Of all older machines I think most here would have agree that the most long lived/durable machines would have to be center dial Maytags.
My model A207 is from June of 1976, 41 years old currently, and has likely seen daily service for most of that. Everything looks original, it even has (quite obviously) seen time in a damp basement but on it still goes. I wouldn't be surprised if it outlived our new Speed Queen. |
