I'm considering one of these units for my kitchen. There is one for sale a couple hours from me, but it's a 30" model, and I want a 40". Any of you got one you'd consider parting with? Reference pic of a 40" width one attached

The exhaust system primarily is the reason I want one of these. I love Frigidaires, and Flairs in particular....but have never been able to commit to buying one for all the well-known reasons. The 40" Hallmark is the only thing that appeals to me both for the exhaust setup up AND the burner layout. As I mentioned, there is a 30" model out here by me but it is ridiculously expensive, and not the width I want. I'd sure appreciate being kept in the loop should any of you discover a 40" being available! Question: what is a fair and reasonable price for a 40" Hallmark in ready to use condition (or in need of only minor stuff...?).

Allen,
Those Hallmarks are beautiful ranges, and I agree, more desirable than a Flair and much harder to find. I've got a 1960 Tappan Fabulous 400 which I also like more than a Flair. It does have a ventilation system, but I haven't used it yet so I can't attest to the kind of job it does. |

These are by far the best of the High-Oven ranges ever built for many many reasons.
The ventilation system alone is superior to any other system I have ever seen on any other range ever.
Then you have two large burners in the front and two 6" burners in the front as well as two in the back and you have two 4" burners in the front, so you really have have 8 different size elements.
You also have closed-door broiling with the smoke and vapors vented outdoors.
And an easy clean interior with removable Teflon coated panels that you just wash off in the sink, so it is by far the easiest to clean Hi-Oven range oven.
I have a bunch of parts for one of these HP-HM 40" ranges if someone needs them.

Ralph, I *just* received and replied to your email. THANK YOU for alerting me, and I am sorry to be so late in realising anyone had tried to get my attention! Have been busy with the new house and totally ignored my AW habit and emails as well. Ralph, I emailed you my direct contact info (cell/txt) which is about the only way anyone gets me these days! To everyone else--many thanks to Kevin, John, Hans and the two sellers in Ohio and Colorado. I shall contact you both via email in case you aren't checking in here much. I so appreciate everyone's input, and apologise for seemingly being dead or ignoring folks!
Best, Allen |
