I have my Grandparents set and would not give it up because it does not go with the house. A little howards restor-a-finish and it will look new. It is in fantastic condition and is not that common. It was a costly unit new at $125.00 and grill clocth can be replaced easily. The chassis is really clean... Like really clean Icon_lol

I would not value it high but out west you could ask $200.00 and see what happens.
