Are you in the market/ for a
new stove? U so, the first thing
you must decide is whether you
want an electric or a gas unit.
Then you must choose between
the various brands and features
that are available today.
Do yeit'vant a free-standing
stove, a built-in unit, counter
elements with a wall oven, or the
type that has ax oven above and
below? These are the questions
you must settle before making
your purchase.
Take time to compare prices.
The price. of stoves can vary from
store to store as well as from
brand to brand.
Besides the initial cost, you
might have to consider financing
it. The least expensive method of
paying of any appliance is to pay
cash. If you can get a discount,
so much the bdtter. If, on the
other hand', you plan to buy It
on credit, check what it will
cost to-- borrow the money (in
dollars and cents as well as in
per cent of interest), from such
sources as banks, credit unions
and finance companies and then
compare these rates with those
being charged by 'the store.
The majority of free-stand-
ing gas and electric models are
30 inches wide but they also come
in 24-inch widths. Some smaller
ones are also available in the
20 1/2-inch and 22-inch widths.
Features such as oven light,
oven window, oven.timer, minut-
eminder and raised edges to pre-
vent spills are generally consid-
ered standard equipment nowa-
days.
The elements, the porcelain
drip bowls and the chrome rings
should be conveniently removable
for easy cleaning.
Automatic oven timers are
now commonplace. --These allow
you to place food in the oven,
set it to start at a certain time
and leave the house knowing
things will be all right in the
oven department.
The oven timer is almost
universal and can be set to warn
you when things are “done".
Warning lights when the
elements are on and for oven pre-
heating are a necessity.
An appliance outlet is most
convenient -- especially When
it can be timed so that your
coffee can be ready and waiting
when you awaken.

Interior oven fishes can be
of either porcelain, enamel or
charges? Does Vie guarantee
cover delivery and hooking up of
the appliance? What charges
are you responsible icor? Keep
your guarantee handy • for easy
reference.
It is advisable to purchase
only stoves that have either the
approved label of Canadian Stan-
dards Association or the Canad-
ian Gas Association.
' Most manufacturers of kit-
chen stoves have their own
service cutlets in cities across
Canada. Check this out before
calling in a repairman. Read the
'instruction book carefully to
avoid unnecessary repair calls.
(It has been known for a consumer
to run up a $7.50 service charge
just to replace a fuse!) Keep
your appliance manual at hand --
it can help you get more value for
your money if you study it.
Before you- invest in your new
stove, it might be wise to get all
the available information 'you can
from various sources. Utility
companies have home economists
on staff 'to help you. Also get the
facts from the retail stores who
handle appliances. There is also
a buying guide on stoves available
on request and free in single
copies only from Consumers'
Association of Canada, 100 Glou-
cester St., Ottawa 4.

Removable liners of alumin-
um foil or Teflon-coated side
panels can assist in oven clean-
ing. The disposable foil liners
are quite expensive, but canpre-
vent a build-up on the oven walls.
They have to be replaced from
time to time. The Wien panels
offer easy removal of oven
grease -- they are removed
and washed in the sink. Care
must be taken not to scratch the
surface coating.
Self-cleaning ovens promise
to dominate the market in the
next few years. At the moment,
a self-cleaning oven costs from
$40 to $130 more than con-
ventional style..
• The current method of self-
cleaning uses temperatures of up
to, 900 degrees for a two-hour
cleaning cycle and requires only
the occasional removal of a re-
sulting fine ash. There is a
safety lock to prevent opening
the oven while it is dangerously
hot. It costs from five to nine
cents per cycle to clean but this 4fr
is less than the usual oven-
cleaning chemicals.
Many appliance guarantees
will use simpler, more straight-
forward language in the future but
in the meantime find out what the
guarantee actually includes. Does
