I've got this little plastic foot stool that's probably older than I am. It's not as strong as it used to be (legs buckled with me on it once), but it's holding up a speaker and doing a great job of it.

I was using a Bose Wave radio as my desktop speakers since 1997 until this summer. It sounded fantastic. One of the speakers started getting a little buzzy at higher volumes a few years ago, which was still fine for normal daily use, until I got back into playing music. Now it serves as our record player speakers but we don't use that often.
Daily basis is what makes this so hard for me. I think you just made me realize I need to change my toothbrush soon.
There's literally nothing else I use every day without fail. Closest would probably be my around-the-house belt, but I don't always put it on. My phone is fairly new still...
Not as long as you, but I've had my wireless earbuds for around four years now and they still get daily use. I can use them both to listen to music while I play my drums and to watch videos or listen to music while my husband is watching tv or whatever, they're fantastic.
I've been using the same pocket knife for about 15 years. Part of my EDC.
Some of my kitchen stuff, hand tools and a few ornaments come from my grandparents place. Ive been handling/seeing them my whole life. Add x years to that before me.
Probably my Whip it! Butane torch
Bought my ridge wallet in 2015 and use it every day. Replaced parts on that sucker a few times bcz the straps wear out and screws come lose and fall out. Only nearly lost it once.
Second iitems are a safety razor handle and brush I got in 2008.
