Well, I am revisiting this one. My electric Jenn Air element caught on fire last night and now it seems the entire electrical system is all messed up. My husband told me this winter that this summer we would convert back to gas so it looks like we will be getting the gas line stubbed up to the kitchen and then look for a new gas range. We looked at some last night and there is actually a 5 burner that is still 30 inches wide. My husband liked that a lot. Timing is never convenient so it looks like we have to wait our turn for the plumbers to do stubbing and then wait to order the range and then wait to get the 220 volt converted to 110, oh my, talk about stress! I think I'll be cooking in my electric skillet or my grill. I don't dare plug the old range in to use the stovetop because there were all kinds of sparks last night. We don't know what brand to get because I can't pay so much--maybe $700 tops.
