I have a Panasonic “Genius” microwave from 1983, still going strong.
A multimeter from the 70’s, although I don’t use it often anymore (I have two newer ones)
A Back and Decker b-100 corded drill from the 1960’s with a skill saw of the same era. (Both backups in case my newer ones die.)
Also not really tech, but A scythe from the 1930’s, an old clothes iron from the early 1900’s (The kind you heated on the stove) a machete from 1920, and a couple old hand pump sprayers from the 20’s or 30’s (The type you screw a glass bottle onto) that all are functional but mainly just collect dust.
I probably have some other old crap I’m not thinking of at the moment, I just like collecting weird old things.
I’m going to cry when mine finally dies. I bought it second hand in 1991/92 and have only ever replaced the light bulb in it once around 98. That microwave has survived both my daughters growing up and a lot of moves over the years.
Although at this rate I might crap out before it does lol.

Mine eventually started stopping after one minute no matter how long I asked it to cook. I guess the brain was starting to go.
