Hillerange Parts, trying to make a decision...

T37Chef · #1 (**permalink**) 10-07-2008

Anyone have a source for Hillerange parts. Our range needs and "overhaul" and I'm debating whether to do the repairs or just bite the bullet and buy a new Force 10 at the show?

There's also the safety issue of the old range?

I dealt with them 4/5 years ago and they were outstanding.

I'm facing the same decision and just found the website that gtod25 posted. On the site it lists Viking Boat Supplies in Eastport as a service center. Right now I'm in Eastport and plan to stop by tomorrow and see what kind of help I can get. Need to hurry cause the boat show is just two days away and I'm weakening ..

For what it's worth, we just gave our Hillerange to a metal recycler and got a new Force 10 propane gimbaled stove-top. We freed up space under the sink with the alcohol pressure tank gone, and now am installing the propane supply apparatus which can be a bit of a PITA on an older boat with no dedicated propane locker.

I'm almost positive Viking is long gone out of business.

Yeah, found that out today. Guess Seaward needs to update their website.

Fawcetts has Force 10's on sale...if I remember it was $1100 for a two burner and $1200 for the three burner.

Checked out a Tasco Stove today at the boat show...

Anyone have experience with these? Build quality, reputation, etc...

I like the look the Force 10's better but these are a few $$$ less and have some nice little features, like an oven temp dial

I also looked at the Tasco stove and thought it was well built. BTW, I have a Magic Chef 3 burner stove plus oven on my boat.
