Question of the Day - What's your most reliable home appliance?

From The Panel, 4:32 pm on 30 January 2019

We got so many responses to this!

Michelle's Ralta crockpot "still going strong! (Yes, that is a 1960s formica bench it's sitting on.) Made in Palmy I think; bought from the factory shop"

Carolyn's Kenwood Chef and liquidiser "Its still going very well. Not had any repairs. Given to us as a wedding present in.....1963"

@WeavingHouse "Krups Coffee grinder ~ made in the 70's ~ came with me when I flew the nest ~ use every day excellent working condition ~ have probably burned through 15 or more kettles in that time including two electric kettles placed on the stove top! Things that last as they should!"

My parents have a Tellus Vaccum Cleaner that was a wedding gift, presumably new, in 1968 - still in working order. The original woven hose lasted years but has since been replaced a couple of times with a plastic alternative.
