I ran into this today and picked it up for some reason. Didn’t realize what it was until I got it home. I don’t know much about the cooking stuff, mainly washers and dryers so I’m positive someone here can tell me about this.

This is what I was going after and really didn’t need it either. NOS I believe it’s a rangeaire made by GE.

 The 36" coppertone hood is intended to be installed with a companion cooktop with a plug-in connector that joined the two. Your hood is a "deluxe" version, and includes controls for a Sensi-Temp burner on the cooktop. Was the cooktop not present when you bought the hood?
The avocado hood is from maybe the 80's maybe - after the time that GE and Hotpoint began to share a lot of items. Notice that the hood does not say that it is GE, simply says it is a quality product manufactured by GE. It can/was also sold as a companion item in Hotpoint settings. Same thing happened with their garbage disposals; they no longer claimed to be GE products, but were a quality product, blah, blah, blah. Still - that's a nice hood.

Thanks for the information. The woman said she picked both of them up from a yard sale where apparently no one wanted them. The cooktop May have been at the sale but she said she never saw it as I sent her a picture of what one looks like. After I bought the avocado one I told her how much I liked the colored appliances and she told me she had the coppertone hood as well. I picked it up for a whopping $5.

The Coppertone hood with surface unit controls was used with certain models of the GE Mark 27 drop-in range, in addition to the built-in cooktops as Lawrence mentioned. One of my neighbors had one like that- theirs was Avocado. | ||

GE Range Hoods With Surface Burner Controls Built In Hi Melvin, I have had this exact hood with built-in burner controls in our weekend home for 30 years [ except ours is brushed chrome ]
It has been a wonderful cook-top to cook on, it is easy to use and keep clean and very logical in its layout.
I think I still have a number of extra CTs and connecting cables if you want to use it somewhere.
I don't think this particular hood was ever used with the Mark '27' drop-in-ranges [ I never saw one with 3 size SAT element ]
I believe that GE actually still built the avocado hood as well as the earlier CT hood, the earlier CT hood was built from around 1963-6, the avocado hood was built in the late 70s into the 80s.

GE Range Hoods With Surface Burner Controls Built In I found the hood and CT at a thrift store a little over 30 years ago, but they did not have the required connecting cable so I told them it was useless except for parts and they sold it to me for $10.
A week later I was in the same store and they recognized me and said they had found the cable and gave it to me, so as we built out the kitchen I installed this CT.
I can not imagine how many hundreds of hours we have cooked and canned on this great CT, I would never consider replacing it.

This is a GE JH96 hood to be used with a GE JP86 cooktop with a Sensi-Temp burner. 2 fan speeds. This combination only! Not for use with a Mark 27! One hi-speed small burner. Sensi-temp was 2800 or 3200 watts. I grew-up with this! Greg | ||

When I had my catering thing, I came across two of these, and both of the clients thought it was a great idea, in that it was a way to keep the cooktop controls out of the way of small children Lawrence/Maytagbear | ||
