My "new" Stove!

[thespiritof76]

Hey there,

So, since I have bought my house, and have a nice large kitchen. I have been looking into getting a much more deluxe stove. I have had my Leonard (American Motors/Kelvinator) for the last 6 years. I have not had any trouble with it, but it is the basic bottom of the line model. Only one convince outlet, no lights or timers or anything, plus I have wanted double ovens for some time. So I have been looking at things like Frigidaire Flair, and GE Americana, and Hotpoint Hallmark and such..Then after a while of looking, and thinking I pulled the trigger on this......

Boy am I glad I did! It is a Kelvinatior Tri-Leval model RF-99AMC. I am very pleased with this range! Im sure it is a top of the line model. Has not only double ovens, and oven lights, and a surface light, but also has the Pan O Matic burner (Much like GE'S Sensitemp), also has the automatic oven feature for the upper oven, and also has a built in Rotisserie motor. Everything seems to work. I am just so proud of this! Unfountantly the Leonard is going to be sold, I am not an avid large appliance collector, so I have no use for it.

So I do have two questions, I am just gonna try my luck here.

First, does anyone have an extra spit rod and forks for the Rotisserie?I think I found a set on Ebay that might work, but just thought I would check here first.
Also, does anyone have a meat probe for this?

secondly, does anyone know where I can get or does anyone have a Manual? Meaning a instruction manual. Just to read up and to be informed.

now for the pics! It sure looks at home in my kitchen...Doesn't it?

Nice.

But I could see a few scalded forearms reaching for the burner controls.

None the less, I always liked this style of range. GE Americana P-7 comes to mind as one of the first I ever saw.

Very nice! Happy cooking/baking.

Wonder if they manufactured it themselves or OEMed it from someone. Always thought that we'd see more Kelvinator up here in Detroit (given it's AMC origins)...they cobbled together a full line of appliances from their refrigeration origins.

Jae,

Great looking stove!
I hope you enjoy it!

I couldn't help but think that an "Americana" would be a good fit, based on your user name.
But this is a beauty!

Jae, I have a spit rod and forks plus a support to rest on a broiler pan that may just do the trick.  I will post a picture sometime next weekend when we get back from Spain.

I'm pretty sure this was manufactured in Kelvinator's range plant. They supplied a lot of electric ranges to Whirlpool, and also some under the Kenmore brand - especially the 40" models.
