Some of the HEAVIEST sets I ever worked on were Magnavox.

As for living a long life, my cousin had a 1967 Maggie rectangular set that never saw service until 1991, when I replaced the vertical output tube. All the other tubes were Maggie branded. I know this set saw daily use all those years.

A lightning strike on the tuner finally killed it. It was starting to look dull and smeary by this time.

The other Maggies usually had bad flybacks that were a bitch to find.
