new drip pans
I tried to get black drip pans to replace the ones I had which were well in need of changing. They no longer make the black so I found the silver ones on your site and thought for the price I would try them. They are wonderful and very reasonably priced. I ended up buying a spare set for later. Thank you for such great products and prices.

As easy as it could be
I have worked in maintenance field most of my adult life and all aspects and to change the oven door gasket was no challenge what so ever. It took longer to find my needle nose pliers to remove the old gasket clips and then re-install the new gasket. Maybe 10 minutes total

Used stove was missing 1 leg.
My used stove had been dropped by the previous owner. While I could live with the minor scratches on one side the wooden shims holding up one corner were annoying. A new leveling leg was less than $2. I used a pair of needle nose pliers to straighten the mounting hole and screwed the new leg in. This used stove was originally $2000 but I bought it for $999. the new leg plus shipping was about $10. What a deal.

Oven would't heat up/ wouldn't heat to proper temperature
I opened the door partway to remove the door. Then I removed the bottom heat shield plate by pulling it towards me and lifting it up. I removed the two screws holding on the igniter, then with the the disconnect removed the old ignitor. I plugged in the new ignitor, replaced the screws, replaced the heat shield, replaced the oven door, and was done in ten minutes.

Oven would not heat up
I lifted up the bottom insert of the inside of my oven and then followed the instructions on this site. Originally I purchased the wrong igniter, so I would encourage you to look at yours and make sure you are buying the right part. I am a complete novice. Even with my purchase debacle, my oven was back up and running within 5 days (total cost was $60). Do this even if you are scared of a screwdriver. Just remember to turn off the gas first. Make sure you've turned off the gas by trying to light a burner (if your burners are otherwise working correctly). If it doesn't light, the gas is off and there is nothing to be afraid of. The igniter is far enough away from the gas pipe that I wasn't afraid of breaking it and once I saw how the oven was put together, I wasn't afraid of working on it. And, if you need to return anything, the return policy is awesome.
