Hi Sue, my grandmother’s stove (1920’s era) looked brand new and worked well (it was gas powered) into the 1980’s and 90’s. Just amazing! Cheers Pat
Those old pieces were built to last. 😉
I love those old kitchens,. They are the sort of kitchens you could happily spend most of your time in.
My great grandmother cooked on a wood burning stove like that yellow one until she died in 1965.
Some of the most beloved haute cuisine recipes were developed in the 19th century using wood and coal stoves. That says a lot for the versatility of those old ranges. 😉

Good morning, Massachusetts! ☺☺
Delightful Sue , so informative and enjoyable
Thank you. 😃😃
So enjoyed this, never knew there were so many different ranges. They are beautiful.
Last night I was talking to family about installing a small one or two hobb Marine stove for my new little house. Even priced the sardine, little cod, and halibut, which are not cheap but look yummy. You could not have this better timed, if I had helped and commissioned this topic. Thank you very much, well done and well said with excellent synchronicity timing. Big gratitude and I learned the word hob, for the top removable cook top circles.
Good luck with your search. I hope you'll consider an older model - they are gorgeous and eye-catching, and they can usually be brought back into working order for less than the cost of a new piece. 😉
I loved the wood stoves. They were massive grand masters in peoples’ kitchens. I grew up around rural areas so the kitchens were all rather large to massive and no one stunted in the size of their woodstoves. Cooking for large families and also heating a two story house during extreme winter necessitates large kitchen wood stoves. Many people still used their wood stoves in the 60s and loved them so much that all that happened is that they ended up at the cabins.
That cream and green stove had the same colors as my father's 1960's Buick Sedan!
Mine, too!
raffinataonline.....I remember I was in early high school and the steering wheel was as big around as a garbage can lid, and sounded like a truck when you started it. It just purred! I wanted him to save this car for me for when I learned to drive!(in 4 yrs!) He needs did, he built me a car from 2 used cars( one had a good engine, and one had a good body) and gave it to me as a graduation gift! God Bless! (he was an auto mechanic)
@@LLjean-qz7sb Ours was a '56. Same colors. Those cars were 🥰. He kept it pristine. No power steering, of course. 😂

This must be the week that I am catching 'all things ranges'.
I just caught up with Farmhouse Vernacular, and she just bought a Viking range for one heck of a deal.
I have been loving the series you do, taking us through history.
I really wish unfitted kitchens would make a comeback. They look like they would be so flexible.
There was a brief period about 20 years ago when the "furniture" look was appearing in high end designer kitchens, but sadly it didn't last. Those kitchens had cabinetry that resembled dressers or hutches, often in different finishes or colors, and the only remnant of that look that has stayed with us is the upper cabinets having differing heights to make them look less monolithic. It's too bad because you could design a unique and attractive kitchen using furniture pieces collected from thrift shops or as hand-me-downs, but no one seems interested in doing that... 😧😧
I’m doing it! I have one custom cabinet going in with the sink and the dishwasher but everything else is unfitted. I’m having so much fun. So far I have my mothers hutch, a huge Victorian (1835) armoire, a small bookcase someone made out of packing cases, and a marble topped Victorian dresser. About 12 feet of wall to go😎 I’m buying a used electric stove with coils.
Hello Sue and Audie! Am watching on the TV, throne parlor stoves are all so interesting. I do like the 1st one shown. I guess I never asked what your plans are for the schoolhouse; the kitchen model is nice. Of course Ezra is a beauty 😍. Oh I understand the picture of the baby by the stove with the mom cooking but I was concerned the babe could reach over & get burned. Very interesting change from cast iron to enamel. I do like the green & cream combo in color. Thank you Brenda for sharing a picture of your stove. Chris' stove is also lovely. I wonder why they changed the colors of the electric ranges? Maybe to match the fridge? Ezra is definitely more fabulous than the ads with similar ranges. Awwe, Evelyn is so cute 😍!! Best wishes to all of you. It's a bit warm here with it being 84° inside as my air conditioning isn't conditioning the air very well. See you tomorrow.
