Almond isn't commonly seen in these models. It wasn't too many years after the color's introduction when GE started outsourcing the 40" ranges to WCI. | ||

"Power Saver"
While the term "Power Saver" was a great buzzword in the later '70s, it actually heralded the end of GE's most desirable feature - SensiTemp.
The "Power Saver" was nothing much more than the old three-size element used on SensiTemp burners, which could be adjusted to heat a four-inch, six-inch or eight-inch diameter of the burner, less the SensiTemp sensor and responder. It was actually a lessening of what had gone before, but only the most savvy consumers would have known in spite of the ad-speak that they were getting less than had been provided on previous models. Convenience outlets were also gone by this time. However, one new feature had been added - not that anyone I know is a fan of it. It was "Push to Turn" burner controls. HatehatehatehateHATE. | ||

Notice they have an oven dial on the Sensi-Temp switch, unless this was one of the very rare self-cleaning Sensi-Temp units or a Sensi-Temp that cleaned cookware. I don't remember reading too much about that. | ||
