I recently purchased an 85 year old California bungalow in the Long Beach, California area. Along with the home came a white Chambers gas stove. It has a high back, and the light still works. The porcelain on the stove looks perfect, no chips, etc. I've fired it up and it works really well, it needs a thorough cleaning and I'm sure it needs to be safety retro-fitted too. Unfortunately, the stove is just too darn big for my kitchen. I'd like to find it a new home if I could. If anyone here is interested, let me know.
Thanks!

Too big? Aw come on, you have to be kidding. You could buy another stove and maybe save 6", but why? Your stove sounds like a perfect compliment to your bungalow style house. And once you know how talented and diverse your Chambers stove is, you will understand what a treasure you have. There are some terrific people on this forum, and I would beg you to give us an opportunity to change your mind.
Can you explain why the stove is too big? Maybe we can offer up some space saving alternatives.

I'd like to know why you think you need to replace it - is there something functionally wrong with it?
Are you aware that you have the Rolls Royce of home cookstoves? If so, why would you want to go down to a new model which, at best, is not much more than a decent Chevy by comparison?

the chambers is the best you'll ever find and getting rid of one for a new stove is like trading in a flawless diamond for flawed diamond but the flawed stone is "new", hence "better". I design kitchens and i've never seen a kitchen that couldn't handle a 36" range. standard ranges are 30", surely there are another 6" of space for the chambers. if the stove is in place, what's the problem ? and if you are a real cook, nothing new will even get close to challanging a chambers.

How much do you want for the stove?
