Some of ours are well past that...
Miele dishwasher approaching 22 years, has needed a bit of PTFE tape on a solenoid O ring, a new seal on the rinse aid dispenser, and the lower spray bar has a shim under it as it is worn out and catches on the inside! Just waiting for it to give out...
Bosch washing machine 10 years old, I've put a new pump in it - and the door hinges are a bit worn so you have to lift it to close it (we have 2 boys now 11 & 14) so it's been used a lot! Could do with new drum dampers, but not worth the spend - waiting for it to get worse / the door to fall off before replacing.
WhightKnight tumble dryer approaching 15 years old - again been used a lot! I've repaired the drum spider after the rivets broke, and it's had a new condensate pump. This might be on the critical list - the plastic housing / duct inside the door has gone all brittle, and I suspect a new one is not available, and even if it was would be a good chunk of the cost of a replacement.
Argos freezer, also approaching 15 years, no issues, suppose it will stop one day!