Children and fire were a deadly combination right up until modern times - and even today in less developed parts of the world. Children were routinely burned by fires and hot stoves, and the grandparents of my generation all had horror stories of children knocking over oil lamps or falling into stoves or fireplaces. So yes, sitting that baby so close to the stove was a danger, but sadly it was so common that people didn't even think about it. 😢😢
@@suemeonyoutube thank you for pointing all this out which either I didn't know ( most likely) or forgot but waoh!! As a former helicopter mom my kids fortunately didn't get my fears by osmosis but when my grandchildren were little I was still like that when around them. Mothers as one in the picture wanted their tots to be warm which was a good instinct. My mom wasn't like me & I certainly survived going out wherever as a child & returning at sunset when street lights came on. I have no idea where my overprotectiveness that was beyond common sense came in.
Love those parlor stoves. Good for tiny houses.
You can still get those stoves because most people don't know what they are and consequently don't recognize them when they see them in antique stores or yard sales. I have an old portable kerosene parlor stove that I once used when we had a power outage in the middle of a bad snowstorm. It worked fine - a bit dirty, but it beat the heck out of being in a 20-degree house for two days. 😁😁
Good morning Sue and Audie!
Hello Colleen how are you doing and how’s the weather over there? I was going through comments when I came across your post.. I would love to be a friend, would be nice if you can add me up, i hope you don’t mind?
Good morning! I imagine you're dealing with the same heat wave we're coping with. Stay cool!!! ☺☺
@@suemeonyoutube we are and there is no relief in sight. 😣 storms happen but only add to the humidity and never cool things off. How is Audie dealing with it?
Good morning Sue & Audie
Hello Kathie how are you doing and how’s the weather over there? I was going through comments when I came across your post.. I would love to be a friend, would be nice if you can add me up, i hope you don’t mind?
Good morning! 😸😸
Hello Sue with this load shedding in south africa I think we must all get back to these old stoves lol I had one I am 71 love your channel south africa 🇿🇦
You're right - there are parts of the world in which the idea of using the kind of power it takes to run the self-clean cycle on a range is simply unacceptable. I do think one answer is older appliances (as long as they are energy efficient), and smaller appliances. 😉
@@suemeonyoutube yes u right sue we still in winter they say no more load shedding till 29 July i really hope so sue stay well love your channel south africa 🇿🇦
Sue, I have loved all of these videos so much. I have not commented in a while, but I have been watching. All of these videos have been so interesting and educational. Thank you.
Thank you. ☺☺
My grandmother had an oven like the yellow one in her summer kitchen. She did her canning out there.
☺☺
Would love to see your stove again. Beautiful.
I need to do a whole video on Ezra - how I found him, the cleaning and restoration, and especially how I converted from kerosene to propane (it was very easy). 😉
@@suemeonyoutube I hope so. Ezra is gorgeous. I'll be waiting! 🥰
@@suemeonyoutube Sue, has the vid on Ezra been done? Did I miss it?
We had a big cream "Aga" in the 50s here in UK. Several ovens with hotplates on top fuelled by coal.
I've seen those - they were top of the line pieces back in the day... ☺☺
@@suemeonyoutubeThat figures, It was in the house they were renting. It was a huge mansion with a ballroom, stables and a peacock house in the garden. It was falling down at one end, we lived at the other end, but as children loved to explore the ramshackle part with holes in the floors and the roof. Health&safety would have had a fit.
Good day Sue. I am interested in today's video. I am familiar with the woodstoves. My mother cooked on a woodstove for many years. In one of the pictures you showed there was an area to the right that would have been a reservoir for water. So there was always hot water available not for drinking but cleaning up. The kettle on top was used for hot beverages. You also used the wood for different types of fire. Some types of wood for hot fires or others for maintaining the even oven temperature. And then there was cleaning out the ashes. I do remember that and shaking the bin that the ashes went into to remove them. You always had to be very careful when you disposed of ashes that there no embers which could start another fire that was unwanted. In your pictures it is quite apparent that there were no countertops that had to be washed afterward. My oh my how things have changed!!!!
And saving the ashes for soap isn't done as much .
Cooking on a wood stove is quite different from cooking on a modern stove, but our grandmothers managed to bake cakes, set custards, and fry chicken just as easily as we can today - they just used different techniques. 😉
3 cheers for Evelyn 👏👏👏.
