My paternal grandmother's KitchenAid model K mixer she bought just after my grandfather returned from WW2. She gave it to my mother in the late 70's because she wanted a new one and the damn thing showed no signs of dying. My mother gave it to my wife about 15 years ago for the same reason.
We've bought some new accessories but that fucking zombie mixer will outlast the roaches.
Might be worth regreasing it, iFixIt has some good guides on that.
Those old KitchenAid mixers are beasts. I think they were still made by Hobart at that point and really built to last and easy to fix.
Those are the mixers of legends ๐ช๐งโ๐ณ๐ช
