Do you have any old kitchen appliances that just keep going?

My mother in law has that same blender, still works - probably because she's too short to get it out. I think I've used it more to make things over the past few years than she did the entire time she has had it.

I'm in possession of a KitchenAid stand mixer my parents received as a wedding present in 1972.

The only thing even remotely not great about it is the lateral attachment port has seen better days, but that's only because some of third the attachments for it don't fit that great and wear it out.

>>	Anonymous Wed Jul 8 14:22:58 2015 No.6662628 >>6662432 I had that exact same blender. My mom gave it to me when I first moved out, worked perfectly except the stopper for the lid was missing. It got lost last year when I moved, though, along with a box of assorted kitchen stuff.

OP here. I just discovered that the toaster has asbestos paneling inside. Fibrous, exposed, and not touching the toast but pretty darned close to it. Apparently this was a normal heat-resistant material in toasters until they wised up and banned it.

I've already eaten a bunch of toast from it. Fuck. Unless Proctor-Silex could have been using some other material in 1968...

>>	Anonymous Wed Jul 8 21:08:19 2015 No.6663727 >>6663672 The problem is more from breathing in the particles than from ingesting it. Still, I bet it would have often been agitated and thrown dust into the air.

My dad still uses a ratty old fallout style fridge from the 60s. It's not a professional refurbished or nice or anything it's literally been sitting in the same spot since it was purchased new by his mother
he did go to school for acre pair and works in plumbing so I think that's how he keeps it going

>>	Anonymous Wed Jul 8 21:39:15 2015 No.6663798 >>6663672 That's pretty cool. Asbestos really is a miracle material except for all the cancer stuff

>>	Anonymous Wed Jul 8 21:44:01 2015 No.6663803 I have my mom's Hobart stand mixer and Dominion electric wafflemaker >thin crispy round waffle BITCH YEAH FUCK YO BELGIAN SHIT from the 50's so there's that

>>	Anonymous Thu Jul 9 07:45:54 2015 No.6664871 My dad had one of these at our house. Apparently his parents had the same kind. He said he was sidetracked one time and pronounced "liquify" as "lih kwee fee" and never heard the end of it from his family.
