Default Your longest-lasting SW receiver?

Just curious to hear about shortwave receivers that people have owned
that are their longest-operating receivers. How long did they last,
and are you still using them? Did they require major overhaul at any
point during their long lives?

Drake SSR-1 I got in 1974, but never used much except sporattically.
Replaced the pilot lights a couple of times and cleaned band switch once.
It still works pretty well.
