlight.
Our server and tv are built into the remains of an early 80’s Zenith console TV. The screen was dead so we cut out space behind the decorative front pannel for a 32in flat screen and cut down the tower to work as scaffolding for the computer parts. Tossed a sound bar in and now it booms like a theater. You don’t even notice the 2in of screen that’s losts on the ends.
Our stove is a Montgomery Ward from the late 70s. It’s an absolute marvel to use. The clock is broken so I’m planning to dismantle that area to put controls for a vent fan I want to install in the attached shelf.
Our fridge is modern but the second I find myself a '64 GE Americana I’m gutting it to modetnize that masterpiece. Unless I find the tools for metal fab first…
My Samsung microwave is from the mid 70’s. It doesn’t have a turn table but it heats food better than any modern box and has a fraction of the radio leak that my Walmart one had.
Do you have a writeup with pics for the server/tv project? That sounds very very cool.

Mine still has a yoshi sticker I wrote my name on when I was five.

…huh. I’m genuinely surprised at how many things in my home aren’t twenty years old.
Same here, it would be quicker to say what’s newer than that. All the new shit broke so there’s not that much left.
All of my musical instruments and a surprising number of tools. A lot of vinyl records. He’ll I have computer thats 25 years old that I still turn on.
