I just went through this. My 14 year old Frigidaire range lost its oven, and its self ignition, was going to be $700 for a partial fix and some parts were NLA.

Most modern gas ranges have circuit boards, which I think is too bad. I was told by my repair guy that they tend to last 10 years. Parts get discontinued. I would try to avoid touchscreens, displays, program modes, etc as much as possible.

You can get gas ranges with no electronics. Wolf, Bluestar, American Range, maybe some others. These are higher end brands. Or a vintage O'Keefe & Merrit or similar, either big bucks "restored" or $300 on Craigslist.

Don't try to get something by XMas, it is too short a time. Limp through the holidays and get something when you have more time. You can get by without one burner.

I ended up with an American Range 36" open burner range. It is fantastic, big heat, zero electronics (just switches, fan, etc - simple stuff).
