A 1930s era Sunkist Juicer. That thing is still chooching along and just juiced enough key limes for two pies last night.

I recently bought a 1970s Sunbeam food processor to replace my broken modern one. It's so incredibly quiet that I thought it was broken as well until I tried it out grinding stuff and found that it was even better and faster than the modern one. It is much heavier, though, and a pretty ugly shade of '70s yellow.
