About half of my books.

An ice cream scooper from the 1940’s with a mechanical scoop releaser and a bread knife from the 80’s, both random bits that were passed down the family. Nothing special, just very well made tools. Also a Hala desk lamp circa 1950.

My aunt has a 40’s era sunbeam stand mixer that works perfectly… just needs a new electrical chord. Most things are made to be replaced now. Those not so much.

The house itself: 1880

KitchenAid stand mixer

Marble base metal stand lamp

woolen poncho, bought for $20 at a craft fair in 2004

multiple dressers and bedframes

multiple vintage SciFi hardback books

wooden chairs salvaged from the University of Chicago Harper Library

homemade quilts

Soccer jersey from 2004

duct tape wallet assembled in 2003

cardboard box for Arby's curly fries, collected from a dumpster in 2002 to pack favorite Lego builds for storage in the summer before going to college, plus the Legos themselves

...huh. I'm genuinely surprised at how many things in my home aren't twenty years old.

Clay bowl I made in high school. It's where pocket coins accumulate until I dump them into the machine at the bank that puts them back into my account.

The amplifier of my parents' old stereo. Must be from the early 90's. Still going!

Almost everything is more than 20 years old, build my house in 92

my HP Printer / Scanner from 1998

Whirlpool washer and dryer from the 80’s. They came with the house and they are INVINCIBILE.

my super nintendo

My damn life.

Most of my audio gear. Receivers, turntable, eq, speakers....

If you want to build yourself a nice "vintage" sound system, look for things made before 1980ish. pretty much everything built before that was made to last and can always be repair. After that, they started to deliberately make things that would break within a couple of years so that isn't meant to be repaired.

Pretty sure most of my stuff is over 20 years old at this point. My razor is at least 60.

X10 to turn off/on a couple lights remotely. It uses radio waves so no bs "smart home" data mining app. This thing

Thanks to a particular YouTube personality I imported a toaster from the US and converted it to run on 230v. My modifications aside, it's from the late 1950s and still works perfectly.

WW2-era P-38 can opener.

Sunbeam Radiant Control Toaster

Toaster GOAT.

It's a sweet chrome and orange model.

Breadbox, colander, all the silverware, plates cups bowls.

Oh, house.

An ebow (electromagnetic bow) that I bought used from some estate sale. It has a cassette tape in the box presumably containing instructions for how to play it and demos of it being used.

I don't use it regularly as I mostly play bass and the spacings on its grooves are made with standard guitar in mind so it's rather difficult to play with a bass consistently. but it is incredibly cool.

(image not mine)

Guitar

A Mosin bayonet. uh wait, I gotta go.

My alarm clock. It's probably 30 years old now. It projects the time onto the ceiling, which is amazing when you wake up in the morning and don't know if you over or under slept. I don't use the alarm, but the ceiling clock is invaluable.

A Kitchenaid stand mixer that is 48 years old and still works perfectly, but the most ridiculous old item is a 35 year old Panasonic boom box with an added BT adapter that's still in regular use.

Tap water. It's at least 4 billion years old.

Actual answer will be one wooden stool and one round wooden chair made around the 80s. It came from a very old house my sister recently bought that the occupant left untouched since 2008, based on the technology and the calendar. So when my sister wanted to renovate the whole house she asked us to just pick anything that we wanted as everything will be tossed, so i grabbed a wooden chair and stool, give it a little sanding, oil it up with tung oil, and been using it ever since. They also have this grandfather clock that would look great if refurbished, but i don't really have much time to refurb anything else. Wooden furniture is awesome.

Edit: shoutout to my mom's sewing machine + table that she have since she married my dad. You know those with giant crank wheel and you have to rock your feet forth and back to operate the machine? Those. She upgraded the machine to electric in the 90s and still use it today, exact same build.

I have a leather belt from the Gap circa 2002 that I've worn most days during that time. It still looks great. I've tried to find a similar one for years, but every belt I've found seems to be made with cheaper materials that aren't going to last

Coffee brewer. Desk. Have a 100(?) year old wooden couch that the dog likes to sleep on.

