It's cool that the coffeemaker has been there for you for so long - and with sentiment attached!
It's a toss-up. My glasses - these aren't the same pair, but I've had a pair since I was in first grade, and I can't imagine what I'd have done without something to correct my vision.
My mandolin; it's not the same one I've had since college, but it helps me to make music and that's probably saved my sanity (helping to deal with depression issues.)
My car and computer also both make a big difference in my life and my ability to work and to participate in my community.
