WOW, well cared for. Love the 1958 knobs like on the laundry appliances. It even has the meat thermometer, must be an RI-39-58. | ||

Phil:
I'm not sure what you mean about the double doors needing more space - can you enlighten me?
This is a 30-inch range, which would make each door about 15 inches wide. That means each would extend out 15 inches from the range at the most when fully open. On a bottom-hinged, single-door 30-inch range, the door is usually something like 20 inches high, meaning that it extends out that much from the range when fully open. Am I missing something here? Enquiring minds want to know! :) | ||

There are two modes of thought that are probably unique to what I'm looking for...
1) I like a simple door action, just one movement, not two ..it's not that I couldn't deal with it, but I like the single hinge, single door. For appearance, I'll contradict myself and say, it's kind of novel-cool. 2) In the space I would need to put something like this, the right door opening would interfere with lane traffic, as the oven is located in a place where the doors would stick out where an entranceway exists. (tight quarters).. I'm thinking of a house that we'll have in the future, and stove ideas...for a smallish galley kitchen. I think remodel is in order... overall, I like the single door, single movement to enter and exit the oven more. But it's a BEAUTY all the above aside. | ||

Oh, Okay
Phil,
I'm not nearly so well-versed on Frigidaires as I am GEs, but I think those French doors are rigged so that when you open one, they both open, like the "magic" doors to the parlor at Monticello. Someone here will, of course, correct me if I'm wrong. :) But I can definitely see how they wouldn't work for every kitchen layout. | ||
