36" Gas Hi-Low Range Hi Robert, I guess you are kidding about wanting a Summit or Danby range, but you are about right that this O&M is not much of a range, when this thing is crushed and made into a new Kia no one will ever miss it except Southern Cal Gas Co when its four constant burning pilots are turned off for good.
By the 1970s there were not many great gas ranges left, all the serious money was on electric ranges by the time.

But amazingly clean. Maybe it belonged to wealthy snow birds who did not use it much. I would hate to have to crawl under that upper oven to set the clock/timer. | ||

The best! Burners ever thought up, Those are Tappan designed Sizzle/Simmer burners, the flame comes out in a continuous sheet around the burner, Very high output but can be turned down to a bare simmer, This would go in my kitchen for sure | ||

36" Gas Hi-Low Range It would look a whole lot better without that oven on top.
The ovens do appear to have removable Continuous Clean panels on the side walls and back.
I remember friends that had a Tappan gas stove with these silly burners, as they aged they burned very unevenly with much of the flame on one side.
The advantage that Tappan was trying for was to get away from the user having to clean all the little holes that get clogged when you have a spill-over, the chrome cap just lifted off to make cleaning easy.
Well it didn't not pan out well and Tappan went back to multi-port burners that worked much better and the rest is history.
