Looks like a great stove, Sue. Certainly has all the bells and whistles I
would want. May I ask what brand it is?

It does sound nice. Our neighbors got a really nice new stove, too, and
now I'm having appliance envy. Sigh.

The ice cream/granola/chocolate thing sounded good, too...

Reminds me of the gorgeous stove my mother-in-law has and does not
appreciate. She stores her bakeware in the oven... The

most part.

LOL! No wonder I like it. We've been shopping Kenmore for all the kitchen
appliances in our new house (hopefully in September). I picked a model
with all the same features as yours, but all electric. We're in a no-gas
community. Coincidentally, we are also getting black.

Enjoy!!!

Wow, great stove. Quite an investment too, by the looks of things. Is
it the Kenmore Elite? (I did some searching and found a pic of one that
looks like yours). The one I saw was priced at around USD1650. We don't
get Kenmore here, AFAIK, and the closest thing I could find here was a
General Electric and that was half the price (if you do the conversion
to our local currency).. Mind you, gas cookers (in homes) are not as
common here as in the States and UK, cos we have very little "piped
gas" in our suburbs. Most people I know have electric.
Anyway, enjoy yours, it sure looks fancy

I'm jealous! I have to rely on my old apartment-issue 4 burner electric
stove/oven. I'm used to it but it would be so nice to have something
better! Enjoy!

Excuse me, but where do you store your bakeware and other stuff, such
as your large rolling pin, your meat tenderizer, your meat grinder, etc.?

I have a stove with two ovens, one on the bottom and another one on
top. The one on top is for baking and roasting and such, the one on
the bottom is for storage. That is the reason two-oven stoves exist,
isn't it? Do you mean to imply that there are kitchens that have
enough storage space outside the oven? Nah, that couldn't be. At
least not in New York City.

do you mean the drawer on the bottom of the stove? that is not what i am
talking about. on her birthday, she asked me to make her some "BBQ"
wings. so i did, and when we got to their house, i turned on the oven to
warm them up, and she flipped out- she rarely uses the oven, so she
keeps her cookie sheets and stuff in there. I am not talking about an
apartment in any city. this is a decent sized house in suburban detroit.

It drives me absolutely nuts when my dearly beloved puts something
(ususlly a cookie sheet) into the oven instead of putting it away -
because it's not my habit to *check* the oven before turning it on.

No. I think Margaret was making a joke - as in she has a regular double
oven - cooks with the top and stores her pots and pans in the bottom oven.
LOL

I've had 2 double ovens that had also had a storage drawer... LOVED it!

No, my stove has two gas ovens. There is a regular one on the bottom,
with a broiler unit. Below it is a drawer and I use both for storage.

Above the bottom oven is the stove with four gas burners, regular size.

Above that, is another gas oven, which is probably slightly smaller
than the lower one. I could have had a microwave in its place, but
microwaves are too newfangled for me. )

Since it is easier for me to reach the top oven instead of bending
down to the bottom one, I like that set-up very much. It is a
Caloric, probably about twenty or so years old. The one before was
almost exactly the same, only an older model.

I believe that Barbara saw it and can tell you that this is really
what I have, two ovens in one stove and the lower one chuck full of
bakeware and other cooking necessities.

Sorry, but this sounds like a very lame excuse. Come to think of it,
Texas is BIG. For all I know, you may have an oven, a stove and a
microwave and who knows what else in your kitchen. I had to return a
beautiful set of pots and pans, because the handles were too long for
my cabinets and even if the handles had been shorter, there were not
enough cabinets for the whole set. (

Yes, it's a Kenmore Elite. The one you saw was probably stainless
steel, which is more expensive. Still, you're right, it was quite an
investment- there goes my tablet PC! I did about 6 mo of research
into what I wanted, then waited and watched and waited and watched
until Sears had a sale and other incentives, then I pounced :>

The comparable GE model (right next to the Kenmore in the display
area) was the same price, however it had a second oven where I have a
warming drawer. What sold me on the Kenmore was the bridge burner,
which I call a "pancake burner." I have a griddle which spans two
burners. The area over the burners is fine but the area between the
burners is not hot enough for pancakes. I've never (yet) wished for a
second oven but I have wished many times that I didn't have a cold
spot in the middle of my griddle!

Strangely enough, the installer said Darth is popular with Chinese
customers, for whom the power burner (17K BTU) is still not hot
enough. The bridge burner is 3 x 9 = 27 BTU with all three, and 2 x
9= 18 BTU when the back double burner is on.

I do wonder how important the simmer burner will be. All of the other
burners, even the power burner, seem to go down reeeeeaaally low
without the flame going out. But that might change when I get into
some real cooking with the range hood on.

It's still too hot (and I'm working late for a couple of weeks) to
give it a serious workout.

That area is the best preserved of the floor. The rest is in pretty
bad shape :< But that and the counters will have to wait a few
years. I got Darth now because my other range was rusting away before
my eyes. It was propped up with a wood shim on one side after the leg
fell off when we moved it to install the range hood! And shedding
mounds of rust dust.

If it's ailing, you have a good excuse to get a new one! I could only

It sounds like the electric GE stove we bought in 1974. It was still
working just fine when we sold the house last year. The new owner did
not seem to be in any hurry to get rid of it.

Yup, it was the stainless steel one, now that I had a closer look... but
the black ones are just as nice, so you have a good time with your new toy!

Actually, I much prefer the black over the stainless steel, price
notwithstanding.

Me too. And I still think she made a very good investment. I would have
to save up for a very long time to get something that nice. Jealousy
strikes again!

I understand that! We're not long on funds ourselves. Even though I know
we probably shouldn't, we're having all the appliances for our new house
written into the whole deal. We just don't have the money to buy them
apart from building the house. I guess that's not too bad really, because
we'll get an allowance for the builder grade appliances that would be
included.

Years ago, when we built our first home (from scratch), the building
company gave us all sorts of allowances (included in the overall
cost)... so much for the building, the light fittings, the bathroom
fittings, plumbing etc. But... you could "juggle" things around a
bit... so I landed up with a really great kitchen, and the bathrooms
weren't bad either... We paid a little "extra", but good appliances are
a must.. My first "new" stove was great! It was worth it. Hope you
enjoy your new home..
Cheers

Only the one in my house. And I was kidding about the closets, too.
