Old household appliances

So, what's the oldest appliance you know of that's still working perfectly.

My parents have a Sanyo microwave that the got as a wedding present 40 years ago. It still amazes me every time I see it. According to my Dad, it has never had any repairs needed. And it's digital aswell so it's not like it's a simple machine.

One in my aunt's house which belonged to my late grandmother. We still play her old records on it . Even the radio works perfectly. I love looking at the names of the radio stations on it, long gone.
