cuz it is a "P*7" (self-cleaning oven), and it looks like the front, left hand burner has that button in the middle "sensi-temp" or "sensi-burner". and it looks like it has the meter for the probe for the oven.
i don't know all the right names, but i think i'm getting my point across of what i'm talking about?? LOL..... and it looks like it has big chrome trimming around the window in the oven door. i have a pretty good feeling that this is definitely a "TOL" ge stove and i'm guessing it is a 40 inch stove?? the only thing, and this is because i don't know any of the model numbers is that, i don't know if it is a double-oven or if the smaller oven on the left hand side, is just a storage area?? sandy can tell us exactly what this GE stove is!! hey sandy what is this stove here.......... |

The reason I mentioned what I did was because A) it looks like it's in uncontrolled storage now in the photo and B) it's a range made before central air conditioning became the commonplace it is today. It could have spent several years - maybe even ten or more - before it got into A/C.
None of this means I know anything is wrong with the range - it could be 100% functional and pristine underneath the dust. Proceeding with caution is all I'm talking about. |

No buttons - when did GE transition from buttons to infinite dials?

Sandy, didn't mean to question your judgement. I agree if it wasn't always in a conditioned environment that the high humidity could cause trouble. I know it made my aunt's new freezer look old fast, as it was in the storage room off the carport. |

GE began phasing in rotary controls across the line in the early '70s, though they began using them in the '60s. The 1972 catalog shows most units having rotary controls, but a couple of pushbutton units were still in the line.
CircleW: Just making sure I hadn't said anything that could be mis-understood as being prejudiced against the range for some reason. |
