The night before our Thanksgiving in early October our oven died.  The dial that sets the temperature broke.  It would turn on but you couldn't tell what setting it was at.  Eventually we figured out were to set it for most baking.  But then a few weeks before Christmas it started surging temps.  cold one min to hot the next.  We have already had the thermostat, 2 oven elements and many burners replaced on this thing...We decided not to try and have it fixed again.  There must be something wrong with it that causes the burners and thermostat to keep burning out.  We searched every were looking for used stoves.  We finally found one place.  They must be in high demand right now!  Dh looked and they had this very old yellow stove.  The store thinks it's from the 60's.  But I tell you it cooks better then any stove I've ever had!!  They sure made things to last back then.  It also has an extra broiler oven on top.  I LOVE it!!

This pic is just after dh brought it in the house.

First batch of cookies as a "test".  Bakes great!  My other stove was alway burning everything or under cooking.
