We bought our stove used about 5 years ago. It has worked fine, we have replaced coils in the oven already, so I contimplated a new one when the upper stove coils started burning out. But when I did I found used ones costing still in the $350 to $450 range and we could not afford that. So for less than $100 we got the right coils and drip pans and with a little cleaning on the unit itself, it looks almost like a new stove! What a deal! Thanks!
