Isn't this a microwave oven?
The ad suggests it's something else! "This is a very rare vintage 1968 "Electronic Oven" which was the precursor to the micro wave oven. The oven does work well and heats and cooks better than our new microwave. 15" D x 18.5" W x 14.75" H The model # is KSA-8093A. Please keep in mind that this oven weighs close to 75 lbs. and I am not kidding. The walls must be actually lined with lead. Note the aircraft window. The light, timer and bell all work. It is a real piece of Americana manufactured in Japan....." CLICK HERE TO GO TO ovrphil's LINK on Toledo Craigslist | ||

If it is a Monkey Wards, there is a good chance it was made by Tappan. | ||

Basic Wards MWO It is made in Japan, it has nothing to do with makers like Tappan.
If this oven cooks better than their new MWO they must have bought one of the $29 models. This MWO is probably only about 500 watts and probably only weights about 40 pounds.
Still it is probably well built and a little bit collectable if you are a MWO nut like me and others here. | ||

 It does remind me of a basic Tappan. This is the one still at use at work. That said I believe you John.

Basic Wards MWO Hi Will, while the Tappan MWO you posted looks similar [ many cars look somewhat alike for example, but are not built by the same company ] to the one for sale it actually does not appear to share any exact details, if you can snap a picture of the interior of the one you use at work and I think you will see they are very different units. | ||

And who made them for Tappan would be interesting to know too!
My 1971 Tappan Electronic Oven was made by Litton for Okeefe & Merritt (that's what the tag says!) and it already has a Japanese magnetron (Toshiba I think). I have seen larger Wards MW ovens that did look very similar to mine too!
