  1. .... arrived last week! Unfortunately, it's been too hot for me to
    have much interest in food other than ice cream (coffee ice cream,
    French vanilla granola, and chocolate syrup).

    Here's a photo of the little guy. I've named him Darth:

    Convection oven, bridge burner, simmer burner, power burner,
    self-clean, slow-cook, warming/proofing oven... and heavy breathing :>

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

    He's a Kenmore.

    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 🙂
    Cheers

    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!

    Reminds me of the gorgeous stove my mother-in-law has and does not
    appreciate. She stores her bakeware in the oven... The
    celebrity-endorsed stainless pans sit in the cabinet unused, for the
    most part.

    There is no justice in this world.

    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. :o)

    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. :o(
