I wonder if they ever put them into those motel rooms with kitchenettes? I
never stayed in one back in the days when these things were made. The more
modern kitchenettes I've seen all had full size appliances.

What I find interesting these days is Viking (and I presume others) makes a
small 24 inch range. I guess those are for people remodeling their miniscule
kitchens in older apartment buildings in NYC and elsewhere. I guess people
still want that kind of thing in an upscale apartment, even if it has to be
a "scale model"! ;-)
