Sounds like the Hotpoint electric my grandmother had. That sunken burner
was called a "deep well". Her flat, open work space was between the burners.
I'll bet your Dad's was white w/black accents. No "avocago" or "harvest
gold" in those days.

And my current electric is a smooth top. I'd just as soon have the older
exposed coils. And have the oven(s) as a two-stack wall mountede affair.
That's what I had in the Redneck Ranch and I really liked those wall-
mounted ovens.
