Mine… My Xbox 360 slim only costed 129 euro back in 2012 and to this day still work like brand new, you would think that the disc drive would stop working but no. Never had the need of open it or clean it’s insides. Still great, I just don’t use it anymore since I feel it’s outdated and loading speeds are better nowadays.
My old roommate got a window air conditioner for $20. I got about 15 years of use out of it until I had the windows replaced on the house and it didnt fit anymore. I sold it for $50.
Old AC’s and Fridges work forever. Probably horrible for the environment, but they work.
I sometimes wonder how much of the “power efficiency” modern appliance manufacturers trumpet is completely annulled by the fact that they have 30% the useful lifetime of their less efficient ancestors.
The best appliance for the environment is still the one you already have.
Sometimes yes, sometimes no
Unless you have to refill their ozone-killing stuff for them to work properly.
Only when they leak or get thrown out. If they’re still working they’re not leaking, but maybe drawing more power than needed.
The power draw of old refrigerators is like 5-10 times higher than a modern one.
Oh yeah that’ll do it.

The biggest change when we got new window AC units was how much more quiet they are.
