Would it be worth it to pick this range up for parts? Hopefully this is my last question for a while: This is a craigslist ad for a $25 Frigidaire DeLuxe Electric range that is nearby. It says that the oven doesn't work, but that the burners do. Would this range be similar enough to mine that...

re: thermostat/broiler Thanks, combo52. The oven is coming up to temperature when it is preheated (and we're using the correct oven knob). So it looks like the thermostat is doing its job. If it doesn't we'll try adjustment before anything else. It's only losing heat when something is in it...

Thanks for the broiler info, Norgeway. I'll definitely check that out. Thanks, rp2813. The range we have has some minor scratches on the prep area, but overall it's in really good condition. And I think I've pinned down the model year. According to the Frigidaire Model Index and Identifier, my...

Well, the broiler is not working. Would fixing this be covered in one of the service manuals? Should I try to find a technician? (I am checking threads and the archives to see if any threads have been posted on the topic previously.)

Thanks moparguy (I'm not sure what typical etiquette is on these threads...some forums I'm on prefer replies that try to mention responders and I do want people to know how thankful I am since this is my first thread here, ever). It sounds like it can be dated pretty well to the first half of...

Hi, there! I live in PA, in a similar-sized house that cost a similar amount. We have electric baseboard heat in an all-electric house. We haven't had too many problems with power outages over the years, and we keep a kerosene heater on hand just in case. The only bad power outage we had we...

Tom, thanks for the info on the model and protector mat. I'm still having trouble placing it...it seems to have just about all of the features were available at the time, except the double oven. It has the single oven that can be turned into the wonder oven (though I think there is warping that...

Thanks everyone. I was just reading a manual I found online, that showed how to preheat by turning the oven to broil, then to the correct temperature. I also noticed that around this time there were models labeled (I) for Imperial, (D) for Deluxe and (S) for Super and I'm thinking that's what...

Sweet. Thanks so much. Oh...and does anyone know if it's still possible to get a thermostat for these, or if I am up to the mercy of craigslist/ebay? The oven works, but runs cold. The thermostat will probably eventually go.

Hi, I've been reading this forum for years, but today is the first day I've owned a vintage appliance and had the opportunity to share :). Today we picked up a Frigidaire RS-50 Electric Range with Radiantube element burners, the Thermizer where the deep well can also be used as a burner, a...
