We bought a home and this trusty stove came with it, 14 years of dedicated cooking and the proof is in the puddin! She still works. If anyone has an idea as to how old this really is I'd like to know....not interested in selling or appraisal, just curious as to how many years of family meals this has made. They sure don't make quality anymore!

Cannot see the brand name and why is it lying on its side?
Hi Mustangtony, It is not on it's side the pictures just loaded that way. It is an "Enterprise" brand.
Jojo - I knew it wasn't on its side :) - I just assume everyone is able to rotate their pictures like I can. Is there a broiler section at the bottom under the oven?
I can see its a 4-burner electric. There should be a build plate riveted on it somewhere, either inside the side of the broiler section or on the back - You may have to move it away from the wall to see the back. The build plate would have the model#, serial#, and possibly the date of manufacture. The only "Enterprise" brand manufacturer I could find is in Canada.
Well there is a bulls sticker ... Serial 93709, model 130WS, made at the Enterprise foundry Co Ltd. Sackville N.B. Canada
Build. Not bulls.
Looks pretty clean. I'm clueless though grounded outlet make me think after mid-60's, I think that's when they were required.
Enterprise Foundry was considered to be the largest privately owned and second largest Canadian owned Stove Company in Canada. In 1984, the assets of Enterprise Foundry and Enamel and Heating Products Limited (formerly Fawcett Foundry) were combined and became Enterprise Fawcett, still in business today. - Try to contact the company and maybe they can give you the manufacture date based on the model# and serial#
It does have a 3 prong outlet on it, But it was hard wired in straight to the panel box with no ground wire
The Enterprise Fawcett co had a fire in 2012 and the site says closed until further notice ...
