I was a ...I remember the first time I fell in love. I was a very young little girl and it was at my grandparents home. It was their chambers stove. It seemed to be larger than the ones I’ve seen but it was all copper and stainless steel. It is one of my biggest regrets not claiming it when my grandparents died. I was just twenty and to afraid to speak up. I am sure that people can relate to a family of vultures. I was the closets to them then anyone in the world and yet I was terrified of the rest of the families greed. To this day at seventy I still miss the memories of living a considerable amount of my life with them and cooking on that stove. As a child I didn’t like beans but when my grandfather made them they were the best. Great memory to this day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279311869237231755.post-79285306499696361542018-04-30T09:56:25.835-04:002018-04-30T09:56:25.835-04:00I love the fact that the stove has a porcelain top...I love the fact that the stove has a porcelain top. . . easier to maintain than the chrome and very clean looking!bluelotushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01187984320091551638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279311869237231755.post-82620803056895071882015-12-20T18:55:47.962-05:002015-12-20T18:55:47.962-05:00I truly can't recall the name, but these are r...I truly can't recall the name, but these are rather uncomplicated stoves so any old-timer should be able to do it.There's a place in NY called Belgrove Appliances that specializes in vintage stoves.

After we had our moved from Long Island to Brooklyn, and it was installed, it wasn't working properly. I called an appliance repair place from the yellow pages (remember those, pre-Google?) and asked them to send out their oldest repairman. Sure enough, the old guy recognized the Chambers immediately and solved the problem in minutes (the tube that connects the pilot to the burner had shifted).<br />@Margaret: Now that's a challenge.

I bought one off craigslist and have been refurbishing it since. Mine is just like yours but yellow. I can't wait to move it out of my garage and into the house to start cooking. Those websites devoted to chambers stoves chambers rangers and chambers commune were really helpful in the restoration. And they have recipes for cooking with the gas turned off.Eliza Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07711467070596151529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279311869237231755.post-33955343382290722612010-02-10T21:39:16.802-05:002010-02-10T21:39:16.802-05:00god forbid our daughter shouldn't have an omel...god forbid our daughter shouldn't have an omelet in the middle of a blackout!!! egads!!Paul LaRosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09803365823128935777noreply@blogger.com
