Default OKeefe Merritt Stove won't heat up

Sir, you have no sense of style and class. O'Keefe& Merritt made
fine stoves that are sought by collectors. Parts are still available

I have to agree with Norm. If these stoves are so great, why is the
company out of business?


The OP has a 1916 home and a vintage stove will look good and perform
as well as most new stoves. If you followed the links, you'll see
that you would lose that bet on parts availability.

Take a few minutes and learn what the past has to offer. New does not
always mean better.


Thanks but I prefer a Whirlpool Accubake convection range.
