Even if you only assume a time span of 10 - 15 years (when you will move in with one of your children, LOL), that new range will be cheap if you buy a good one. If you buy a cheap one, it might be more expensive, because it might break down sooner. So, go for the good stuff and enjoy. Although I see your point of view, try this line of reasoning:

Also, the light and timer on the microwave don't work. They're all 28 years old, so it's little wonder. Obviously, I don't cook that much any more. But I really am going to have to get out the wallet and buy new appliances. I just hate to part with the money. Our stove is a JennAir cook top, with a grill. Our oven/microwave is a built-in combination. Replacing all of it's going to be expensive (or at least to my cheap way of thinking).
