Sears 1958 kenmore classic range. Everything works great. Clean. Any idea if this is worth any money?

Pretty, but . . . Clearly not from '58, more like about 10 years later. Looks like a fairly deluxe model and having the lower cabinet is a plus, but there's not a vast amount of interest in these Frigidaire Flair knock-offs. | ||

If it were closer.. I would probably pay no more than 75 to 100 for it. | ||

I suspect this is by Roper but might be wrong; John would know for sure. | ||

99.99 Percent sure its a Roper built range, most Kenmores were for many years. | ||

Kenmore Range
Yes Hans is correct and I will add my 1/10th of 1% to make it official, ITS A Roper and like so many ill-fated appliances of the past it has only survived because it saw very little use.
But I am really glad you posted it, it must be one of the only remaining ones in this condition, hopefully someone will want to buy it if you want to sell it. John L. | ||

If you look closely The doors seem to be sagging in the middle. | ||

Kenmore Range
Good observation Hans, these Roper built Hi-Oven ranges just had pot-metal door frames where the hinge pins were directly in the pot-metal and they used to wear very badly to the point that the user had to lift the doors when closing the door. We saw ones that wore so much that the doors actually fell off, these ranges were no where as well built as GE, Frigidaire, Hotpoint, and even Westinghouse.
But a cool trip down memory lane. John L. | ||
