I have a treadmill at my home. Its 7 years old and still running.

Me and my mother uses it two times a day. Thats a solid 1 hour everyday distributed over two times during the entire span of 24 hours.

No repairs yet.

Whats yours?

One of my televisions which I use everyday is still working. It's 8 years old and still going. My TV isn't smart. However, the screen is a flat HD (LCD) and the brand is Samsung. Same here, no repairs as of yet on this device.

Depends on what we're counting as electronics. I have a console that's 47 years old, but I don't use it regularly. It functions and it gets used every now and then, but not routinely. If we're talking routinely, then I've got a set of speakers hooked up that I've had since a 1998 Gateway I got for Christmas, so 22 years :D. I keep them because they're just better than anything else I've ever used, and they have amazing sound and a subwoofer that gives you some nice power behind your audio (Boston Acoustics BA635's if you're interested).

47 Years Old?!?!?! Please enlighten me and tell me which retro console you're a proud owner of and when was the last time you played? Which titles are in you’re gaming collection?

It's a Pong console from 1973 (the sticker say '73, but I have reason to doubt that it was released prior to '75, when the first official Atari home Pong consoles were released, but I'm going by the sticker date for now), and while it's not in the daily rotation, I do tend to bring it out once a year or so to play against a friend or family member looking for a bit of fun.

As for my collection, I have 35+ consoles ranging from that Pong console all the way up to today's consoles (Xbox One X, PS4 and Nintendo Switch). I have about 2,000 games at the moment, with my largest being my 360 collection, which is over 400 unique physical games (I don't count the digital titles).

I have a Samsung TV and a Philips HTS that I got in 2007. Still going strong after 13 years. The TV on it's last legs though.

I have 4 mobile phones too procured around the same time still in working condition. I don't have exact date. I don't use them anymore though. They are just lying around in cupboard.

My desktop lasted since 2017 I think and the monitor since 2011. Anyway, monitors are supposed to go out - so this is surprising!
