Caloric Ultramatic - advice on year / model

[arrondissement]

Hello, I'm a new member. I'm in process of helping clear a relative's house and was hoping for advice on determining the year of the Caloric Ultramatic range in her kitchen, pics attached. My initial research seems to indicate early 1960s but I can't seem to find any matches that look identical. There is no 5th burner in the center, that is merely a cutting board on top.

Additionally, if any advice on what products are best to clean it safely, I'd greatly appreciate it. It was in use until a few years ago (I am sure it still works - it stopped being used because of its owners' health situation) and I'd love to get it back looking great again.

I'll be able to inspect it for model number this week and can report back. Thanks so much. Happy to have discovered this forum and may have additional discoveries to post.

best,
E

Caloric Ultramatic Heritige Series

 

 

It's a 1964 model. I restored one years ago. I made a whole series of threads on the process.

Another thread that is being rebuilt due almost to complete image loss and for the archives. This one will take some time to reconstitute due to it's size. Sadly, most of the comments will be lost since it would be far too time consuming to repost each and every one. When the rebuilding is...

Neat Caloric Gas Range

Note : It is not a good idea to put covers over the burners if you have the pilots lit, the covers do not allow the moisture put off by the burning gas to dissipate and will cause more damage to the burners and the underside of the cook-top etc.

 

Enjoy your range, John

Thank you John, much appreciated advice. This is an elderly relative's home so I will adjust next time I go. best, E
