It's a thing of beauty, though presently needing some TLC in the form of stainless polish. Two ovens....swoon. BTW, the tiling behind the microwave will be replaced before the new microwave gets installed.

Im not JRC but that is a sweet new oven. Time to practice a Thanksgiving dinner.
What color tile are you putting up? I was playing with the idea of doing my backsplashes, and haven't decided on what I want yet.

I think I'll replace with the same white tile, but installed more skillfully. The former owner did a pee-poor job of it!
Our Canadian Thanksgiving is next month, but I believe we will celebrate at sonny boy's house. I have, however, tried out both ovens and every burner! Yowser. Love it.

drooling over the stove, lynn. Can't tell - gas or electric?

Both, NIK. The burners are all gas, but the ovens can be used as gas or electric.
Edited to add: I just noticed that you can almost see my paint cans 
to the right of the stove! I'm still finishing up the wall painting.

Nice one Lynn!
TR, that's half the size of the woodstove I cooked on in my hippie days up country. They are actually super efficient and have a compartment that heats water for washing.

TR, I grew up with a down-sized version of the one you posted. Heating the house and cooking the meals (including baking the bread) all in one.

Lola, my bottom oven is also electric/gas and convection/regular. My furnace is gas, so it was relatively cheap to convert from an old electric range to gas, which I always wanted.
And I love that the oven can be used for proofing bread and plate warming.

I know I showed you the store pics of the stove. I thought you might like to see it in situ. The kitchen is really starting to come together. I'll be glad when it's all finished.

jrc, I've been wanting to do this since I bought the house 6 years ago. I kept thinking I wouldn't stay there and what point would there be. Finally, I decided even if I don't stay there, upgrading kitchen and bathrooms adds value to the house. That's my justification, anyway! And I got such a summertime sale bargain on the appliances!

Oh, God, DS, I was waiting for someone to notice that--NOT! The S/O dropped and broke my lovely stainless timer. This monstrosity is what he replaced it with!
