This stove is 40 years old but it works. It would be good if you need one temporarily until you can buy or find a newer one. It has some wear and tear after 40 years, to be expected, but its free! We haven't used it recently because we got a new one when we moved but it worked great up until we moved. It was well taken care of and cleaned regularly inside and out, however alot of what is on the inside of the oven will not come off even after I scrubbed it with a brillo pad and degreasing soap. Remember, it has been cooking and baking for 40 years lol. I wiped it all off but you will have to do a more thorough cleaning as it has been out of use for a bit. There is one small hole under the top that has been there for the last 15 years and never been an issue. We just stuffed it tight with foil (shown in picture) It needs new dishes for the coils. You can have the old ones if you want but I would just buy a new set. Text is prefered when responding. Thanks, hopefully this stove can help someone out who needs one.
