I don't know if it can be repaired or not, but it is getting extremely difficult to turn the oven on. (It is so old, that you have to light the pilot light on the oven after you turn on the gas.) I thought we could just get a new stove. I couldn't believe how expensive 36 inch stoves with only four burners are. I don't want six burners. I'm short on counter space, so I need that space on top of the stove to be open. I can't imagine cooking on six burners at once anyway. I saw a couple of 36 inchers on line, but I find it hard to take the plunge to buy a stove online, sight unseen. I plan on keeping whatever my next stove will be for the rest of my life. Online stove buying makes me very nervous. Plus I am a little sentimental about this old stove. I've been cooking on it since 1978. That's a little nutty, isn't it.<br /><br />I hope I do as well as you did when I finally take the "new stove" plunge.susie @ persimmon moon cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01653330247272673990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4059935180600513762.post-44100395464163173732015-11-04T17:18:58.166-05:002015-11-04T17:18:58.166-05:00I'd call that a bargain.

At the beginning of the summer, I got all new appliances mostly in the effort to get rid of that blasted black glass top stove that was in the house when we bought it. I wound up getting a gas stove with convection oven, even though we had to run the gas line and add a 110 plug. Loving it.

I have a relative (who shall remain nameless) who spent $7,000 (yes, that's what I said) for a new stove when they moved into their last house. A few months later, they had a mouse in the house who very inconveniently died in the broiler of said pricey stove. This relative said since she couldn't get the dead mouse smell to go away, she wanted to replace the stove. With the same make and model. And did. Same relative and husband eat out most of the time. Just sayin'. :o]Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4059935180600513762.post-76091602910341852812015-10-31T11:49:39.931-04:002015-10-31T11:49:39.931-04:00I had a glass top stove and wasn't crazy about...I had a glass top stove and wasn't crazy about. I always seemed to be cleaning it and you know how when you are say, boiling potatoes for mashing? Sooner or later it overflows because you might have been pouring a glass of wine or something critical. There is no where for that starchy water to go but the cooktop so it cooks on and makes a horrendous stink. Later you would be scrapping it off, drinking more wine and muttering a lot of potty mouth words. So. I think you were very smart ��Katie C.noreply@blogger.com
