Hi Delphini, I tend not to follow dollar value of these icons of our past, instead focus on their heritage value, so can’t really help you with prices. I think you’d have to check recent sales records from eBay or second hand dealers to find out a current value for your stove.

Hi there, I have a green one that I ripped out of an old house I purchased. I still have it and adore it…..it has all it’s bits and pieces including the flue and top shelf, it also is clean as a whistle…..We have just built a new house and don’t have a need for it…..thinking of selling it. I wonder what it would be worth?

Hi Kelly, yes, it has been very well loved and looked after thanks to Eve’s TLC. You really don’t see blue ones very often. I rented a charming house in Greenwich with friends in the 80s which had a blue Kooka – in pretty good nick if I rmember correctly. I remember it made excellent pastry, back in my quiche-making days! There’s something about out new ovens that simply doesn’t compare.
cheers, Jacqui

I love how this is positively spotless – despite years and years of use. The blue is lovely. I’ve seen others that are green, but the blue is just beautiful! I am visiting an old friend tonight, and the last time I saw him (some twenty years ago!) he had one in his kitchen. I’m hoping it’s still there.
How is yours going?
