Shock and Awe

I was surprised to learn Frigidaire was still offering rotisseries this late in the double oven game.

Not to be Outdone

This microwave is also a convection oven and bakes with blended heat and microwaves.  It was the house prize from my Omaha sleep over.

Incarceration

I missed the n.  I am agreeably the world's very worst proof reader.  The range is model RCIE-75P made in March of 1969.  The rotisserie motor has a date of Oct/68 stamped on it.

Custom Imperial !!

My favorite! I only wish they still made these. One thing I was disapointed about regarding the 40 inch line of Frigidaire ranges was they never got a chance to introduce them with the ceramic top or the Touch N Cook line.This one has the "Electri Clean Plus" feature. I can see the removeable panels in the left oven.That was made before they changed the crown design on their logo.I remember their RSE36S,the 30 inch "Super" model, was rated number one in Consumer Reports for a few years in a row.I used to demo their porcelain drip bowels by placing an ice cube in it and putting a teapot on to boil. Once the whistle blew,I'd take a wooden spoon and lift up the Radiantube element to show the cube was still frozen.At taht time,most,if not all,the other brands had to use stainless steel drip pans to reflect the heat upward.The Radiantube elements were triangular type design that made the heat go directly up like a V.Great find!!I recomend grabbing as many triagle burner supports and porcelain drip bowels as you can find.
 
Late rotisseries?

My GE P*7 wall oven, all 27 inches of it, has a rotisserie motor and controls. And it must date from the 70's at the earliest (it was Harvest Gold until I replaced the front panel with brushed stainless I got off another P*7).

 

Alas, the rotisserie gear is missing... as is the temperature probe. Haven't been able to locate replacements. When I switch the front control to "Rotisserie" I can hear the motor hum but the square drive socket doesn't rotate - probably a frozen gear or something. The meat thermometer would be really nice to have, wouldn't it?
 
Storage For?

For the bread box of course which kept it from molding.  It was designed to hold the big broiler pan/roaster and the rotisserie pieces.  I'll put the cookie sheets there, ready for action.
 
The Probe

The temperature probe for roasting is a useful and very convenient thing to have.  I hope you're able to find it.  Have you asked Combo if he has one in his vast store house?  This one came with an extra rotisserie rod that is square if anyone needs it as the Frigidaire uses a hex shape.
 
Just beautiful Kelly!!! So will this range be replacing the Flair? The microwave looks great on you counter too.
 
That is one nice range!  Love the dual ovens

That is one pretty range, Kelly. I have service info if you need any. Does it all work? And the rotisserie too, good thing it's not in my kitchen, Terry would insist on using it with an enormous hunk of flesh!

The microwave looks good on the counter, does it all work OK?  The only compliment it needs is a NIB O'Keefe & Merritt microwave next to it!   (BTW, Bradley loves the Sunbeam 12, even took an extra set of bowls - another convert!)
 
You'll enjoy the rotisserie, I use mine mostly during the winter when I cna't grill outdoors. When I do a chicken it fills the house with a great smell, there is no doubt it will be tasty and juicy.
