110% new here, I have a Whirlpool super capacity 465, and it's been working like a champ for 3-4 years now... However I do a lot of cast iron cooling and the extra heat over the years has taken my white as snow top and turned it a dark almond / black and NASTY color as my daughter put's it :) !!

I have looked online for a bit and cannot find a replacement stovetop, I had the bright idea of sanding it down and have givin up on the project quickly due to the intense amount of labor required. Anyone have this problem or know where I can find a new top for the stove?? I would pitch it and get a new stove all together but have had no other issues with this unit and belive that as America we throw away WAY to many good items!! Thanks for the help if anyone can point me in the right directions!!

It's a model SF367LEMQ, had a heck of the time finding the data plate, never thought to look in the lower storage drawer!! Thanks for the help Jeff!!

So using that model number and checking out repairclinic.com, I found the replacement, but 100.20 is a bit steep or am I wrong??? This stove NEW was like 200 - 250.00, I find it hard to belive that the stovetop alone is almost 1/2 of that amount, anyone have any tips on getting a cheaper one?? Thanks again for the help!!

SF367LEMQ

I found SF367LEMQ0 & SF367LEMQ1

I found the cooktop a little cheaper linked here (http://www.pcappliancerepair.com/cgi-bin/promote-detail.cgi?affiliate_id=AppAid&item=8195547&brand=WPL).

This stove NEW was like 200 - 250.00,

Up here with me they are 600+
