It's a Chambers gas stove from the late 40's or early 50's. Don't
know where they got the one on her show but, there are many companies
that deal in vintage stoves. Here are the three websites I like the
most:

www.antiqueappliances.com
www.antiquegasstoves.com
www.vintagestoves.com

Also, you can almost always find Chambers stoves on eBay. Hope that
helps.
