About ten years ago my mother ended up buying a restored 1939 chambers gas stove. I remember we had one growing up as well.
This thing was as heavy as a tank but nothing bought today could compare with the quality.
It had a built in griddle and deep well etc. You could turn the oven off early and it stayed hot for a long time.
She paid about $700 and it is now worth a lot more.
70 years and works great!
My mom passed away 2 years ago and my cousin wanted the stove. I know it will be used for a long time to come.
They just do not make things to last anymore unless you go to something commercial.
