I like Bakelite for radios because of its durability against tube heat. It does not warp, brittle or discolor. The only thing Bakelite has going against it is its lack of impact resistance. I have several Bakelite radios and I really like them. I am just careful not to drop them or let anything bump against them. I am not too keen on Bakelite TVs as the sheer size of the cabinets and weight of the chassis seems to make them more prone to breakage.
