Memories
I remember seeing this type of range advertised was I was a young boy.
It’s a Whirlpool Connoisseur.
I can still see the images of a cheerful housewife dressed in her apron pulling something delicious out of the oven.
This one was in my house when I bought it. I have to get rid of it because I’m updating the kitchen.
I kind of hate to part with it because it still works so well. I love the upper oven and use it almost exclusively. It’s smaller and preheats quickly and I like not having to bend over to get stuff in and out of the big oven which I’ve probably only used once in two years.
They don’t even make stoves like this anymore.
I posted signs on a few bulletin boards in the hope I can sell it for a few bucks and get somebody to take it away. I think it’s sort of a classic and I hope somebody else realizes that four working burners and two working ovens is a lot of stove for $100.
If I can’t sell it, there’s an appliance store in Bremerton that will take it if I deliver it to them. They used to pick up used stoves for free but with gas costing so much they stopped doing it for the time being.
Could you have gotten through your day without knowing all that?

Is this stove still available? Where is it located? If so I have other questions.

I have that same stove - does anyone have any idea what the model number is? If you can’t answer that do you know how to make the self cleaning feature of the lower oven work? Thanks for any help you can give.

My mother has one of these stoves that she wants to get rid of. She lives outside of Chicago. Please post if interested.
