Bikes: Several, mostly not name brands.

I've had two pumps for over 30 years now: a Silca track pump for Presta valves, and a Medai Top for Schroeder valves. I've had to replace the head gasket every few years on the Silca, and the hose once but otherwise it's held up fine and easily reaches 120+ psi with no problem. The Medai pump is still all original. I don't have as many wheels with Schroeder valves as I do with Presta valves, so it doesn't get as much use but still I'm impressed with how well it has aged.