She is such a cutie. I need to make a new slide show of her. I bet people would love to see what she looks like now that she'll be heading off to school soon. ☺☺
@@suemeonyoutube yes!!!
Good Morning Sue; When my husband grew up in the South , kerosene stoves for cooking were used. My father in law had brought home a glass jug of moonshine the size of the ones used on the stoves , and my husband a young boy put it on the stove where the kerosene jug went. My father in law was quite uncontrollable over that incident ! I grew up in Taunton, Massachusetts the home of Glenwood Stoves. The iron for them was mined from the Taunton River . Great day to all!
Yes, kerosene was a popular stove fuel. I wouldn't want to use it today - even though my Ezra was built to run on kerosene - but it's very easy to convert those stoves to propane. 😃😃
Good morning from South Carolina! Wonderful! More appliances, I love old appliances !
☺☺
Oh my goodness! thank you for using my Ezra in your video...Brenda
i am thoroughly enjoying these so informative videos - wonder what will be the next appliance - vacuum cleaners?? - washing machines?? - love all your info and history - if i could have one item in my kitchen it would be a hoozer?? - that is a fascinating cabinet to me and i wouldnt let it go - my daughters would get to fight over it when i am gone
My grandmother cooked on a wood stove until the 30s when the REC brought electricity to her farmhouse. She swore that wood stoves cooked better than any gas or electric range.
I love history and this video is spot on, very interesting and informative. Thank you
Hello Sue, fascinating to look at the evolution of heating/cooking facilities. Both my grandmothers in England had an open coal fire in the main (and only) reception room with ovens/plate warmers on either side of the chimney breast. Heat was distributed by sliding metal plates. Hob/cooking range cooking was done using gas in the kitchen. Heating was probably needed on average 9 months of the year. The gas hob/cooking range provided a stopgap in the summer. One of these ranges was in full use in the 1960s, one of the ovens on the other was only used to warm my granny's nightdress. Did these heat/cooking combos also exist in American kitchens?
I love this video❤️❤️
Thank you. ☺☺
I needed a new stove and looked into ELMIRA STOVE WORKS, out of my price range, but beautiful appliances. If you have a chance look them up.
I am very familiar with those stoves - gorgeous. In fact, I think one of the ranges I used in Sunday's video is an Elmira. If I were you, I'd take a look at real vintage stoves - much less expensive and many of them are still in good working order. 😉
She is so Cute ♥️♥️♥️🌺🌺
I use Evelyn as a reminder to all our viewers that even though this isn't a children's channel, children do watch the videos and occasionally read the comments. Keeps us all on track. 😉
Thank you for this video I love learning from you
Good evening Sue,
Been waiting up for you
Compulsive viewing .
Hope we’ll get to see your stove again
Just another great show . I’ll say it again ….it’s better than going
to the movies
The Victorian bedroom stoves are fascinating .
And there’s your Ezra .
The baby’s getting to be a big girl .
Thank you .
I plan to make a video about Ezra - how I found him, how I restored him, got the info about him, and how I converted him from kerosene to propane. I think more people would salvage these great old ranges if they knew how easy it was. ☺☺
I have a universal wood cooking stove that my mom actually cooked on for 2 weeks during a storm. Unfortunately, when our home burned, scavengers broke in and stole the hardware (stove plates, etc) Still have the body of the stove and the warming ovens above but it is rusted. Do you know how I can find out if it is salvagable. I would love to try to restore it for at least decorative and I do love the green and cream.. I live in Oregon. Thank you
Why did you name your stove "Ezra"?( new viewer!)
He is a Sears E-Z-est Way range, so I just took the first two letters and ran with them. I know it's silly, but I do name my inanimate objects - but only when they're very special. 😉
Sue Me......I don't think it is silly at all! I used to name a few of my cars if they were special to me! My 1986 CJ Jeep was named "Black Beauty" because it was glossy black and powerful (to me). I would call, her "Beauty" for short! God Bless!
Is the school house a museum or what?
No, it's just an 1852 one-room schoolhouse that I am saving from the wrecking ball. 😁😁
@@suemeonyoutube what exactly will it be used for? Is it on your house property? I've collected antiques all my life.
