“My original Mach3 razor handle.
Obviously, I replace the disposable razors, but I love my razor.
Not the plastic used today.
Got it when I was 13.
Also, I’m female.
Men’s razors for the win!”
I still use them regularly, and I fully expect that I’ll break more in the years ahead.
Such is life!"

“I inherited my grandparents' washer and dryer that are from the early ’80s.
On the washer, I replaced a valve ($12) about five years ago.
As long as the parts are still available, I think they’ll last forever.

I tell everyone about them.
Then I throw it in the garage and clean garage stuff with it.
Its pretty beat up after two years, but honestly still has life.
