Well I finally found a stove that I am looking for, and, in lovely brown!
Are any of our members close to Ottawa? I e-mailed the seller a couple days ago asking if they would consider shipping over to Hamilton, Ontario, but I have not heard back. I just can't take a road trip right now...I wish they would communicate so we could hammer out some details. Anyway, here are some pictures and a link to the Kijiji ad.

That's super cool. I presume these were only in Canada, because I've never seen one in the US? It seems to have an automatic oven too! |

I am having trouble seeing the advantage of this when you could do the same functions with countertop appliances, but you found what you wanted so congratulations. |

Hope you got everything worked out for this, wish you luck if not.
It looks awesome! and what a cool little appliance... I've been looking for something like this too.
I can see the usefulness in it because of my own situation. I live in a renovated home in an efficiency basement apartment. There is only one 220v outlet available, The outlet is in an area set up for a washer and dryer so of course I'm using it for my Maytag set.
The home owners won't allow the installation of additional 220v outlets (they say they are at max allowance for the household) The house is all electric (heat etc.) and they won't allow a gas tank installed outside (there is no local natural gas line as it's a rural area) for a gas oven... to be fair I wouldn't want a gas oven in a basement anyway.
All things considered, it limits possibilities. Currently I have a hot plate as a stove top and a large toaster oven that serves my baking needs but something like this, that can run on 110v and is a self contained unit that just happens to have a ton of vintage appeal, would be awesome to find.
Wondering if America had made a similar version back in the day.
If you do get this beauty later on, would you mind sharing the manufacturer/model info? |

Guy... Thanks for the manufacturer info. In the US, Danby is well known for compact size appliances, like mini fridges, kegerators and apartment sized ranges. So that makes sense considering the compact size of yours.
Good luck on the rec room project.
Tom... Thank you for the tips. I never thought about trying to use the single 240 outlet as an interchangeable option, worth a try to rearrange things and get the outlet accessible. The only downside being my own laziness, all that plugging and unplugging :)
I have an oversized toaster oven so it does the job, but to be honest I'm not exactly a baker anyway. haha. I use my Air Fryer and Microwave more often than the hotplate or toaster oven.. but I've always thought I'd like the real thing (cooking stove) in there.

However,
Guy, did you ever get your oven you wanted?
Even with all the good advice and suggestions from Tom and Fan-of-Fans I've still looked around for one of these since we all initially were discussing this. Hard to get an idea out of your head sometimes, so every few months I'll look again for 110v stoves. I recently landed on this Kijiji listing for a vintage model model made by 'Superior' that you and TurquoiseDude talked about in another thread on the same subject. I figured I would pass it along here as both of you have posted to this thread and might find it interesting or may even be able to grab it up if it's local enough.
It looks like the ad is still active and was only posted a little over 2 weeks ago. I realize the timing sucks with Covid restrictions and the seller not willing to ship but vintage coolness like this only pops up now and then and wanted to share the link either way.

Description reads: "Kenmore 110volt 2-burner with oven. It works. Plugs in to any household outlet Super unique old appliance from the 1950s - Regina, SK Canada "

I'm always interested in unusual appliances like this. Anyone know what it was in Canada that created the demand for this? Jim |

Well, parts of Canada has lots of vacation cabins, so maybe in those. They may not have been wired for 240 volt service, or used a small generator for power if they were very remote. |
