There's some at this online place where I found one for my old apartment range which was a Calorie range. o_O Yup, hard to find. Just get the range model number and you'll be able to find the right knob. It's Sears so you might be able to find them at their certified repair places.

I cannae find parts. The only range number I can find on the darn thing is 74551...I should just get my DIY on and make my own! Maybe use a bunch of wrenches and be industrial about it. I could crochet or knit some. Fashion some from tinfoil? This is dumb. Dumb stove. Hate.

It couldn't have gone far...

did it fall inside your stove top... there's a debris catch pan thing under the burners...

Go to one of those used/ old appliance stores... steal a nob. ;)

I just took some time to look AGAIN!!!! This is insane.
It was RIGHT THERE....then NOT. I know the kittehs
weren't responsible because Ive had the heat on all
day and they haven't left the registers(selfish heat hoes
they are) and I was alone in the kitchen. POLTER-GEESE!!!

steal a knob? O, you.

aleeka November 26 2007, 07:51:31 UTC

I'm just gonna have to help you find it. Sometimes a second pair of eyes help locate. I couldn't find the lid to a spice jar for the longest time tonight because I'd set it on top of another spice jar lid. Craziness.

Ok, borrow a knob then. :)

It's simple: you just switch the knobs around as you need them. Why does it always have to be ALL KNOBS, ALL THE TIME with you?

;)

The exposed metal has been really freaking me out. OCD. It is on the least used burned....the one with the smallest flame, and I dont cook hardly-ever with more than two burners, so....it isn't so bad. It's just ugly.

I called Sears, have a man with a southern accent helping me search for new ones. He totally "ma'amed" me. "You have yourself a nice evenin, ma'am!" GAH!
