Is newer than the oven, but leagues ahead of the modern sealed burners sold today. |

Not much. In fact, they're one step away with the vestigial disadvantage of being harder to clean. I'd be surprised if any of these burners could push more than 8000 btu's. This was a cooktop sold in the '70's long after Caloric had been acquired by Raytheon and re-born as ordinary. What a tragedy.
It's as if the nation forgot how to cook during the 1960's. |
