Inarguably one of the best stoves ever made. O’Keefe & Merritt stoves from the 50s are the only stove that truly compare with the Chambers model C. They are the Rolls Royce & Bentley of the stove world – which one you prefer depends on how you drive (or cook), but the quality is indisputable.
But this one is something even more special than your average OKM: It has 6 burners, two ovens and two broilers!
O’Keefe stovetop burners feature super-low simmering ability and are incredibly responsive.
As a California brand, we don’t see them out East often, but with shipping available all over the world, who knows where it will wind up next?
