how long before they take on a busted mobile phone?
It's a bit mean criticising...it meant something to them. It's not just about age or value.
They did a smashing job. saved it from landfill and brought memories back.

I love seeing how everyday things work too.

I used to cuddle a food mixer - got me where I am today!
I can't help wondering, if these items mean so much to these people why do they let them get into such a state.

You and I are lucky then, some items break down.
These items may have been inherited and their original owners not aware of how much they meant to other members of the family.
I just don't think some viewers quite get the premise of the programme - I love it.
