An old Braun Infrared Electronic-Sensor Toaster.

Use it every week pretty much. I have some old electronics I use occasionally. My kitchen probably has lots of similarly aged appliances, but nothing gets the workout of the toaster.

I keep checking the Goodwill and Salvation Army stores locally hoping to find some old lamps I can rewire and make functional. Should be an easy task, but I'm kind of looking for a certain theme and they are always spendy.

Re: What's the oldest electronic device you have that you still use regularly?
My grandfather's Seth Thomas mantle clock that runs on house current. What's bizarre is it keeps perfect time, and there's a speed adjustment inside the clock. My grandfather must have tweaked the adjustment over the years to make it keep perfect time.

I remember it in his house in the 1960s, but I don't know how old it is. I keep it in my garage because of the loud bonging noises it makes on the hour, and half hour.

I have an old Sony weatherproof radio from the 1970s that still works perfect, but I don't listen to the radio anymore. I also still use my father's old Craftsman power tools from the 1960s. They are made of solid aluminum, and have replaceable brushes for the motors.

Rush Limbaugh sounds awesome on my 1984 spec General Electric "Superadio II" jobsite radio. It has an sensitive AM tuner/antenna, and the mono two-way speaker is tuned for a deep male voice. Bob Uecker, the legenday Milwaukee Brewers announcer also sounds amazing on this GE Superadio II.

At home I rock a 1989 Yamaha 50watt 2 channel receiver and 1973 spec Yamaha NS-670 monitors and some 1986 Yamaha monitors too. I have mid grade Sansui and JVC turntables from the late '80's too.

I use a Stir Crazy, and a table top fan regularly that are over 30 years old. Still work great. Yamaha stereo receiver over 20 years old.
Nothing is built to last anymore.

Also, guys, it's time to put the VCR's out to pasture.

My Grandma gave me a clock radio in 1975, and I still use it to this day. Its digital, red number display. Keeps perfect time. Wakes me up every morning.
