Re: Link:

Hey! goatfarmer, the link isn't working, I keep getting a message on E-Bay, that the link isn't good. I've tried several times and even manually entering the link number, when I'm able to catch it on your link, even with going off the Club Site and establishing it again and again, but it still won't go to that link.

I tried to go onto E-Bay to locate the listing and I couldn't even locate it on Westinghouse.

Peace and Regards, Steve

In my opinion, Toggles-

VERY scary.

That is a museum piece, I think, and nothing more.

I did like the Westinghouse TOL ranges from the late 60s-early 70s, with the "No-Turn Speed Broil" feature. They also had very good self-cleaning, as well.

Those units are not that scary. The pan sits on the firebrick disk. The coils are down in the channels. The amazing thing is how much heat is stored up in the firebrick. When we first started traveling with my dad during the summer, we took our Kenmore corn popper and the stainless steel percolator. My mom would put the perk on the open coil element in the popper. When the coffee started perking, she unplugged the cord and there was enough heat to perk the coffee for the 8 minutes it needed to perk. If you read owners' manuals from stoves with these elements, the timing is amazing. After something came to a boil, they would tell you how long to cook it after you switched to low heat and then how long to let it cook with the current off.

We soon graduated to a two burner hot plate, one high heat unit (1100 watts) and one medium (550 watts). Mom was a wizzard on that thing. She knew just how much heat was needed and how long it would cook with the current off. Only a couple of times did she forget and turn both elements on at the same time and trip a circuit breaker in a motel room.
