The the life of an appliance in Block Island is brutish and short. Well, not that brutish—my previous stove was seldom used by tenants in its approximately 10 months of use (spread over five years). Nonetheless, it went on the fritz. The electronic control pad doesn't respond well to the moisture here, I guess. Still, it lasted three years longer than the last refrigerator, which responded to the power fluctuations by blowing its compressor.
I vowed to buy the cheapest, simplest stove without electronic controls. And did, on line with Home Depot (free delivery!). And was dismayed to find that the stovetop grids are gray rather than black. Couldn't tell from the pics. So now I'm thinking spray paint.
Black shoe polish, it used to work for somebody we know.
