Of all the different sets I've owned, the Zenith b/w sets from the late-50s through the early-70s are what I've found to be the most reliable televisions overall.
I just got a 1952 RCA black and white console I am starting to dig into. It will be interesting to see how reliable it turns out to be.

I will probably be selling the Zenith roundie very soon as I promised my wife if I bought the RCA I would sell the Zenith. Not much room to accumulate sets around here.
