I can't imagine how these were sold to the average consumer - was this a commercial market product of Hotpoint's?

When I worked at Elgot(an appliance/air conditioner store in Manhattan), I remember one of the old-timers there telling me that GE used Hotpoint as a division for a lot of experimental products. This oven/stove is a wonderful idea, but I can see how it would have had very little appeal to the average housewife back in the day. It would have been a brilliant tool for catering, I agree. I would love to get this for a friend of mine, but it's not likely to happen. |
