Turquoise 'instant built-in kitchen' - $75 - Cleveland, OH

[turquoisedude]

Well, OK, there's no dishwasher or fridge... LOL

 

BUT there's a nice GE stove top with controls on the vent hood, oven, and a double turquoise sink.   Not a bad deal for $75!

The hood...

and sink are definite keepers. Sink ought to bring 75 on its own if it is in any kind of respectable condition!

Isn't that GE Hood the type

which holds pushbutton controls for the cooktop? I've seen these in Phoenix Re-Stores once in awhile….almost always in wood tone brown.

Yes, the pushbutton range element controls are on the hood - the pictures don't show that, unfortunately.  I love that particular style!

Nice setup

I'm guessing 1962 or 1963. Obviously being offered by a member of a younger generation since they call the color 'teal'. IT'S TURQUOISE, MAN!

The oven has sort of a down-sized or squashed-up Dinner Dial control and roast thermometer so this a nice upper end cooktop and range. Those surface units have been used hard.

Those are nice. The oven is a rarely seen model, "sculptured" style handle with the full-width backplate, and different control panel layout than most. I'm thinking this oven is from either '65 or '66, as that trim style was introduced in '65, and Turquoise dropped in '66.

I've seen that type hood (used with the B.I. cooktops and Mark 27 ranges) in every color available between '60 & '80. Most of the people I know that have had the GE built-ins have had the hood-mounted controls, and most that had them on the cooktop wished they'd got the ones on the hood instead.