A wall clock that was gifted to my grandparents on their marriage anniversary, and I've been fighting everyone in the house to keep it.

That clock is close to 40 years old, and still is functional. It's a simple clock made in Germany. No protective glass or a seconds hand. Just a plain clock that has turn brown over time. Everyone in my home thinks it's trash. I think it's an engineering marvel.

Almost all my furniture, lights and light fittings, a lot of my cooking stuff, my car, a lot of my tools, and even some of my clothes

So many things. The one that gets used the most is a laundry basket which still has the old orange "Spags" price sticker on it. I miss Spags...

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.

Some of my kitchen knives, at least one is 40+ and others 20+, generally a lot of my kitchen utensils are quite old

The keyboard I bought for my first PC build. It's the Alchemy Elixir.

Lots of stuff; I'm old (enough) and frugal. A lot of my tools might be the oldest, from my faster and grandfather.

Me

Turned 30 this year. Used to make coffee 1-2 times per day, every day since it was bought new in 1996.

They still sell them. They retail for AUD$1000.

My marriage

Most of what I own. No point in replacing something when there's nothing wrong with it.

I still have a stuffed animal from when I was a kid and a couple of plates from when I lived with my parents. I had to drop a lot of things I wanted to keep, I didn't because they were utterly infested and I didn't have the spoons to try and clean it out for when I moved out.

Most of it?

Particularly the furniture. New furniture is a waste. Aside from like, mattresses. Zero reason to buy new frames, tables, etc. None.

A clip-on lamp whose shade I replaced with a tin can.

Our couches are somewhere around 6th hand, probably more. The two single seaters are still going strong, but the two seater recently had its back go out. I'm going to try to fix it, but it probably won't last.

My audio system. It still sounds better than lots of new equipment in the same price category.

I used to have a 40+ year old cutting board.

I have a Kewl stainless steel hiking bottle.

1 small lamp I bought used at a fleamarket, I had to replace the socket.

Manfrotto tripod.

The house.

1 large Thermos.

1 brace n bit, bought used at a fleamarket.

A book called "The Passive Energy Book" by Edward Mazria 1979

Off the top of my head:

• Two of my guitars
• Living room table
• The steak knives (our cutlery in general is somewhat new, but the steak knives are ~30 years old)
• I'm sure I have misc cables older than 20 years. Network, serial, IEC, etc. And yes, I use serial cables often.
• Our kitchen stove is around 20 y.o., but the kitchen is next up on the renovation agenda, so it won't be that much longer
• Does my GF count?
• I have some really old clothes that I still wear. One example is the Soilwork band shirt, bought at a concert when they were touring for their newest album "Natural Born Chaos"
• A guitar pedal with a 60s style distortion (the pedal is from the 90s, though)
• We live in an old house, so many of the lamps are pretty old too.
• My basement toiled was installed in the 80s

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.

I wanted to say N64 but it's closer to 30. I still boot up my PS3 from time to time though

Craftsman multimeter(maybe 25 yrs). My uncle gave it to me. It's from the durable era of consumer electronics.

I have a 100+ year old singer I sometimes still use. The old machines are very sturdy and can punch through leather and canvas. It was my great grandmothers, then aunts, now mine.

My first Costco purchase was 19 years ago, my Philips 47” LCD TV is still alove and kicking and has outlived 2 other TVs we have had in that time.

A lot of my books. Two harddrives in my server. My couch. My tables. My chairs. My bike. A computer case. A laptop.

Some are not just over 20, they're over 50 or in some cases over 100. In one case more than 300. I'll let you guess which would be which.

My tabletop radio was made in 1958, it's still in perfect working order.

My entire living room audio setup is from the early 1970's.

Our kitchen has a Kenwood mixer/multi-apparatus from 1982, I changed the motor grease ~10 years ago and it works like new. Most of our kitchenware is inherited and at least 50 years old.

My oldest guitar is from 1950's and the newest maybe late 1990's.

Now that I've come to think of it, most part of the things I own and actively use actually predate the 1990's.

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.
